BJJ fundamentals with Coach Evandro.
Bait your partner into stepping forward. Drop to one knee and scoop the ankle.
From there, don’t rush the finish. Stand up, establish your base, and consider your takedown options. Trips. Bumps. Dumps.
Good grappling isn’t about forcing a technique. It’s about creating reactions and choosing the right answer.
BJJ FundamentalsWednesdays at 6pm. Open Mat GrapplingSaturdays at 8am.
Both sessions at no additional cost - it’s included in your Forge membership.

Advanced techniques get attention. Fundamentals win fights.
Our P3-P5 Krav Maga classes focus on the skills you’ll use over and over again: punches, kicks, parries, simultaneous counters, and the ability to move smoothly between defense and offense.
Real performance doesn’t come from knowing more techniques. It comes from executing the basics under pressure.

New class. New time. Same Dutch kickboxing.
Starting now, Forge is adding a third Dutch Kickboxing class:
Fridays at 12pmTaught by Coach Xavier
Expect sharp combinations, footwork, defense, conditioning, and plenty of rounds on the pads and bags.
Whether you’re training for self-defense, improving your striking, or just looking for a hard midday workout, this class is included with your Forge membership.
Fridays. Noon. See you on the mats.

One of the things you’ll notice at Forge is that our instructors are students too.
Our coaches regularly train alongside our members in Krav Maga, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Dutch kickboxing, boxing, and Kali. Not because we have to. Because we believe continued learning makes us better coaches.
Some of the most valuable lessons come from teaching fundamentals, answering questions, and helping different people solve the same problem in different ways. Teaching and learning aren’t separate activities. Done well, they reinforce one another.
Better coaches stay students.

We’re expanding the Dutch Kickboxing program at Forge.
Starting Friday, June 5th, Coach Xavier will be adding a new Friday 12pm class to the schedule.
This class will include the core Dutch kickboxing curriculum along with kick shield drills, heavy bag work, conditioning, stamina training, and focus mitt rounds.
If you’ve been looking for more striking training, more rounds, and more time sharpening your skills, this is it.

Strong base. Both hands to the mat. Walk the leg around the head. Secure the underhook. Sit, hip switch, and settle into side control.
Simple, technical, effective.
