Hello everyone, after a conversation with some of y’all during our meeting today, we have made the very difficult decision to postpone our upcoming camping trip as well as temporarily cancel all classes. We agree it is best we do our part in containing the possible spread of the virus as much as possible, especially given that bjj is such a close contact sport. We will reassess in two weeks and give an update then. In the meantime we are working on planning some IG live streams in lieu of classes. We hope you understand and are taking precautions to maintain the health of your family. Please reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you all, this will pass and we will all be together again soon. With much love, your warrior coaches.

Congratulations to Alan on earning his gi last night! Alan’s level of dedication and commitment to his growth is inspiring. He commutes from Watts on public transportation to train with us on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. We are proud to have him as part of the Warrior family and look forward to his continued improvement. Congrats Alan!
