Big Uncle’s Blueprint: How India Can Build Real Martial Arts Communities 🇮🇳

India has massive potential in MMA, boxing, jiu-jitsu, and Muay Thai — but right now, much of the scene is a joke internationally. Big Uncle wants to give young fighters a realistic, honest blueprint to change that and build something real.

Step 1: Train Overseas — Then Come Back

If you want India to produce fighters who can compete internationally, you need to leave:

Train in Thailand, Europe, the UK, the US, or anywhere the level is high

Spar and compete with real athletes

Learn technique, timing, flow, and sensitivity — not just brute strength

Then come back. That’s where the real work starts.

Step 2: Build Grassroots Clubs With Other Beginners

When you return:

Form clubs with other relative beginners

Keep fees minimal — just enough to cover the space

Sponsor people who can’t afford it

Support development without turning it into a cult or pretending to be a guru

Affordable, grassroots meetups:

Get more people involved

Undercut charlatans

Build an honest, sustainable scene

Step 3: Safety Comes First — Before “Fighting”

Before you teach anyone how to fight, you must teach them how not to get injured. Combat sports will always have some injuries, but proper fundamentals drastically reduce risk.

Every beginner should learn:

How to break fall correctly — prevents serious wrist, elbow, shoulder, and back injuries

How to slip, move the head, and defend properly — not just sit there and trade punches

How to relax under pressure instead of panicking

How to avoid posting on arms or other dangerous reactions

Crazy injuries happen not from submissions or proper technique, but from:

Bad falls

Panicking

Just punching each other in the face without control

If someone has been training for a few months and doesn’t understand these concepts, that is a failure of the teacher, not the student. Even struggling students should at least have the concept in mind. Teaching these basics early keeps people safe and ensures long-term training.

Step 4: Stick to Basics — Teach What You Know

You cannot get in trouble if you:

Teach only what you know

Stick to fundamentals and techniques

Avoid claiming “secret moves” — there are none

High-level coaches from the US, Europe, and Southeast Asia openly share world-class material. Focus on learning together, being honest, and sharing knowledge instead of hoarding it.

Step 5: Invite Everyone — Open Mats Are Essential

A real community grows by being open:

Invite people from other clubs

Host open mats where everyone is welcome

Encourage cross-training

Drop the ego — there is no “leader,” only teammates

Open environments:

Raise the overall level of the sport

Build real networks

Kill fake authority and secrecy

Step 6: Teach Technical Rolling, Not Brute Force

This is critical for inclusivity and longevity:

Teach people to calm down and roll technically

Avoid relying on brute force during drills and flow rolling

Make it safe for females and smaller practitioners

Emphasize technique, sensitivity, and control

Big Uncle example:

I roll with my 60 kg wife while I’m 100 kg

Focus on defense, flow, and learning from difficult positions

Experiment and stay technical

Safe, technical rolling keeps people training and builds real skill.

Step 7: Hygiene and Health Are Non‑Negotiable

A gym is about health as much as skill:

Keep mats clean

Provide showers (even a bucket and body wash works)

Cut nails, maintain personal hygiene

Prevent skin infections

A clean environment attracts participants, builds trust, and ensures longevity.

Step 8: Don’t Make Excuses for Scammers

Stop protecting bullshit.

If someone claims:

100 fights → ask for proof

International experience → ask for videos

A belt → ask for photos

Affiliations → verify them

Respect your coach — but don’t grovel. This isn’t karate. No bowing, no cult behavior, no fake titles. If someone is truly high-level, the evidence will exist.

It’s fine to learn from hobbyists or lower-level practitioners — the problem is inflated ego and fake claims. Don’t tolerate it. Don’t make excuses. It reflects poorly on India internationally.

Step 9: Build a Culture of Honesty and Inclusion

Focus on grassroots development

Encourage cross-training, open mats, and collaboration

Be humble, patient, and consistent

Include everyone who wants to train

Share knowledge freely, without ego or secrecy

The fighters who leave, train internationally, and return to teach honestly are India’s future. Stick to honesty, basics, safety, technical rolling, hygiene, inclusivity, and verification, and the sport will grow naturally without scams or cult-like behavior.

