THE JUNGLE GYM TRIBE LETTER – 10/2/17

STATE OF THE JUNGLE
Coming up in November, we have Edwin Solis, Daniel Rodriguez, and Victor Landeta fighting for 3 MMA titles at the Aggressive Combat Championships. Daniel Rodriguez is on the cusp of going pro so this fight will help sharpen his skills for the jump to pro.  Coming off of a win Edwin is looking to keep that momentum going. Victor is getting back in the cage after getting a taste for victory years ago in his first couple of fights. Tickets will be available soon.

KIDS PROGRAM
It’s all about repetitions!  I’ve been asked several times by parents about what can be done to help their child improve. To put it simply, they just have to keep showing up.  The more times a week your child is showing up to class, the faster progress you’re going to see.  For kids who are eligible, the Lions of Leadership Program is going to be another way to skyrocket your child’s progress. In this program kids will spend more time on the mat and begin to learn more advanced techniques with more individual attention. If you want to know more about our Lions of Leadership Program, see us at the front desk.

Lions of Leadership Open Mat is Every Sunday at HQ and this Month on October 14th at Jungle Gym New Rochelle. These are great training sessions so do your best to be there.

TEENS PROGRAM
So I’ve been asked recently about how one can speed up their progress. The simple answer is show up.  The more time you’re spending on the mat, the more progress you’re going to see.   It’s simply through doing more repetitions of the techniques that they start to become second nature. So make sure that you guys are showing up to class throughout the week where we go over and drill techniques and show up to the Open Mats, where you guys will get some live rolling. So to sum it all up in the simplest way possible, Just train!

FIGHTERELLA
“Who’s the Weak Link”

One of the ladies asked this question during a particularly tough workout. She had noticed that one of the other ladies had changed the weight she was using and had forgotten to put it back, prompting her to ask the question. Now in this women’s defense her recent exposure to our rough and tumble MMA classes had left her a little jaded in her language,all the same as the coach it was my duty to remind here of the very same truth I’m about to pass on to you all.

There are no weak links.Every lady within the program is working as hard as she can towards that healthier lifestyle and compare her progress to someone else or ridicule there hard work is wrong. So always remember:
“Compete only on yourself AND never feel sorry for yourself”.

JUNGLE JOURNAL – 9/4/17

STATE OF THE JUNGLE
With the summer coming to a close I expect to see a lot of those old faces that were slacking hard to up their attendance again.  Its all good, I expect it every summer. Understand that the Jungle Gym is open all year round.  The standouts that train here all have ONE thing in common. They train with the same CONSISTENCY all year round.  Some people are self motivated.  Some need some sort of pressure in the form of a competition to keep the fire lit.  There are others that just live this life day in and day out.  Being the most POWERFUL version of yourself is the ultimate goal.  Keep this in mind when you are designing your training schedule.

Quick reminder: We have a team open mat from 10am-12pm today.  Make it happen after you read this!

KIDS PROGRAM
We are just about two weeks away from our next Promotions ceremony!  Promotions will be held on Monday September 18th.  This time around we have two students eligible for their next rank. We have Serenity Reynolds looking to move up to gray belt and Anthony Santana looking to move up to yellow belt. We’re super proud of both students, who’ve both taken the steps necessary to be eligible for their next rank. Both have been turning in their Lifeskill homework every month a long with displaying proficiency with their techniques. They both even competed in our past in house tournament, The PressureQuest.  Students who aren’t getting promoted to their next rank, will be eligible for their mat skill stripes, which we give out every promotion.  Feel free to ask your coaches if you have any questions on promotions, see you guys on the mat!

Lions of Leadership Open Mat is Every Sunday at HQ and This Month on September16th at Jungle Gym New Rochelle. These are great training sessions so do your best to be there.

TEENS PROGRAM
Promotions are just about two weeks away!  We have several of our teens students eligible for their next rank. Throughout the week you can demonstrate your required techniques to the coaches. If they’re moves that you need some help with feel free to ask your coaches or teammates for help. You guys will have until September 15th to complete your list so make it happen! See you guys on the mat!

Ladies! Today I want to ask you a question. Its a simple one but the answer is your own. Why do you need a coach? Most would say to teach the workouts, others would say to keep count of the reps, end i even expect a few to even reply they don’t see the value in one. To me the value of a Coach is that external source of pressure.That person who’ll push us when things get to easy and encourage us when things get hard. To me the value of a Coach could not be undersold keep that in mind the next time your coach tries to pressure you..

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
Master Jules and Master Bill
I usually do not give a spot light to black belts because they do need the pat on the head.  I was motivated to do so, because I was running Summer camps this week and was able to see the morning sessions and catch Master Jules and Bill show up, when the younger bucks could not be bothered with getting better that morning.  They got some good training in that day.  This is a lifestyle for them.  Their competitive years are behind them, but they enjoy training because it keeps them sharp and it is a great lifestyle. We also discussed that it keeps us away from bad habits lol!
