Austin Seminar & Belt Promotion

October 26, 2014 By Insight BJJ Leave a Comment

On Saturday, November 8th, my professor (4th degree black belt, Mario Esfiha) will be celebrating his 4th anniversary with a seminar given by his professor, 6th degree black belt Robert Traven. Following this seminar will be an open mat, then a belt promotion ceremony for some of Mario’s students.

Don’t miss the opportunity to celebrate with our Team! 
Even if you can’t make it to the seminar, you should come and be a part of the belt promotion ceremony FOR SURE!

The day’s schedule will look like this:

  • 11am – 1pm Seminar with Professor Roberto Traven
    (Cost $70) 
  • 1pm – 2pm Open mat & rolling
    (For seminar participants only) 
  • 2pm – 3pm Belt Promotion Ceremony!
    (Family and Friends are welcome) 

Due to these events, we will not have kids class or open mat at Insight BJJ that day.

Upcoming Tournaments

October 19, 2014 By Insight BJJ Leave a Comment

So our school is growing and we’ve had months of good, solid attendance. Some of you are nearing readiness for competition and may be wondering how to go about getting your feet wet. Unfortunately, there are some not-so-legit entitiies out there hosting tournaments that are NOT worth the time and money. I thought a little help and direction would be appreciated, so…

In December there are two tournaments that I believe are worth the effort and both could be great for first timers AND seasoned competitors.

The first tourny is in Leander on Dec 6th. Click the image below for details:

The second tournament is in Dallas on Dec 13-14. Click the image below for more details.

If you have any questions, talk to me before or after class, or give me a call. 512-718-2539

I was traveling from out of town this week and called Insight to see if I could get some mat time in between Brenham/La... Grange before a tournament in a few months. Coach Peterson was incredibly accommodating. First impression was what a welcoming and friendly place to train, not to mention spotlessly clean. Open mat had great turnout and I got some really good coaching advice during the classes. Coach Peterson is calm, relaxed, positive, technical. He explains things clearly and takes time with the students to work through combinations. The people at the gym I had the opportunity to roll with were all relaxed, good natured, and tough competitors. Enjoyed the focused, positive training community. What a great grappling/jiujitsu resource if you’re in or around Brenham/La Grange. Appreciate you for making the time this week, Coach. Can’t thank you enough.read more

Becoming a member of this gym has definitely been one of the best things my husband and I have done. Class size is... often very small, nice and personable. The instructors are all amazing, helping you perfect technique and helping guide you into new techniques as well. I love the comradery, everyone willing to help each other become better at the sport. Lots of fun and a great workout!read more
