We will be having the official “Bring a Friend Night” starting this Thursday night. Every Thursday night will be “Bring a Friend Night”. If you’ve wanted to bring a friend, but just can’t seem to get them to come, this is a great opportunity to get them involved. This night will be a time when they can come to class with absolutely no comittment and they will be partnered with you so they are comfortable and you can help them. Once they see the combatives program and how easy it is to learn they will love it.
