ATX Tactics

Heads up! Next month we have a special Saturday with two separate seminars focused on Emergency Preparedness. At, 3pm, we’re holding a basic firearm safety course — this is specifically designed for people who are uneasy and want to build confidence in a safe, supportive environment. You’ll get a hands-on introduction to safety and mechanics, lead by co-owner Vanessa Swesnik. Cost is $30 for members, $50 for non-members — members please message us for a discount code!

At 430pm, the following seminar is FREE - we’ll be hosting another Stop the Bleed, taught by ATC EMS, about how to handle bleeding emergencies. We’ve held one of these before at the gym, and it’s absolutely essential information to have in the event of emergencies, we can’t recommend it enough. We hope to see you all on June 13!

Putting the fun in fundamental — sometimes the temptation as coaches is to try to give a lot of variety so that things feel more new and exciting, but in reality one of the best ways to learn is consistency, and finding ways to make repeating the basics over and over again a good time, even months later. Always remember that progress in these kinds of skills is measured over time. Each class and each rep is putting coins in the bank. Everyone’s work has really been showing lately!

We love Wednesdays. Come work through the midweek blues every week: Teens class @ 530, Jiu Jitsu @ 630, and Kickboxing @ 730! Big crews in the adult classes last night, you love to see it.

Woo! is back! Jiu Jitsu coach Ramiro has been competing and teaching internationally for the last month - he taught 13 seminars in 14 days! It’s great to share him, but we’re excited he’ll be here to coach Jiu Jitsu again, with a slight schedule change for Jiu Jitsu classes: he’ll now be coaching Wednesday night Jiu-Jitsu @ 630, with the Jiu Jitsu Basics class moving to Tuesday nights at 7.

Come catch Ramiro at these classes:
Jiu-Jitsu: Sundays @ 11am
Gi Jiu-Jitsu: Mondays @ Noon

Or, come take Jiu Jitsu Basics with Coach Eddy @ 7pm on Tuesdays.
Come welcome Ramiro back!

April is for the ABCs of self defense. This month, we’re focusing on what we consider our core sequence: protect your head, make an attachment, improve your position, get to safety. We’ll be working lots of helmets, in close grappling and striking, and navigating exits. Understanding these puzzle pieces and building skills around them can help you solve a surprising amount of problems and variables. We’ll see you in class!

It’s a holiday weekend, so we’ve got a modified schedule. Strength & Conditioning is still on tonight, plus we have a regular schedule on Saturday. The gym will be closed this Sunday, 4/5! 🐰
