I brought a murderer’s rows of skill and heart to the annual Royce Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Network gathering. Not a black belt would disagree, and the feedback I heard from Royler Gracie, Crosley Gracie, Steve Hall, and so many others, validated for me that Capital is doing right by Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. On a different personal note, I felt how much my team loves me, as much as I love them. Thinking back to a conversation I had with Steve Hall, knowing that your team is with you, regardless of any obstacle, brings a feeling a confidence that is hard to explain. I’m honored to have warriors like this by my side. (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoqT1kIBuRE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3liqt1czvpik

Today marks Hélio Gracie Day, a day which provides us with an opportunity to celebrate Hélio Gracie’s life, and to reflect on the style of Jiu-Jitsu he spent his life developing. A style which provides practitioners of diverse physical abilities with a system of proven techniques for self-defense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A9lio_Gracie (at Capital MMA & Elite Fitness) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoZIzkqByyQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19vbn05wapney

You know you are blessed when your students become fiercely loyal, and yet feel that they are able to express their concerns and opinions. Thank you Chad Malone for this generous honor. And I truly thank everyone who is in the same mold. https://www.instagram.com/p/BnaEy6aBP1n/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z03k4utgpo19

Capital has been on the map since 2001, and Rafferty Kelly has been a member of our team for more than a decade. Congratulations on his first Capital Picnic! And Abe, your culinary skills are beyond belief! Thank you for the hours of grilling everything from Brats to the most beautiful salmon filet I’ve ever seen! (at Lake Accotink)

We have scheduled our next exhibition/smoker for September 8th at our Alexandria location. We will have Muay Thai, Kickboxing and Boxing. This is also open to ALL LEVELS so if you have a high level amateur to someone that wants tot try it they are all welcome!

According to @fmp_consulting my coed #selfdefense seminar today was one of the most successful events they’ve ever held! (at FMP Consulting)

In this video two of Capital MMA's senior Brown Belt instructors, Chad Malone and John Perry, expertly conduct a demonstration of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu self-defense techniques at our 2018 Summer Belt Promotions Seminars & Ceremony. Learn how to defend yourself with these proven and time time honored techniques! Manage the space, control the clinch and dominate the fight using efficient Gracie Jiu-Jitsu techniques.

Another 1.5 hours of physical therapy and personal training. What did I win today? This guy is a lock for learning some Jiu-Jitsu tomorrow! We will call Aaron’s first class, ‘payback’. (at Fairfax County, Virginia)
