Altitude's Pride, The Little Monsters!


Thankful to report continued growth of the kids MMA program! The kids are developing and in the spirit of the program are definitely morphing into MONSTERS!!!  In the recent months we've restructured the format to include dedicated days for Wrestling, Kickboxing, Jiu Jitsu and MMA (mixed martial arts). We also further organized how the classes are instructed having specific instructors in charge of the specific disciplines.

The new structure has definitely brought about a whole new level of quality and in turn excitement. The classes are running more efficiently with a defined curriculum and as a result the children's skills are advancing at a far more rapid pace. The harmony of one discipline flowing into the next, day after day is leading to better information retention and less instruction needing to be reiterated.  An equilibrium of sorts is being established where the skill set of the children individually is very similar to that of the rest of the team and through that balance the team is able to develop quicker.  Their understanding of the techniques is growing firm and their martial arts foundation strong.

Altitudes pride!

It's so awesome to see a program go from an idea to what has evolved into a strong team of capable students. To see them develop as martial artists has been amazing. To get the feedback regarding improved grades, social interactions, newly established goals, sleep patterns and overall health is beyond what we once expected from the campaign but will fuel us to continue to proudly develop the program.

Our instructors who are all competitive athletes are fully committed to the constant improvement of the team and are now organizing various events such as wrestling tournaments, amateur boxing competitions and even clinics offering the team expanded resources encouraging continued growth.

The leadership team is more motivated than ever and entirely looking forward to the future of the Little Monsters Kids Class with an increasing dedication and optimism. The catalyst to everything was our supportive parents and their positive children. These elements have come together in a high energy environment to create what we believe is an incredible option for children seeking martial arts training.  Training that develops them as athletes but also as positive productive humans.

To all involved, a sincere thank you on behalf of Altitude MMA for the role you've played. We are undoubtedly building something awesome and we're certain the future holds continued success of both the program and most importantly the children.

Remembered the password baby! We're back!!!!!

YO YO!!! Heck to the yeah!!! We're back on blogspot!  Man o'live where to begin? Altitude MMA has been cruising along at a crazy pace. Huge fights, personale upgrades, growing team... The whole nine.. we've been cruisin.

The craziest things that have happened as of late include some insane coaching additions. 5 weeks ago Professor Marcelo Motta blessed Altitude MMA with his contributions on the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu side and Muay Thai Khru Pat Cross has added an unreal flavor to our striking. 

Marcelo is an absolute monster having nothing but the highest levels of success in his wake. He represented the Brazilian Nation Jiu Jitsu team before being recruited by the United Arab Emerites where he and partner Carlos Santos grew jiu jitsu into the National Sport.  Marcelo's wisdom and and understanding of jiu jitsu is truly unique but his spirit and approach to teaching is what gives those under his guidance the most significant advantage. An absolute jiu jitsu genius but more than that he's an incredible person that positively impacts everyone so fortunate to connect with him.

Pat is a striking coach like nothing I've ever seen. His understanding of the discipline and ability to articulate it to those under his influence is difficult to describe. His commitment to the sport, high energy approach and thorough teaching methodology is why he is frequently named as one of the premier striking coaches in this region. 

Man I don't even know what to say other than I couldn't be more motivated! Credentials, facility and what not is one thing... but when you're surrounded with great people a whole new realm of possibilities opens up and I am straight electrified with excitement as we enter it!  Stay tuned!
