Last Saturday, we had our last class for the girls program of the summer. It was amazing to see how much the girls learned and had fun on the last few months. Most of them are training at the fundamentals and advanced programs and are now fully enjoying the lifestyle of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Good Job Girls! Let’s keep training hard!
Cheers!

It was the highlight of our Conditioning Class. It was noon already and most of us were tired from such challenging, fun and exciting morning. But the best was still to come. Right at the end of the event, Professor Flavio Almeida called two of his closest students to award them with their Purple Belts.
Val is a great asset to the school! A Black Belt in other martial arts, he brings a lot to the GB San Clemente Mats. Besides his size and unbelievable strength, the bear is always looking for ways to improve his techniques and whoever trains with him will be impressed by how gentle and fluid his Jiu-Jitsu can be.
“Coach” Felipe Guedes is the face of Gracie Barra San Clemente. A dentist who decided to go for an adventure and live in the United States, became the one of the main forces for excellence inside our school. His Jiu-Jitsu experience is long and wide and his ability to teach is second to none!
Congrats Guys! This is very welll deserved!
Last Saturday, many of our students were promoted and got one step closer to their black belts. Check below the pictures.

Last Saturday, the Gracie Barra San Clemente Team had one more day of fun! The turn out of our conditioning class was awesome and everyone said it was a day to be remembered.
The class started with a jog for the adults and a nature walk for the kids at one of the trails of the San Onofre State Beach Park. While our marines pushed the pace of our jog, the kids were having a great time discussing the environmental challenges of our community and learning about animals and plants.
After the outdoor activities we all came back to the school and most students engaged on a great class built by drills that are part of the training of the best fighters in the world. Meanwhile, the kids were thrilled by three unique visitors: a snake, a turtle, and a falcon!
At the end, came the most expected moment: the promotions! Many of our students got their 3rd stripe and will now start to train at the advanced classes, and our dear Neo got his blue belt. Last but not least, Big Val and a very emotional Felipe got their purple belts.
Congrats Guys!
Enjoy the pictures below. See all of the at http://www.graciebarrasanclemente.com/gallery2/main.php
