| Walk in with The Grappler's Guild and walk out with medals. Students from MMA Institute represented The Grappler's Guild at the August 2nd Dominion Grappling Championships in Richmond, VA. As a result, The Grappler's Guild placed 3rd as a team in the tournament. Of the 29 MMA Institute students that competed, 23 placed in Gold, Silver, or Bronze in one or more divisions.
The Grappler's Guild produced winners at every level, from the beginner's division to the most advanced, whether with the Gi or without. This came as a result of having real dedication to the sport, reliable instruction, and helpful training partners. Every member of The Grappler's Guild contributed to the success of this tournament and all deserve congratulations.

There were many things happening at MMA Institute on Saturday, November 22nd. Third degree Gracie Barra black belt, Kazeka Muniz offered a seminar covering techniques in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, No-Gi grappling, and MMA takedowns. Fight Team Training brought MMA Institute fight teams in from Winchester, Harrisonburg, and Richmond and also welcomed teams cross training from other academies. But of all the learning, training, drilling, and sparring, the most note worthy event was certainly when Kazeka Muniz and Rick McCoy promoted Jake Young to be a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt. After training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for over 12 years, Jake certainly put the time in and dedication to achieve the skill level required to receive such an honor. Congratulations, Jake! All MMA Institute students are fortunate to have you as a team member and an instructor. |
