The second Jr MMA Sleepover is in the books. The sleepover builds camaraderie, and just getting together and having some fun is great for the team. The last one was 2 years ago, with all the growth we didn’t get to do it last year but the goal is to do it twice a year from now on. Jason is planning on January and August.
It started off on a serious note. An hour was spent on situational self defense and how to tie their MMA
skills into it. Everyone got in a good sweat, but the it was time for some fun: fitness challenges, playing with the PS4 and the cookout.
The fitness challenge winners took home signature shirts from some of our GR Pros. Michael Frenk (redhead on left) - pushup challenge winner with 70 went home with a classic Intimidation Jason Dent shirt, Colin Rupar (in middle) won the wall sit to collect the new Bonesaw Comer shirt, and Logan Baker won the rope climb challenge with 15 reps on a 20’ rope climb and took home the Intimidation Donny Walker shirt. These kids are fit! I wonder if our signature MMA Pros could touch those numbers.
Kevin Jackson and
Action Automotive sponsored the sleepover once again. And once again, Kevin not only supplied the food but he cooked it too. GR is lucky to have people like Kevin around.
GR also needs to thank Alex Frenk, Mike Baker, and Jacob Siever for stepping up and chaperoning. These events can’t happen without good people like these going the extra mile.
With the success of the Jr MMA sleepovers, Jason is seriously considering a kids version for the 5 to 9 set. Feedback, ideas and suggestions on how to make this happen is welcome and needed.
