Shout Out 📣
// National Volunteer Week //
As we wrap up this week, we must give a shout out to Satori’s resident chief for all the incredible community work that she does. She’s raised countless $$$ over the years for various non-profits and charities, has been an advocate for so many, continues to bring forth many initiatives to serve and empower our community - bringing people together - and has given countless hours of her time, effort, and $ to those in need.

Don’t let her kind demeanour fool you though - she’s a force to be reckoned with on the mats, an incredible coach, and a martial arts boss. Not only a black belt coach in very male dominated sport - but all this as a mother of 2, somehow making time to train in 4 different martial arts, running a business, volunteering for her kid’s soccer team- and somehow still making time to volunteer! Not sure how you do it , but you’re a superwoman🦸🏻‍♀️.

Thank you for all your contributions.

Youth Class doing their pre-class stretch. During this time, a different youth is chosen to lead the stretch for their peers. Leadership starts at the very beginning of class - pushing kids past discomfort in this position, because this doesn’t come naturally to everyone. Through micro opportunities like this, we push our kids past their comfort zones to excel them as leaders- on and off the mats!

We love this classic photo of GM Carlos and Hélio Gracie! We might just need to get this one up in the studio- what do you think?

Happy Sunday!
Another incredible week of training🥋 Now for a day of rest and regroup before we head into another week. How do you spend your Sundays? Does it include gym time?
Share with us⬇️🙂

Saturday morning yoga vibes✌️Restorative flow with is such a wonderful way to start the day - and to decompress from a busy week! Happy Saturday, everyone!

One of the most valuable skills that you can gift your kids (and yourself for that matter) is the ability to learn how to fail. Our goal here is not to provide rose-coloured glasses to paint the image that winning is the prize and that life is all sunshine.

Yes, winning feels good- but, to be honest, celebrating a win is “easy”. We don’t need to teach anybody how to celebrate winning. The work that follows goal-setting might be HARD, but it’s straight-forward: show up, put in the work, do what you’ve trained for - do what you know.

What’s NOT easy is dealing with failure and the unknown.

What not easy is :
- choosing challenge independent of outcome,
- accepting the unknown when outcome could be failure,
- dealing with hard emotions,
- dealing with pressure,
- dealing with failure itself,
- showing up and pushing when things are hard, and
- choosing experiences that are unpredictable for the purpose of growth.

When life gets hard, we can’t quit. This one of the most important teachings in our classes. It is not JUST about learning how to breakfall or how to take someone down.

We emphasize the importance of showing up, being consistent, setting goals, striving high, choose challenges, being humble, accepting the lesson that comes with a loss, celebrating the success of others, doing hard things, asking for help - and always - appreciating and being intentional with our moments on the mats because EACH MOMENT IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH.

This is what we want for our students. Life skills.
