Wow, that Really WAS Spectacular!

December 15, 2007

My dad took me to see the Black Belt Spectacular today. Although I’m only a purple belt, I was excited to see all the red belts performing on stage.

One of the great things about our school is that we are allowed to grow and learn as we get to be better students and higher belt levels. I’m especially excited about the Dream Team, and having the opportunity to learn broadsword and bo staff techniques.

I’ve only been a student since 2005, but I’m looking forward to receiving my black belt someday. I’ve made some good friends here at the school. It is like my second home!

Ft. Lauderdale Trip

December 13, 2007

I recently had the pleasure of traveling to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to train at Martial Arts University International, where I picked up some awesome training. Had the pleasure to learn from Professor Gene Dunn, a Renzo Gracie Black Belt, who shared his outstanding BJJ warm-up routine. We have implemented that routine already…amazingly you can get really warmed up for class!!! I also picked up some awesome basic BJJ skills and drills that we will be covering during the next few weeks…

Also we have made an alliance with Sensei Jason Gabriele, who is a dynamic and high level Martial Arts Performer…he will be visiting us in February 2008 to share with us his knowledge of Performance Martial Arts…I am very excited about this…

I would like to extend a “Great Job” to our Junior Orange/Green Belt class for their great spirit, hustle and enthusiasm…way to go…keep up the great work!!!
