Anything will help. It’s an expense to travel and compete, no one is as committed to this sport as Axe and his family! Any contribution would be greatly appreciated and who knows- maybe you will win the raffle!Thanks- COACH MIKE

Thursday was packed and a ton of fun, sparring, clinch work, pad work and some dodge ball to end it. Great job!
Another great week at Sentosa. Here the youth team is working their clinch skills under pressure!
Grappling, striking, one on one combat is a great way for a child and adult to learn to deal with adversity. No teammate is saving you or blocking for you or setting a screen. It’s do or tap or survive. Everyone needs to train one year, it will tell you something each time you look in the mirror, and will show you or your child how to dig deep! Bjj in AVONDALE, AZ at Sentosa!

Congrats Axe on your big day yesterday at the JJ WORLD LEAGUE Nationals. There are not many that train as hard and often as you and it’s showing in your improvement in practice and competition. This game has so many ups and downs, but your commitment to improvement no matter the outcome prior is something those that succeed in life carry with them. Congrats on a great performance and we are excited to continue to see the gains you make in the future both on and off the mats, keep it up and enjoy the ride .
Parents- sign your kids up for a BJJ class today! You will not regret it! Good job this week team! Look at them get at it!

Had a in class tournament after 30 minutes of rolling and an hour plus of Muay Thai. Normal rule set, single elimination and these guys went at it and gave it their all. We are missing some guys, but after m thai for an hour and to basically roll for over an hour in a tournament format, it was a sight to see and FUN! Congrats to Alonso, Bryan, Michael and Matt for medaling LOL. As a coach it as a sight to see and it can turn a bad day into something great!
Using your GI to lace a seatbelt is a tricky way to set up numerous chokes if you can get it. Often times we are concerned about our GI being used to choke us that you can forget about your partner using their own. Here is a choke that is basically similar to a darce or Peruvian neck tie using the GI.
Tech sparring is a great way to build your striking skills. Control and safety keeps you on the mat, otherwise our time on the mat can get shortened substantially as well as those medical expenses or dental. Being smart, along with training hard, good recovery can keep you on the mats for many years to come. Wed night we did 9- straight technical rounds and had a great time.
