Gumby on Air!

On a Podcast that is, check him out:

ProMMA Podcast ADCC Preview Show

THE INFO brings you a special Abu Dhabi Combat Club 2009 preview show. It was a Ralph Gracie reunion of sorts as “Fast Eddie” Constantine was joined by On The Mat owner and Gracie black belt Alan “Gumby” Marques as well as AKA grappling coach and Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu guru, Dave Camarillo. These grappling experts broke down all of the weight classes (male and female) and broke down the Jacare versus Drysdale super fight. “Gumby” and Dave also spoke out on the state of grappling and where they see the sport in 10 years. Roger Gracie, Marcello Garcia and “Xande” Ribeiro were also hot topics during this grappler’s round table.

    Joey R"Being new to BJJ, I found an awesome introduction to it in a very welcoming atmosphere at Heroes. Very well instructed through Gumby and Mike. Still a novice but have already noticed changes such as generally feeling better mentally and having more energy. Central Downtown SJ, it couldn’t be in a better spot.  "
