Over the next several months the Kids Classes will be focusing on the different animals of Kenpo.  This month it’s the graceful Crane that represents increased balance and coordination gained through their Karate training.

Crane pictures have been given out to the kids to color.  There will be an Art Contest with a drawing for a free Junior Hanging Bag!  Every entry will receive one raffle ticket.

===Results===

The winner of the Junior Hanging Bag is… Liam Rogers! (on right side)  We had a runner up drawing,  just in case the Rogers  family couldn’t accept the bag, and the runner up was… Taylor Rogers!  (on left side)  Since both brothers’  names were drawn, we took it as  a sign that this family needs that bag.  Congratulations guys and thank you to all the kids who entered their art work; we have some awesome pictures.

Rex Payne is a former Pro Mixed Martial Arts fighter and has ranking in two different Ju-Jitsu camps.

Rex will be coming to AMA show some of his great ground game.  Starting on Tuesday March 22nd Rex will be a guest instructor during every other Tuesday night Advanced MMA Class.  Don’t miss an opportunity to train with a different flavor of talent.

*Scott Diamond’s MMA debut
*Matt Vigil has a 140 lb. professional bout

===RESULTS===

Scott Diamond vs. Jared Critser:  Scott dropped Jared with a hook in the first round but Jared recovered.  It was back and forth after that to make a great three round fight.  Jared won by judge’s decision but Scott has nothing to be sad about, nice job Scott!

Matt Vigil vs. Lee Bowman:  Lee came out swinging.  Matt shot, missed the take down and had a scary moment on the bottom of mount.  Matt reversed the mount, got Lee’s back and finished with a rear naked choke at 1:37 in the first round.  (:))
