Teenager vs Teenager

admin — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 04:23:12 +0000

Another MMA star is accused of beating his wife, and teen vs teen videos are popping up because of the popularity of MMA.

Help your child to learn martial arts that has respect and will help him with his future. As far as I am concerned, MMA is out of control and more bad news is coming.

Learning The Chess Game

Remember the movie “Searching for Bobby Fischer”? Well, the main, and real character of the movie is Josh Waitzkin who is a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. BJJ is a chess game, and a healthy one at that. Getting a workout, learning a little self defense, and working your mind is a great combination.

With a 30-day Free Trial, you will get to experience an art that will transform your life and stimulate your mind at the same time. If you 8-National Chess champion endorses the sport, it is really hard to argue…

Here is a quick video of Josh:

USA Judo

OC Jiu Jitsu will be joining USA Judo as an affiliate school. Our instructor, Marcel Louzado , is a black belt in Judo ( and 5 time World Champion in BJJ and Submission Wrestling) and regularly teaches the students throws.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is really Newaza (ground fighting) in Judo. When Count Koma taught the Brazilians Judo in the Amazon, the Gracies took the ground part and marketed it as their own within Brazil.

Here are some old videos of Japanese Judo practitioners showing ground fighting techniques. As you can see, most of these videos were made before the Brazilians were first introduced to Judo:

Making Predictions

My previous post commented on how MMA fighters end up being trouble makers. Coincidentally, a former UFC fighter was recently arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. Not too long ago, another Lake Forest MMA fighter was arrested for weapon charges.

The Danger Of Learning How To Fight

Seems harmless at first…and pretty cool…learning the same techniques of the fighters you see on TV. But, what it doesn’t tell you is what happens over time, if you are called a “punk” or “loser” by someone and you fly off the handle. I remember one of our “former” instructors was challenged to a fight, and after repeated taunts, even he stepped up to the plate and was willing to fight.

The lesson in getting into a fight is called legal and civil. In short, you will be broke for the rest of your life, paying for that 10 seconds of domination, and be in jail or doing community service. In a high income demographic community, like OC, where bored kids have nothing else to do but to learn how to fight – trouble is only a short step away.

Learning the martial arts is not about beating your opponent but improving yourself. That is why we got rid of MMA and concentrated on the art of grappling – MMA instructors and fighters are a dime a dozen. Good martial arts instructors are rare.

Take a class from a World Class Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competitor like Marcel Louzado and see how you can just have fun. And you won’t have to think of kicking someone’s butt for calling you an ass.

Grappling A Great Way To Lose Weight

admin — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 02:18:50 +0000

One of the fastest ways to lose weight, is to put on a GI (uniform) and workout for about an hour. Using every muscle, in your body, causes you to burn calories like there is no tomorrow. You really don’t notice the workout, because you are so involved in learning the techniques, and trying to perfect them.

With time you realize that you have lost a lot of weight, feel stronger, and have a good knowledge of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Our instructors are current world champions in GI and No-GI. All have years of experience of teachings, and will make your participation as fun as possible.

Give Tyler or Jason a call and try our 30-day free trial.
