Happy Monday Team!
Summer’s unofficially over!
That means shorter days, cooler nights, and a return to routine. I, personally, welcome it!
This Summer was a wild one.. some major upheaval, which strayed us off our regularly beaten path a bit. I’m looking forward to putting some roots down in our new digs and seeing what we can do to continue to grow and improve the programs here for everyone!
Just a reminder, all classes are cancelled today! We resume our regular schedule tomorrow.
Tomorrow we debut our new “Intro to Jiu Jitsu Course!” This 4 week pilot course is designed to give you a firm start in the complex and amazing art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, without having you feel like you’ve just been thrown to the wolves. You are still able to regsiter (as a non member), but classes start tomorrow and build from “Day 1” so this is your last 24 hours!

All North Star Students are welcome to attend this program as well for no charge. However, a gi is required!
Our very first Women’s Open Mat is set for Sunday, 9/7! We recommend planning on showing up to start Muay Thai at 10am, and move into BJJ around 11am. You can show up whenever for whatever, though! Students and friends of the academy are welcome
Our youth Jiu Jitsu programs also return to the gi starting on Wednesday, 9/2! Please make sure to have your child’s uniform clean and ready for practice.
I’ll see you on the mats!
