We've had a lot going on at Precision since the last news update. First of all, congratulations to everyone who has been promoted. Most of you have been training hard and showing the dedication necessary to get to the next level...keep up the good work! Congratulations is also in order for Rob Geenidge, George Moriarity, Mark Stevens and Pat "Milkman" O'Connell. These guys put their skills on the line recently at the Grappler's Quest and NAGA. Rob brought home a bronze medal, George brought home 2 championship belts and Milkman was able to bring home a silver and bronze medal for his efforts this past weekend. Congrats guys! Hopefully we will have a nice group of people who will be attending the RGDA Association Tournament this weekend in NJ. It's an in-house tournament in which we were invited to by our friend Rosendo Diaz. It's a great way top show support to other teams in the area who share the same passion as us! So let's get a good turnout on Sunday and some much needed tournament experience. Anyone attending this weekend should meet at the gym on Sunday at 8:00am to carpool. Good luck!

Finally, it's that time of year again! The holidays snuck up on us and smacked us in the face (kinda the same way the Lawlor hit Kaplan on last night's Ultimate Fighter...haha). Our Annual Christmas Party will be held on December 18th at 6:00pm. As always there will be plenty of food and beverages. The 2nd Annual In-House Tournament will also be held that day. If enough people sign-up, we will have a heavyweight and a lightweight divison with the winner of each receiving a GI of their choice! Hope to see everyone there!

We would also like to wish Kenny "KenFlo" Florian the best of luck this weekend in his quest for the UFC lightweight belt. He will be facing off against a tough Joe Stevenson at UFC 91.

October 14, 2008

Thank you to those who came out for the seminar on Saturday. As always, it was a great day of training. Thanks to UFC fighter Kurt "Batman" Pellegrino and his sidekick K-Rod for coming down and dropping some knowledge on us...it's always a pleasure hosting the Point Pleasant crew. Be on the lookout for more seminars in the near future from our friend Jon Trenge and also from Bill Racich (that's right, Henry's uncle and the head wrestling coach at Ursinus College).

September 27, 2008

The new date for Kurt's seminar is Sunday, October 12th from 12-2pm. The cost is $40 and as always, refreshments will be provided (before the Eagles put the stamp on the 49ers)! Hope to see everyone there!

We will reschedule it for a more convenient time in the next few weeks...details for the new date and time, along with a sign-up sheet, will be available at the school. Sorry to those who were planning on coming today. (although the real reason is that Jerome "oplata" Clark could not be here, so blame him..haha)

September 9, 2008

Huge congratulations to Kurt "Batman" Pellegrino on winning UFC's fight of the night against a very tough Thiago Tavares! Kurt and I arrived home Sunday from a succesful trip to Atlanta, where he dominated a game Tavares and won a unamious decision! Huge acclaimations go out to fellow UFC fighter Kenny "KenFlo" Florian and boxing coaches Mickey Red and Nettles Nasser for their support and wisdom before and during the fight...it was a great behind the scenes team effort and obviously a great individual performance by Kurt.

Also, we're happy to report that Batman is back home permanently in Point Pleasant, NJ and training hard with his hometown boys and will be here at Precision JJ on Saturday, September 20, 2008 from 12-2pm for a BJJ/MMA seminar.

July 7, 2008

I know it's a little late...but a huge congrats to all the guys who competed in last weeks Grappler's Quest! Pat, George, Mikey, Jerome and Rob all suited up in the Gi to test out their skills. All the guys put on great performances with George getting the Gold on Saturday and Jerome getting the Gold on Sunday! Sunday also proved to be a great day for Rob G. who brought home the Silver while putting on great display of jiu-jitsu. He went 4-1 for the day, with 3 submissions and a narrow point loss to a div 1 wrestler. Great job guys!

Tonight's team practice/open mat is cancelled.

The Jon Trenge seminar last Saturday was a great success. Thanks to everyone who came out to learn from one of the best wrestlers in the country. We are looking to have him back again real soon, so be sure to check back for dates and times.

Also, big congrats to Jerome Clark for going out to the NJGC tournament this past weekend in Cherry Hill as the sole representative for Precision. Jerome took 3rd in no-gi competition, and then bounced back with the gi by submitting 3 guys on his way to taking 2nd place. Great job by Jerome, in what was his first tournament...look out heavyweights!

Precision came out on top again last Thursday evening when Jeff Morgan won his first "toughman rules" boxing match by referee stoppage in the 4th round of a scheduled 3-round fight. Jeff fought three hard 1-minute rounds and was called back for a 4th where he proceeded to land several unanswered shots to his opponent's head, which forced the ref to jump in and stop the fight. Congrats Jeff!

January 29, 2008

December 8, 2007

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip...

Guys...I am writing this today to let everyone know why Fabio Leopoldo had to bail on today’s seminar. There are always two sides to a story, so here is mine. The reason Precision JJ exists today is because of my passion for training, especially in a relaxed and comfortable environment. BJJ is a big business these days, and as a result schools have changed their structure and environment. Two years ago, the place where I used to hang my hat was one of those schools. After seeing some good friends come and go over the years, I chose to walk away from an environment which I thought wasn't conducive to how I spend my free time. With no ill will or hard feelings towards anyone, I left to open a school that would embrace a vibe and training atmosphere that suited my needs and the needs of those who share that same passion. Seems ok, right? Unfortunately, some of the people that I left behind feel the need to justify their lonely existence by policing who I interact with...and this time, it was Fabio and you guys who have been affected. For those who truly know me, you know that I am a good, hard working guy who is always willing to lend a hand and support my friends. It is truly unfortunate that people are so wrapped up with their own insecurities that they feel the need to try and bring us down. What are they afraid of? Who knows...maybe the truth?

My apologies to everyone who signed up for today's seminar. Today’s training is still a go...see everyone on the mats!

December 6, 2007

Don't forget to come out THIS SATURDAY December 8th for IFL Pitbull middleweight and Brazilian World Jiu-Jitsu Champion Fabio Leopoldo's seminar! It will be held at the academy from 12-2pm. All regularly scheduled classes will be cancelled for the day. Everyone should come out to support Fabio and learn some great techiques. We'll cover gi, no-gi and some MMA. Food and BEvERages will be provided after the seminar!

Also, we are pleased to announce the date of the first annual Precision JJ Christmas Party! It will be held on Thursday, December 20th. This party is open to all students as well as their family and friends. There will be open mat from 6-7pm and food and beverages will again be provided, so come on out and celebrate!

Holiday Schedule:
The academy will be closed for the holidays on the following dates:

November 21, 2007
Last night was a great night of training at Precision...thanks to my man Kurt "Batman" Pellegrino for coming out and dropping some knowledge. Kurt and I have been long time friends and training partners and it was amazing to have him back in the area teaching and training. Those of you who attended class got to see first hand how skilled Kurt is in striking, sport bjj, no-gi, wrestling, and mma...there wasn't anything that Kurt didn't have an answer for and it was great to be on the mat with him once again. Pics from last night should be up soon.

Just another reminder that there will be no class tonight or tomorrow...due to the holiday.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

We also would like to wish our great friend and UFC fighter Kurt Pellegrino the best of luck in his fight against Joe Stevenson on August 25. It was great to see him back at the Jersey Shore last weekend and in top shape for his upcoming fight. Good things are sure to come...