ESL GAMES FOR GRADES 1–5

How to Survive Huge Public School Classes While Doing Almost Nothing

This is not a “best practices” blog.
This is how expat ESL teachers actually survive public schools with 40–60 kids, no resources, no AC, and zero support.

If you’re doing most of the work in class, you’re doing it wrong.

The goal is simple:

Kids run the games

Kids pick teams

Kids keep score

Kids argue

Kids correct each other

You just stand there and occasionally say “Point” or “No point.”

FIRST: THE RULES THAT SAVE YOUR LIFE

Write these on the board every class. Don’t explain them again.

1. Always pick ONE BOY and ONE GIRL.
If you don’t, they will fight. This is not a theory.

2. Students choose teams. You don’t.

3. Students keep score. You don’t.

4. Too loud = game stops immediately.

5. Winners get claps. Nothing else.

SETUP (DO THIS ONCE, THEN NEVER AGAIN)

Students Pick Teams

Point at one kid.
“You captain.”
Point at another kid.
“You captain.”

They choose teams.
You don’t interfere.
If someone cries, welcome to public school.

Students Keep the Points

Pick one kid per team:

“You score.”

They draw lines.
They add points.
If they cheat, the class will destroy them for you.

You do not touch the board again.

THE GAMES (ALL LOW EFFORT)

GAME 1: SLAP THE BOARD

(The King, But Also the Problem)

Best for: Vocabulary
Grades: 1–5
Prep: Write words or draw pictures
Effort level: Low

How it works

1. Write 6–10 words on the board.

2. Two teams.

3. Pick one boy, one girl to come up.

4. You say the word.

5. First student to slap it gets the point.

Students:

Cheer

Argue

Keep score

You:

Say the word

Say “point”

⚠️ REALITY CHECK: SLAP THE BOARD CAN GET VIOLENT

Kids sprint.
Kids shove.
Kids slap hands.
Kids argue about who touched first.

Big Uncle played Slap the Board almost every day for five years in public schools.
It kept classes alive.

But toward the end of Big Uncle’s ESL teaching career, it started getting:

Pushy

Aggressive

Borderline violent

So Big Uncle upgraded.

OPTIONAL SWITCH: THROW THE STICKY BALL AT THE WORD

(Same Game, Less Violence)

This is just Slap the Board, but smarter.

What you need

One sticky ball

How it works

1. Write words or pictures on the board.


2. Two teams.


3. Pick one boy, one girl.


4. Each student gets one throw.


5. You say the word.


6. They throw the sticky ball at it.


7. First correct hit = point.

Why it’s better

No slapping hands

No pushing

Less fighting

Still competitive

Still fun

Still zero prep

If admin walks in, it also looks more “controlled,” which matters more than it should.

GAME 2: SIMON SAYS

(You Talk, They Police Each Other)

Best for: Commands
Prep: None
Effort level: Almost zero

You say:

“Simon says stand up.”

“Simon says touch your head.”

No “Simon says”?
They freeze.

Kids call out cheaters.
You don’t argue.

GAME 3: HOT SEAT

(Students Teach Each Other)

Best for: Vocabulary
Prep: Write words
Effort level: Minimal

1. One student sits with back to the board.

2. Team describes the word.

3. Student guesses.

Rules:

No saying the word

Switch boy/girl every round

You don’t explain the word.
You don’t help.
They figure it out.

GAME 4: LINE UP GAME

(Controlled Chaos)

You say: “Line up by height.”
or
“Line up by age.”

Kids argue.
Kids fix the line.
Kids correct each other.

When done, you say: “Correct?”

Class decides.
Scorekeeper gives the point.

GAME 5: RUN & WRITE

(Burn Energy So They Shut Up Later)

Best for: Writing
Prep: Board
Effort level: Low

1. Two teams.

2. Pick one boy, one girl.

3. You say a word.

4. They run, write it, run back.

Class checks spelling for you.
If it’s wrong, they scream.
You nod.

GAME 6: YES / NO GAME

(Grade 4–5 Gold)

One student in front.
Class asks questions.

Rule:
They cannot say yes or no.

Someone slips?
Other team yells “POINT!”

You don’t judge.
The class does.

GAME 7: ROCK PAPER SCISSORS WORDS

Best for: Self-running chaos
Grades: 1–5

How to play

1. Students pair up.

2. Rock Paper Scissors.

3. Winner says a word or sentence.

4. Loser sits.

Repeat until one winner.

