to our last seminar with Master . We were in the midst of a reno, but that didn’t stop us! This is the longest we’ve gone without an in-person visit from him - and after one of the hardest hitting times Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has seen.

But we’re still here! When things are tough, you get tougher (if you don’t quit).

Nov 13 - Self Defense Seminar - Okotoks // 3 Days Left! // Have your registered yet? Hurry up if you haven’t! Link 🔗https://linktr.ee/satoriwellnessstudio Save when you sign up with a friend👫🏻 Open to women, men, teens, families. Been talking a lot about the hair grabs lately because it’s a typical technique I share in these seminars because of how common it is in attack situations. In the grand scheme of techniques, it higher up on the list of technical ability - to understand HOW one is to maneuver when restricted by head - or how to adapt when first attempts don’t work. There are countless scenarios (not just what is shown in a 1-minute video! Ie. 1) Attacker could be striking with other arm; 2) Attacker could be holding hair with both arms; 3) Attacker could be taller and hard to move; 4) Altercation could move to the ground prematurely. The goal is NOT to be a 1-trick pony or to create a false sense of security. The goal is to be well-rounded and well-conditioned to all the scenarios that could exist- to be well-prepared, and build confidence (physically and mentally) through hard work and consistent practice. If you’ve been on the fence, here is your sign. #empower #bjjblackbelt #artesuave #estilodevida #notmetoo #yyc #okotoks #selfdefense #fightlikeagirl🇨🇦

BJJ Black Belt, Coach Diana, is teaching in OKOTOKS next weekend - Saturday, November 13th 10:30-12:30pm.

Also sharing statistics on strangulation and the prevelance of it when we look at gender-based violence. Sharing additional statistics in light of November being Domestic & Family Violence Month.

S E L F D E F E N S E // Strangulation + Chokes // Sharing statistics on something that is way more common that you’d think. Do you find this disturbing? If you do, I encourage you to do something about it. SHARE IT. Do the work. Advocate. Listen. Show up. Learn Self Defense. Be an Ally. I threw in some statistics on domestic violence because, November, as you’d have it, is Domestic Violence & Family Violence Awareness Month. This is a 30-second reel, barely touching the surface to the abundance of problems that exist. These chosen days/months certainly help to raise awareness, but it’s desperately needed all the other days of the year as well. Did you know Alberta has the 3rd highest rate of domestic violence in Canada? I’ll always advocate for being #proactive, as I don’t wish for anyone to be a statistic. That said, there is NO shame if you’ve endured any of this. As you can see below - many people, many organizations - CARE. Myself included. For those interested, I’ll be hosting a Self Defense Seminar on Saturday, November 13th in OKOTOKS at @agbjj_tiltmma. Encouraging individuals, couples, and/or families to attend (keeping it to youth teens only as this is an adult-paced seminar) LINK🔗 https://linktr.ee/satoriwellnessstudio Here you see 2 techniques among many that I’ll be covering.

Throwback! It’s Coach Anderson’s birthday today (Sep 30). This was 2 years ago.. so you do the math 😜 He’s still in Masters 3 according to IBJJF standards;) Throwback to a time when we didn’t bat an eye at large group parties for birthdays…

Wishing a happy birthday to you, Coach!
