  • Kickboxing in Big Bear!

  • Winter Survival Education Retreat

    Elite Training Center’s Winter Survival Education Retreat was an enormous success. It’s taken a few days for the magnitude of the knowledge and experience to sink in, and I’m finally ready to share my thoughts. To begin, getting a taste of what it’s like to fight in the snow with winter gear on was an…

  • Combative Shadow Boxing

    In tonights class we explored the full potential of shadow boxing combatively. Repetition always creates success. Shadowing a technique over and over will instill it in your body over time.

  • Building blocks

    When we learn to read, we don’t immediately jump into books with long, complex sentences. First we learn our letters, the formation of each and the sounds they make.

  • Questions?

    If you find yourself struggling to understand information that you receive, just ask! Far too often students on the martial path fear the judgment of their fellow martial artists if they ask questions. “I don’t wanna hold up the class” or “I’ll just ask later” then forget. Firstly, ego must leave the equation. Never feel…

  • Building Systems

    Elite Training Center hosts 5 schools under 1 roof. This is done as each system is complimentary to the next.

The ground work takes pieces and elements of both Brazilian Jiu Jitsu…

  • Fun Work Pays Off

    Work and training are usually synonomous. The idea of something that can make you better both physically and mentally is too often discarded as inherently fun. Shouldn’t the outcome of beneficial results be deemed fun? Most of the Elite Training Center’s student body “work” hard. Does that mean that when learning people aren’t having fun?…
