After the seminar yesterday I met with Roberto and a some other school owners. The topic of the meeting was the association. The priority for everyone at the meeting was bringing back the inter-school tournaments. The first tournament will be at Gracie Barra Boston on April 30th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

I am having surgery tomorrow and will not be able to make it in to teach. Dennis will be coming in to teach the adult classes but I need someone here for the kids 5-6pm no-gi kids class. They learn anything in this class from boxing/kickboxing to wrestling and BJJ. At worst, I need someone to set up a rollin...

training BJJ! I stole the following story from James Suchy who stole it from Jason Hammel. It is provocative but definitely has a point. "I went to this black belt years ago and told him that I wanted to be a black belt world champion. Was it possible, I asked? He said "yes it is possible just not possible...

Phil and I were very excited for John Ortolani to receive his purple belt. Hard work, dedication and the lifestyle to train 7 days a week doesn't hurt either. Congratulations!

I am attending Roberto's seminar at North Shore BJJ in Salem, MA tomorrow. Dennis is covering class. I think Pete is going with me. If anyone else wants to go, I will probably be leaving around 9:30. It is an open guard seminar from 11-1 and is only $30. Let me know!

Today I was rolling with big John in the am class and was fortunate enough to have this plata served up for the second and third time in two weeks. Nasty!!!! Of course I was on the receiving end of this. Everyone should feel this.

I have been approached by numerous students who are upset that Dan may be going back to football. They all ask "what does football have the BJJ doesn't?" You Can Help! After drilling technique or rolling with Dan, be sure to give him a firm "good game", aka a slap on the butt! We can all Help!

I want to start of by saying that I am very pleased with the way the academy is running. I would however like to get a little more structured with our mat etiquette. I was quite humbled by receiving my black belt. My head did not get big but rather the opposite. I feel a lot more pressure now but I'm up for t...

Roberto will be at North Shore BJJ for an open-guard seminar on March 26th 11am-1pm. North Shore is run by Danny Morera, one of Roberto's black belts. I never push but I do want to encourage people to attend these seminars.

I want to start up the in-house tournaments again. I'm thinking once a month on Saturdays. Kids will start at 9am and adults at 10am. Lets start with April 2nd!

Lets get some sparing sessions scheduled. We have 7 guys fighting in April so I want to get this camp started this week. Lets talk about days and times. Any suggestions? Mon and Wed during boxing makes sense. Mo pads guys but there is no reason fighters cannot get in sparing in between being padded. F...

For March 1000 reps of: Arm Bars Triangles Kimuras I train 7 days a week so that means 33 reps of each per day! If you train 3 days a week, that will still result in 100 reps of each per week and 400 reps per month. I stole this from Al Bibeau in Boston. Grab a training partner before and after class to get your r...
