we have all hear the saying safety first?? well this young fellow has take the need for equipment checks to the next level

who in good concience could show up to the academy with these gloves in tow ready to spar or work partner drills with any impact?????  now this is all fun and game as i caught the perpetrator before he hurt himself or anyone else but on a serious note …..all members in striking classes need to have proper safety gear to participate

Youth program update

with my abscence the months of november for the ufc 140 training camp the rest of elite training cennew elite mats clean like the old elite matstre’s  staff have been working away at getting the additional training space open in the academy and we are happy to say things are finally operational, while not completely finished the mats have been laid and training space cleaned and preped for use by the fastest growing kids/childrens mixed martial arts class in the Mississauga area.

Now if you like me you probably are thinking KIDS MMA???? Well dont let the terms “Mixed martial arts“ throw you off :) ours is not  a class filled with Mini cage fighters, instead our youth program focusses on the constructively positive  skills, habits and life lessons gained through the practice of martial arts.

3- we are still playing with the schedule a bit to see what works best for everyone but one thing is for sure. The new  MMA conditioning circuit classes  are a big hit.. using many tools and training methods you wont find in any local heath club or personal training session, everyone as been getting great results in the two weeks since we started.  It appears we will be changing the class times to Tuesday at 7pm and Saturday’s at 11am.

making room for our new grappling program Monday and Wednesday at 6-7 pm…

look on these guys faces says it all… elite conditioning is no joke:)

hi everyone,

As previously stated.. I am now back on the scene and putting as much dedication into making your training experience at Elite even better than ever.

New conditioning classes,

We will be adding new conditioning circuit classes to the schedule in the next 2 weeks. Much shorter and more intense than a 1 hour session these 20 min burnout session (Yes that right only 20 minutes!!!) will be making use of a many of the tools fighters and performance athletes use that the standard fitness gyms and personal trainers are not quite hip to yet.

members interested will need to register with Kelly at the front desk for the orientation session..  its important we use the tools properly to get the best results.

Muay thai level 1 test

With a solid few months of training under many of our new members belts Kru DJ  in in the process of ironing out the date of the next level 1 muay thai test but it will be close in date to the upcoming grappling test.

phase 1 grappling test

Its been some time since the last phase 1 grappling test and  with the level of technique i have seen in class this week its  another grading is clearly overdue.   As of  may 16th the level 1 technique sylabus will be posted in the academy for everyone in the grappling program to review in addition to thier printed / emailed copy of it. If you are a member and do not have a copy of it please email me at claudepatrick@gmail.com  for your copy.
