Congratulations

Congratulations to all the Gracie Tampa students that got a new belt or some new stripes. Special congratulations to Dan Martinez for earning his Purple belt.

I hope to see everyone back on the mat next week training hard. Hard work = success.

New Shirts!

Great news! I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico! In other news, I have ordered new school shirts. They should be here in 2 weeks. They are a nice new design, and I am sure you will love them.

Striking Coach Martin “Trey” Brown

Martin “Trey” Brown is Gracie Tampa West’s new striking coach. He has been training boxing / kickboxing for over 7 years, and is an extremely good teacher. His classes run Monday – Thursday both in the mornings at 10am, and in the evenings at 8PM. I encourage everyone to come in and try his class. Beginners are welcome, the classes focus on basic footwork and movements first, be prepared for a nice work out.
