We will be closed for the evening on 08/23/12. We are turning over the mat to The Spring Grove Wrestling Team for the evening. They are having a closed shop clinic. The Spring Grove Wrestling Team have been good partners in this venture so I hope the members of Spring Grove Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu have no problem with no class.
If you are bored with the same old workout? Tired of doing the same routine and not getting past your plateau? Then it is time to up the intensity in your workout and add variety. Our workouts are intense. The variety of skills and positions in Jiu-Jits is endless. It is time for you to give us a call.

We completed a back escape last night. With this escape the first wave of students can start to be given a position and transition into other positions to create drills that flow. This understanding by the first wave of students will speed up the learning process of the second wave of students.

The guards are started to open up last week at the academy. As the basics of straight armbar, omoplata and triangle are understood we ventured into opening up the guards and attacking our opponent. The first series that we explored was opening the guard into an overhook. The first three options given were choke to armbar to omoplata. What sounded complicated at first was clearly explained and everybody was able to execute the moves. Some people started to explore more options from the position. If you plan on stopping by this week get ready for takedowns. Cody is teaching and starting out with a double leg takedowns. Bring extra water it is going to be a workout.

This week the intensity of the sparring sessions began to increase at The Spring Grove Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy. As students increased the knowledge and talents so did the lenght of the sparring sessions. A couple of days were more technique oriented to let the new memebers get a grasp of the material covered. No matter what your current skill level we have something for you at this gym.

Rosendo Diaz will be at the Harrisburg BJJ and Judo Academy on 07/07/12. Rosendo Diaz teaches whatever the crowd wants to learn that day. Rosendo teaches the basics of Gracie Jiu Jitsu for the beginners and then builds upon the basics to get to the advanced techniques. All of his seminars are always fun filled with lots of laughs. This seminar is open to students of Spring Grove Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy. The members roster at Spring Grove BJJ is increasing steadily but there is still plenty of mat space for new students, if interested call today.
Hip escape was the theme of the week. We covered proper hand position when side mounted and fully mounted. Building upon last weeks class we used the Upa escape to set up the elbow escape. The warm up drills used this week blended in nicely with the material covered. Class size at the new facility is beginning to increase but there is plenty of room for new students. If you are new to this martial art you can call for an appointment or you are more than welcome to walk in unannounced. You will not be stranger for long.

We will be having class on Memorial Day from 8:00 am – 9:30 am. There will be no 6:00 pm class. This is being done so you can get your work out in without your jiu-jitsu addiction affecting your holiday. There will be no need to miss a parade or quit a game of horseshoes at the picinic to attend class. If you are wondering who needs to participate in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu listen to your co-workers Tuesday when they complain about being sore or injured from a game of badminton or softball. If playing a game with children at the Memorial Day Picinic leaves you out of breath give me a call. It is time that you hit the mats at Spring Grove Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and find out that we are far more than a martial art.
