With school out and the gym closed it can be hard for your kids to get their energy out.

Staying active is very important to everyone’s mental and physical health. We want to help make this easier for you and your family.

Do the warm-up we do in Jiu-Jitsu class, your kid already knows them and can probably lead the whole family! Feel free to adjust them to work for your needs. You can take 5 minutes or half an hour.

Consider doing some of the drills outside, such as running, high knees and sideways sliding while traveling around the block. If you have a safe place, such as grass or a carpet, you can even add things like forward rolls and break falls.

Here are the standing ones
Run
High knees
Butt kickers
Slideways facing in
Slideways facing out
Red and blue jumping.
Run

Here are some grassy options:
Forward rolls
Backward rolls
Headfirst sh*****ng
Feet First sh*****ng
Sea Turtle
Break Falls “slap the mat”
Bear crawl

To all SBG NorCal community members
We have been working on a reasoned and rational response to the corona virus crises that is in keeping with this fast evolving situation. Our goal is to be responsible community members and to insure the health and safety of all members, coaches and staff.
Beginning on Saturday, 3/14-3/20/20 we will be closed and all classes will be cancelled for 1 week. During this time we will be conducting a deep cleaning of the gym to insure that we exceed our already high standard for cleanliness.
During this time we will be monitoring the situation and consider the different options available to us. One possibility is to continue to cancel classes for an additional 2 weeks AND open the gym for limited hours for members to come in and do their own individual fitness based workouts.
Additionally we will be planning, weather permitting, some group outdoor activities that can help us all keep in good shape physically and mentally.
While we are a small business, we are a very big community! All the coaches and staff truly appreciate the comaraderie and the precious time you share with all of us. We look forward to getting back on track just as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this new and thankfully unusual situation.
Warmly,
Lily and Alan
