We want to give a very excited (and belated 😅) congrats to Glenn! After passing Gracie Combatives and then training in Master Cycle we are stoked to award Glenn his Blue Belt!
Glenn is taking some time off to focus on his family but we hope to see him again some day. You’ll always have a home at Gracie Monterey, Glenn! 💪🏻
Let’s keep it going!
Happy Sunday! ☀️
Today some of our Women Empowered students met up at the beach to participate in a Hi'ilani 'O Ke Kai Outrigger and Cultural Center rec paddle! 🌊
We had an amazing time learning about the club, their history and their amazing outrigger canoes! We loved participating in this amazing activity and getting to be out on the water of our gorgeous Monterey Bay ❤️
Thank you to everyone who showed up and a huge THANK YOU to Hi’ilani ‘O Ke Kai Outrigger and Cultural Center.
They have rec paddles on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of every month, go try it out!