You do nothing.

POINT SYSTEM (LET THEM RUN IT)

On the board:

Team A | Team B
+1 / −1

Good behavior = +1

Too loud = −1

You point.
They update.

If the score gets unfair, the kids will riot for you.

FINAL TRUTH ABOUT PRIMARY ESL

Boys want to win.

Girls want fairness.

Mix them or suffer.

Games beat worksheets every time.

Control beats everything else.


If you leave class exhausted, you messed up.

If the kids are tired and you’re fine,
you’re doing public school ESL correctly.

This system works:

With 40–60 kids

No assistant

No tech

No prep

No fucks given


This is how people last years, not months.

The Biggest Bullshido Fraud I’ve Ever Personally Seen 🇮🇳

I’ve trained all over the world. I’ve seen bad gyms, fake lineages, inflated records, and plenty of nonsense.
But nothing I’ve personally witnessed comes close to a place calling itself the Academy of Martial Sciences in Mysore, India.

This is my firsthand experience and opinion, and in my opinion this place is the clearest example of bullshido I’ve ever encountered.

The head coach claimed to be a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blue belt. When I asked to roll with him, he refused. That alone tells you everything you need to know.

He also claimed to have over 100 fights. No verifiable record. No known promotions. No credible opponents. Just claims.

Then it crossed from exaggeration into outright fantasy.

His son claimed he fought Khabib Nurmagomedov’s nephew. No footage. No event name. No record. Just casually stated, as if people wouldn’t immediately question something that absurd.

And then came the most ridiculous claim of all.

He claimed to have witnessed a fight in Thailand where fighters dipped their hands in glass.

This is not history.
This is not tradition.
This is not real.

It is literally copied from the Jean-Claude Van Damme movie Kickboxer. The exact same scene. A movie plot passed off as real-life experience. Total bullshit.

At that point it became obvious this gym isn’t exaggerating reality — it’s inventing it.

Instead of legitimate competition or pressure-tested training, this coach created his own MMA belt system so he could charge students for belts.

Read that again:
Belts. In. MMA.

There is little to no sparring. No consistent resistance. No real pressure testing. Students pay large yearly fees and then pay again to “rank up” in a system that exists purely to extract money.

I rolled with people who had trained under him for years. They were young, strong, and athletic — and had no functional skill. That’s not an insult to them. It’s proof of terrible coaching. These kids are being robbed of their prime athletic years, sold fantasy instead of fundamentals.

To be clear: they do compete in India. The problem is that the overall level in India is extremely low, with maybe one or two legitimate clubs in the entire country. Competing only inside that bubble, under fake systems, creates a false sense of ability that collapses the moment it meets real opposition.

Then there’s the cult behavior.

Students are required to speak Thai to him, even though he isn’t Thai and has never fought professionally in Thailand. They’re expected to apologize to him if they’re sick or miss training, as if he’s some kind of authority figure rather than a coach.

That’s not discipline.
That’s manipulation.

Every gym I personally experienced in Mysore had scummy elements — but this one was by far the worst. Fake credentials. Movie scenes presented as real fights. Young people paying serious money for imaginary progress.

In my opinion, this is bullshido in its purest form:
fantasy over reality, hierarchy over honesty, and kids losing years of their lives they’ll never get back.

Why I Keep Telling People to Look at Albania 🇦🇱

Alright, let me put this plainly.

Are you looking for a European lifestyle without open borders, without chaos, without rampant mass migration, without criminality, without tents everywhere, without people shooting up in public—or at least minimal vagrancy?

A place that still has a national identity, a real culture, and people who actually feel like they belong where they live?

And on top of that, a place where the cost of living isn’t completely detached from reality like it is in Western Europe?

That’s why I keep telling people to look at Albania.

I’m not saying it’s perfect. It’s not. It’s still a bit wild. But that’s kind of the point.

Albania is one of the cheapest places in Europe with real Mediterranean access. Not “technically near the sea” access—actual beaches, coastline, and towns where people live real lives. You can still find inexpensive beachfront property, which is basically extinct everywhere else in Europe.

Tirana, the capital, is booming. Construction everywhere. New cafes, new businesses, new money coming in. The vibe honestly reminds me a lot of Southeast Asia during a growth phase—fast, chaotic, opportunistic. Things are moving. Nothing feels frozen.

