halloween

Our CT Kids (of all ages!) dressed up and got into the Halloween spirit recently!  Our annual party for the children included games, candy, costumes, and of course loads of fun. Congratulations to Preslee, Lucas, and Teddy for winning our CT Kids Halloween Costume Awards!

That evening, our Adults came out to Rey’s Sports Bar and Restaurant for our Hollywood-themed Halloween party! We had so many awesome movies and famous characters represented – from the Terminator, to Beetlejuice, to Titanic, Magnum PI, and so many more.  We had such an amazing time together, sharing dinner, drinks, dancing and an unforgettable night as One Team & One Family!

             

Happy Halloween!  We’re starting the week with costumes and candy, but filling it with Guard Passes and ending it with the Jiu-Jitsu World League tournament. Our focus lately has been on controlling our opponent’s hips and restricting their mobility in order to pass guard, and we’ll be using those same principles to perform even more techniques to secure the position.

On Wednesday we’ll start from Half Guard, assuming that our initial attempt at the Over/Under Pass resulted in us only being to clear one leg. Our first attempt at passing from Half Guard will be with the Tripod Pass, which can result in several different outcomes depending on our opponent’s reaction.

More Passing in Advanced Class and even Pass PREVENTION in No-Gi next week, so get to the mat to close out October and start off November with a BANG!

This Halloween was simply incredible at CTA Irving!  In early October, our Adults began drawing names of classic WWF/WWE wrestlers, resulting in our own Royal Rumble on October 29th!  In attendance, we had such legends as Stone Cold Steve Austin, Ric Flair, Andre the Giant, The Ultimate Warrior and so many more.  At the end of the night, Mr Eugenio Salinas was crowned the Heavyweight World Champion of our Costume Contest with his portrayal of Sting.

The CT Kids certainly weren’t left out, as we held a special party for them the next Saturday morning.  With costumes, pizza, games, techniques and candy, we filled an hour full of fun.  Thanks to all of our coaches and parents for helping make our celebration so memorable!
