Price Increase
- I have increased the weekly Direct Debit from $42.00 – $45.00 per week for Adult Martial Arts. This is the first price increase in about 5-years, and really needs to be increased again soon (maybe January) to keep up with inflation. At this point I have only increased the coast for new members, not existing members. $45.00 is still very competitive to other BJJ / MMA gyms in Brisbane, and cheap compared to the likes of F45 that charge $60.00+ per week.
Games for kids
I was asked about some ideas for kids games last week, there are so many and different versions of classic kids games that can be adapted and are only limited by your own brain. I want everyone to list two games and a brief description in the comments below. I have also included a link to some games below. Just remember to make sure the games are fun and safe.

Warm Up Drills Kids & Adults
Last week I asked for no more knee tag this year, so as a follow up from that below is a short video of some partner drills you can add to your warm ups. Something to think about is making your warm up’s suitable for what is being taught in that class. Like is there is a take down in the class tonight, then it would be a good idea to have some sort of break-falls in the warm up. You are not limited to what is in the video, but it is a good starting place or a reminder for you all. Like I said last week, about 5mins of line drills and about 5-mins of partner drill/s. Make sure you do the warm up with everyone, if you won’t do it why should they. Also make sure you do good clear demonstrations of what you want people to do and help people having trouble.
P.S. Please leave you name in the comments when you have read this post.