And yeah, it’s still a little rough around the edges. But that also means it’s still free. Less bureaucracy, less micromanagement, less social engineering. People mind their business. You live your life.

That’s where Big Uncle’s concierge service comes in.

If you’re looking to retire, invest, buy real estate, or just get out of the West and land on your feet somewhere sane, here’s how it works:
you pay a one-time consulting fee. That’s it.
No monthly charges. No upsells every five minutes. No getting nickeled and dimed.

You pay once, and I connect you into an extensive, real network on the ground here in Albania—lawyers, real estate, fixers, people who actually get things done.

No Reddit fantasy. No YouTube tourism bullshit. Real connections.

This place isn’t for everyone. But if you’re an investor, retiree, digital nomad, or just someone who wants an easier, quieter life without the insanity, Albania is absolutely worth considering.

If you’re done pretending the West is “temporarily broken” and starting to realize this might just be the new normal—yeah, maybe it’s time to look elsewhere.

That’s why I’m here. That’s why I keep talking about Albania.

And if you want help doing it right the first time, Big Uncle’s concierge service exists for exactly that.

MARTIAL ARTS IN INDIA: A CIRCUS OF CHARLATANS

I’ve trained all over the world, but I have never seen anything like India’s martial arts scene. Outside of Sikkim, it’s a complete circus.

The so-called “gurus” are controlling, greedy, and build entire systems to extract as much money as possible from their students. They claim belts in BJJ—but most of them don’t even understand what BJJ actually is. They make wild claims, like they’ve fought hundreds of times, but their skill level is shockingly low. People train for years and still don’t know to not look down while wrestling or even basic fundamentals like how to shrimp, yet they’re walking around wearing brown belts and claiming affiliations they don’t have.

Many gyms rob their students of their youth. Kids dedicate months or years thinking they’re becoming good fighters, but they’re having their time wasted. I’ve seen gyms charge people months upfront and make them do “Mr. Miyagi” nonsense—punching the air, one-two, one-two—for months without sparring or learning anything. In real BJJ or real martial arts, you spar almost immediately, even if it’s controlled. Here? You pay, and you get nothing.

MMA, Muay Thai, Western boxing—none of these have belts. Yet these gyms invent ranks, fees, rules, and hierarchies to squeeze money from students while knowing almost nothing themselves.

And the egos? Insane. These “gurus” are terrified of me. They try to hide me from their students because they don’t want anyone to see what real grappling looks like or how easily their nonsense collapses. They try to create distinctions like what I do is “different from MMA,” even though I’ve had Muay Thai fights, trained with pros, and have 14 years of BJJ, seven years of striking, and 15 years bouncing. I’m not a UFC fighter—just someone who actually knows what he’s doing. And that alone intimidates them.

The only honest place I saw was Sikkim—good people, open about their level, with real boxing and striking. Everywhere else? Scammy sideshow artists, cult-leader types, and charlatans who would get folded in the U.S., Brazil, Thailand—anywhere outside this bubble.

Big Uncle’s advice to any Indian kid who actually wants to be good:
Leave.
Go to Thailand, Europe, or the States. Thailand is probably the cheapest. Train somewhere real. Bring that knowledge back home and put these clowns out of business.

The UK 🇬🇧 is becoming more authoritarian. Jury trials—the cornerstone of British justice—are being removed. This isn’t just a small legal tweak; it’s an attack on history, culture, and the freedoms that generations fought to protect. It’s a clear signal: the people are now considered the enemy of the state. The government is putting ideology above common sense, and citizens are being sidelined in a system that used to value their voice.

If you’re British and have a degree in anything, now is the time to consider your options. Big Uncle can help you secure work in China or Vietnam, whether it’s professional teaching roles or low-responsibility TEFL jobs. If you don’t have a degree, we can still help you—but your options and the way the situation looks will be a bit different. Either way, with the right support, your experience abroad can be vastly different from that of local citizens. With a strong passport and currency, you have opportunities for freedom, stability, and respect that simply aren’t available at home.

