This Friday we will meet up at Marie Callender’s 160 E. Rincon St. Corona, CA 92879 for Kendall’s 12th birthday. They have Karaoke so it will be loud. We’ll save a spot for you if you’re going to train nogi first!
We had a great time last Friday celebrating Halloween early with over 50 people. The kids ran around and wore themselves out and we had a cake to celebrate Kendall and Tom’s birthdays.
There were almost 400 competitors at this tournament. The brackets were large. Everyone had exciting and challenging matches and fought very hard. We were reflecting that it has been less than a year since we left Temecula and implemented our full schedule. You guys have dedicated yourselves and impressed us beyond our expectations.
with gratitude, tom and holly

HERE ARE JUST A FEW PHOTOS OF THE DAY.
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR COMPETITORS FOUGHT SO HARD AND DISPLAYED PHENOMENAL PROGRESS WITH TECHNIQUE & CHARACTER! WE COULD NOT BE MORE PROUD OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU.
WINNING IS ALWAYS A FUN EXPERIENCE AND LOSING A MATCH IS BUT A MOMENTARY DISAPPOINTMENT LEADING TOWARD PROGRESS, PERSEVERANCE AND CREATIVITY. BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU PLAYERS DESERVE A GREAT DEAL OF CREDIT FOR SHOWING UP TO COMPETE, REGARDLESS OF THE RESULTS. OF COURSE IT IS IN OUR NATURE TO WANT TO WIN.
WE ARE PARTICIPATING TOGETHER IN THE GROWTH OF WHAT IS COMMONLY AGREED TO BE THE FASTEST GROWING SPORT IN THE WORLD. WITH THAT, WE ALL CARRY A LEADERSHIP ROLE AS THOSE WHO BECOME INTERESTED IN BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU AND MIXED MARTIAL ARTS WILL TURN TO US FOR INFORMATION, ADVICE AND GUIDANCE.
