Women's Kickboxing Training Camp!

Day 2...Today we had 9 women from across the nation attend the Women's Training Camp at LDMA Sherwood. I got some good pics of our leg kick drills. In the AM the girls started on a lot of mit work and drills. In the evening there was more partner drills, flow drills and some sparring. They were then in for a treat which included a hike at pinnacle. This is going to be a fierce group of women!

Brandon's Fight in Fayetteville

Brandon from LDMA in Sherwood was supposed to fight in Fayetteville tonight. I know some of you were wondering how it went. His opponent showed up with an assumingly large cut on his head. The doctor would not let him fight, and the bout was cancelled.

Bummer...but there is always next time!
