Yes I am hoping to get the chance to check out his classes, especially the ones designed for older people as they are more gentle. I think there is a lot of rolling on the ground which I would find a bit of a challenging, but I guess it’s useful to learn to fall well, so as not to hurt oneself.
As for checking out other styles, I guess the best way would be to visit some classes in a dojo close to you. There is a mixed martial arts style that uses techniques from lots of different styles.
