FEB 16th Bone Island Fights

Dan Martinez and Kit Vongprachan and possibly a few others from Gracie Tampa will be fighting in Key West next month. This is a title fight for both Dan and Kit, both have very tough opponents and are training extremely hard.

Martin Trey Brown is representing Gracie Tampa West January 28th in Miami FL in Florida’s first San Do event, where he will be fighting 2 people at once. It should be entertaining to say the least.

Come in monday – thursday mornings and roll/spar with the guys to help get them ready for the up coming competitions!
