Lights, camera, ACTION!

A fellow fighter is getting a documentary made, with him as the subject.  He gave us some great work, especially in the ground and pound department (ouch!).  Fight night went late because of all the great work being done.  No one seemed to mind.

Thanks to Charlie (pro) and Taj (am) for their help.  Fight night is going loco, people, don't miss out!  Come to watch or come to participate. 

Sparring on Saturday with Fran during Fontan MMA for the more advanced people and beginner technique for the newer people. 

Remember, blood is just red sweat!

Make it out for FIGHT NIGHT people!!!  You could make it in the blog.

Kick, strike, throw, submit

Partner work yielded good results for today's noon class with InnerG.  Working on the standard San Da principle of flowing through striking into takedowns. 

John- "If you can't spar, flowing is your best practice for getting ready for a fight."

Gearing up for fight night tomorrow!

First Post- Standard Wednesday

Class tonight started at 7:30 PM at Elite Fitness on 33rd Street in the basement.  Fran had everyone working on knee transfers and different variations from this basic wrestling move.

Along with knee transfers (sweeps) we also touched on "running the pipe" where you trap your opponent's leg between your legs and either whip them to the group using your head as a pendulum or using a "desperation" take down and rushing at them with their leg still straightened out between your legs. 

Training at 12 tomorrow at Elite with John Salgado with some rock climbing planned for after class.

Friday brings us the much loved FIGHT NIGHT!!!  Bring your friends so they can see what this MMA thing is all about.  Starts at 8 PM at Elite Fitness.  Last week we had a good turn out and hopefully this week is even better.



Nothing in this world is handed to you, you have to work for it.  Put the work in so you can get your hands raised when the fight is over.
