Training Smart!

Hey guys and gals! I hope you all are doing well. Training at Core has really stepped up a notch, with the Muay Thai fights in June and NAGA coming to North Richland Hills in May...we have lots to prepare for. Which leads me into my first point. Training often and training smart. Often times when in the gym we tend to pick our favorite people to train with and those to stay away from for various reasons. This should simply not be the case.

Example, yesterday in Jiu Jitsu I worked technique with one of our top Jiu Jitsu students, Levi, and I must say that working through some trouble areas regarding the running escape from side mount really helped me out. He altered the technique just a bit and for me made the escape a little easier to perform. So, if there's someone you don't normally train with in class...grab them next time and don't be afraid to ask them how they do a particular technique...it just might help out your game. Until next time.

Warrior Kids Program


Things are getting exciting with our New Little Warriors and Warrior Kids program at Core Fight Academy. We have 10 students now and we are growing. They will all be doing their stripe test at the end of the month to continue showing their progress in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This is going to be an exciting 2010, and we will be entering our students in competitions in the very near future. Keep posted for updates.
