So, I'm moving in a bit, and one of the things I always wish I'd kept up with was a martial art. I took one when I was in my mid-teens and had to stop due to working crazy split shifts. I'm now out of shape as shit and since I'm moving somewhere I wont know anyone, I was wondering if anyone knew a good database of studios that weeds out mcdojo type places.
I'm not looking to get ripped or beat up people at bars. Just an activity to keep busy and maybe meet some people after my exodus.
Judo would be fun, but everything I've ever heard about American Judo studios is they suck, always mix in a bunch of TKD and stuff because high kicking is cool bro!
I live in Bellvue (west nashville), and I know there is some kind of martial arts studio on the intersection of 70 south and old hickory, but I'm not sure what kind....
You might also want to check out On the Mat which has a database of BJJ gyms. That's how I was able to find one even in Korea.
Yeah on the mat's database is great. If you find a place you are curious about you could post on the forums for more info too. Some decent dudes there.

Ask if the club competes. If they do, can't go wrong.
