Mondays!!!! 😮💨 Grab some caffeine and see you tonight 👊
I can’t believe it’s already been a week since our camp. Huge thanks to .va Aslin brewery in Herndon Va for sharing their space with us so we could run some training scenarios. We all enjoyed some food and beverages post training there 😋
Pushing through the week! Always obstacles in the way! Another drill, pushing through!
Forward rolls, probably one of the least favorite techniques. We took it outside and down a hill 😬 Everyone survived, just a few rocks and ticks to pick off 😅
