Dear EDH Martial Artists! 

Lots of exciting things happening this weekend with the D1 NCAA Wrestling Finals and IBJJF Pan Jiu Jitsu Championships! From EDH, Marshall and Garrett participated in the tournament. Marshall was called for a confusing and somewhat controversial call that ended with him being disqualified. Garrett made a strong showing to finish with a bronze. Congratulations to the entire team for helping these guys get prepared for the biggest tournament in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! Tournaments are a reminder that individual success is the reflection of hard work, focus, and discipline from the individual but also a result of the support of each and every person elevating the intensity and a willingness to serve for the betterment of the team! CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE!

1) Tournaments
2) Saturday Open Mat

Good Morning Grapplers! 

We have an amazing event tonight with Professor Chad Robichaux on the mat! He will be going over some really neat tricks for our students to learn and sharing with us his story as a wounded veteran. We are asking for a recommended donation of $35 to help is Mighty Oaks Warrior Training Foundation help rehabilitate those with both physical and mental combat trauma. I highly recommend bringing a friend or family to this event. It will be an event to remember! I've attached a link to a quick interview we did together last night. Chad will also have his recently published best seller "Redeployed" available for $20.