Asia, in many ways, still appreciates European culture. People notice your skills, your professionalism, and your presence. In Vietnam, for example, no one will arrest you for quietly praying or expressing yourself peacefully. You’ll have more time, more freedom in your daily life, and the chance to focus on what matters: your career, your financial independence, and your personal growth.

This isn’t a perfect fix—no place is—but the contrast is real. In the UK, your taxes fund authoritarian projects, and your freedoms are slowly being eroded. Why stay and fund a system that doesn’t value you? Take your talents where they’re appreciated. Make money. Live freely. Be proud of who you are.

Reach out to Big Uncle, Reborn Abroad, Based Expat Consulting, and let us help you take that step.

Thinking About Teaching in China? A Real-World Perspective. 🇨🇳

If you notice I’m wearing a Vietnam shirt in the photo for this post, there’s no deeper meaning behind it. That’s simply what I was wearing at the time—I had just come from Vietnam before deciding to spend time in China again for the second time.

I’ve worked extensively in both countries, and they remain two of the strongest ESL markets in the world. That said, they operate very differently.

China is a complicated market. It’s not a place where you can simply show up and start looking for work like you might in parts of Southeast Asia. In China, everything needs to be organized before you arrive—documents, contracts, approvals, and employer coordination. Preparation is not optional.

Despite the bureaucracy, China still offers a tremendous amount of opportunity for a certain type of person. If you’re a native English speaker with a degree in pretty much anything, and you have the patience and disposition to function in a more rigid system, China can be a strong option.

Vietnam also has an excellent ESL market, and even though I ultimately chose to return there, that decision came down to personal fit—not opportunity. For the right person, China absolutely still makes sense.

This is where Big Uncle and Reborn Abroad come in.

We offer no-nonsense expat consulting based on real experience. We don’t oversell countries, and we don’t pretend anywhere is perfect. We explain the positives and the negatives so you can make an informed decision before making a major move.

If you’re seriously considering teaching in China and want honest guidance instead of marketing fluff, reach out to your Big Uncle.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Bigger New Year Ahead 🎄 🇨🇽 🎅 🌲 🧑‍🎄

Big Uncle and Meesh want to wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays—whatever you celebrate—and most importantly, a healthy, successful, and prosperous New Year.

This time of year makes people reflect. On their work. Their lifestyle. And whether they’re actually living the life they want—or just running on autopilot.

Whether you’re looking to invest in Albania, start a business, retire abroad, or head to Southeast Asia to teach English—Vietnam, China, Thailand, Cambodia—Big Uncle’s got your back. Maybe it’s your dream restaurant. Maybe it’s a simpler life. Maybe it’s just getting out of the grind.

There is no perfect country. That doesn’t exist. But there are fast-emerging markets full of opportunity, real demand, and massive gaps—especially for native English speakers, entrepreneurs, and people willing to take a smart, calculated risk.

Even if things feel like they’re collapsing in the West, there are still parts of the world where opportunity is growing, not shrinking.

Life is short. Don’t lie to yourself. Be honest about what you want. Take chances. Be authentic. Take care of the people you love.

Make this New Year the one where you actually start the life you’ve been talking about. Big Uncle and Meesh are here to help reduce the risk, cut through the noise, and help you move forward with clarity.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year. God bless and stay safe.

Christmas Is for You — Not Vietnam 🇻🇳

It’s Christmas season. Foreigners fly home, take trips, or disappear altogether.
Vietnam doesn’t stop.

Schools stay open. Classes run as normal. And every year, the same thing happens: teachers leave “for a bit” and don’t come back. That creates gaps, cover shifts, fast hiring, and lowered barriers.

If getting into ESL in Vietnam is your ambition, this is one of the best windows of the year to do it.

Is teaching ESL the greatest job in the world? No. But it buys you time. It frees up your schedule. It gives you space to think, plan, and position your next move while earning in a strong currency environment.

If you’re a native speaker or EU non-native with a strong passport, options open up fast. If you have a degree, even better — more schools, more leverage, more negotiating power. If you don’t have a degree, it’s harder, but not impossible. Some employers will still facilitate or quietly look the other way.

Big Uncle built Reborn Abroad by staying in the country for years and building real relationships — HR, recruiters, schools, fixers. Once you’re on the ground and stable, opportunities start showing up simply because you’re there.

If you’re looking to make the new year a real reset, now’s the time. Reach out and let’s get you situated.
