I Was invited to Renzo Gracieโs 30th Anniversary of his academy in the USA. They invited his first 50 students. There was a dinner and then we went to the academy for promotions. I received my 5th degree on my Black belt. Proud to say I have received every promotion from Renzo.
Thanks to Renzo for all he has given us. In the room there were owners of over 30 academies. That isnโt counting the multiple locations many have. He has effected thousand of lives thru his academies and thru ours. Very fortunate to be part of his rich tradition in the BJJ world.

Come and join us for ladies only classes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights at 6pm. Try a week of classes on us. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a great source of exercise and very effective form self defense.
The difference between good striking and great striking often comes down to the details. Small adjustments in footwork, balance, timing, defense, and technique can make a huge difference when itโs time to perform ๐
Thatโs why we put so much emphasis on drilling and refining the fundamentals. Repeating a technique the right way builds habits that hold up under pressure. Perfect practice makes perfect โ and every rep is an opportunity to sharpen your skills and improve your craft ๐ช๐ง
At Ground Control, weโre always chasing improvement, one detail at a time ๐ฅ

Memorial Day open matโฆgreat turn out. Come in and join the fun!
Kickboxing at Ground Control is all about timing, repetition, and sharpening real technique ๐
Combination drilling is one of the best ways to build rhythm, accuracy, defense, and fluid movement ๐จ๐ช Repping techniques back and forth helps students develop clean striking habits and sharper reactions over time. Itโs the kind of focused work that turns fundamentals into effective skills.
From beginners to experienced athletes, everyone develops through focused drilling, strong coaching, and putting the work in round after round ๐๐ฅ
