NEWS AND UPDATES FROM THE NORTH STAR ACADEMY OF MIXED MARTIAL ARTS
WEEK OF JUNE 10th, 2024
Happy Monday Team!
Today marks our inaugural set of morning classes at the academy! We are now running morning classes every Monday and Thursday with the following schedule:
- MONDAYS
- 9AM Striking 101
- 10AM Jiu Jitsu (all levels, nogi)
- THURSDAYS
- 9AM Striking 101
- 10AM Jiu Jitsu (all levels, gi)
Additionally, please note that the academy will be open for “Open Mat” training during our open hours in the AM (roughly 8:30am – 11:30am). You are welcome to come in and train, hang out, or whatever! The only restrictions would be around noise (not too loud during instructive periods) and safety (no sparring without proper equipment/permission etc etc etc).
Our morning classes will probably start with a little more of a relaxed vibe as we get an idea of the overall group level and structure our approach/classes appropriately.
Also, don’t forget that we have our Seminar 101 series workshop on the Kimura this Thursday @ 6pm! This workshop will be split into 2 parts (a fundamentals and an advanced group) and will be NoGi.
Beyond that, we are excited to have begun our youth Muay Thai program last week — our young Nak Muays are doing an amazing job so far working on stance, movement, and the basic strikes. I have been having a blast with this program so far and can’t wait to see how everyone progresses through the Summer.
Stay posted for some big Fight News coming soon, but until then, I’ll see you on the mats!
—Coach J
