No fear, relentless pressure, enchanting positive attitude! These are the attributes of the Crocodile. We say you have to be 5 to be in the kids class, but with his demeanor, there are exceptions to the rule. Thank you for bringing so much life and laughter to our class. Chomp!

Belt promotions!
Two of our most dedicated members received belts today!
Sarah has been training hard consistently and has earned her blue belt!
Arbie has been a member with us for many years and is one of the most helpful, hardworking and genuine members in our gym. Today, Arbie earned his purple belt!
Many of us have waited a while to see these two get they're well-deserved reward! Congratulations to you both! The road is long, but every step forward is as important as the first.

As of right now we do NOT plan on closing our school. We ask that our students use all the recommended precautions; clean uniform, cut and filed nails, washing hands, keeping yourself clean as well as staying home if you are or have come in contact with someone that is sick. Thank you.

A big shout-out to Nikos from Saskatchewan! He traveled down to Texas this last week to compete at the Houston Winter International Open.
Training out of InFight (QCMA) in Regina, Nikos represented the prairies well and brought home gold!
Congratulations Nikos! Thank you for working hard and showing our southern relatives how we do things up north!

Jiujitsu may be primarily about fighting but its benefits extend far beyond just combat capabilities. This week while in NYC met these wildcats from across the pond. Great people, great jiujitsu, and friendships made. Our little community from Regina, SK is growing with these friendships!!
Also, that is indeed in this photo. Jiujitsu can quite literally turn your idols into friends in no time flat. Try having a conversation with a pro basketball player or hockey player and it feels like you're from mars. On the mat... Everyone is accessible and friendly!! Thank you for the rolls and the memories everyone!!
Reposted from Me and my English brothers at last night! We bonded over our mutual monarch and love of post training drinks. Can't wait to visit the old country now for some rolls 😁

The future of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu always looks a little brighter when we get a glimpse of what's to come through our younger generations.
This is Isla Sobejana Diesmos, the 12 year old girl who is making noise all across Canada! Isla has won over 25 medals since 2015! Training out of one of the oldest BJJ clubs in Calgary, she won 17 gold medals and 8 silver medals in her first three years of competing!
When he heard her fellow students at school were being rude and pushing her around, Isla's father put her into Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Fight Club out of Calgary, Alberta in order to build confidence and self-esteem. Now, Isla is a force to be reckoned with!
Keep pushing, Isla! You are an inspiration. Thank you
For building such strong and empowered warriors!

The turnout this year was record breaking and the skill level was phenomenal. A huge shout out to all the competitors who attended and all coaches who made that possible!
