Most people don’t realize how many hours it takes to earn a purple belt.

The mat time, the hard rounds, the days you didn’t feel like training but showed up anyway.
Johnson has been one of the toughest guys on our mats. High pace, high intensity, every single session all while working full time as an engineer.
His wrestling background has made everyone in this room better.
And when it’s time to give back, he’s there for our teen class. A role model they genuinely look up to. This belt represents hundreds of hours on the mat the consistency, resilience, and commitment to this art on and off the mat.

Proud of you, . Well earned!💜

LESS SCREEN TIME. MORE STRUCTURE.

Start the week with discipline.

Our Muay Thai Kickboxing kids work on their focus, confidence and respect.

Not chaos. Not fighting. But growth.

Free trial spots available this week in San Gabriel.

Ages ago, I started as a 16 year old learning Japanese Jiu Jitsu and Judo.

Like many, I began with Taekwondo but I wanted to understand what to do in case someone grabs, pushes you and/or holds you down.

Grappling was that missing piece.
Learning how to unbalance, control, and immobilize without unnecessary damage.

The dojo isn’t the same location anymore, but the foundation is the same.

Balance. Discipline. Respect.

Back in Eindhoven with the man who first introduced me to the Japanese “Gentle Art.”

Grateful 🙏

Yesterday I stepped in during a situation I never hoped to be part of but one I was thankfully prepared for.

A repeat shoplifter became aggressive toward store staff after being asked multiple times to leave. Police had already been called, but response took time. When the situation turned physical and a shop owner was put at risk, I intervened.

Using Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Self Defense Fundamentals , I was able to take him down, control him, and de-escalate the situation without causing harm. Once he calmed down and it was clear he was safe, I maintained control until Dutch law enforcement arrived and took over.

No punches.
No injuries.

Just control, composure, and responsibility.

Martial arts aren’t about aggression they’re about protecting people, managing chaos, and knowing when not to escalate. Yesterday was a reminder of why we train: not for medals or likes, but for moments where calm action matters.

Grateful no one was hurt. Respect to the shop staff who stayed strong under pressure.

Purple belt isn’t just about skill it’s about showing up.
Jimmy has been with us since 2017 our opening year.
He’s seen this academy grow from the early days.
He’s trained through injuries.
He’s balanced work, life, and being a great dad to Colin and Kyle.
What makes this even more special?
Colin and Kyle were the very first kids to join our kids program and they are both still training and Colin is even helping on the mats coach the next generation.
This belt represents years of consistency, resilience, and commitment on and off the mat.
Proud of you, Jimmy. Well earned 💜

Fun days at the academy!
