Grandmaster Larry Tatum Event
On March 27-28th, Sensei Rob St. Jean hosted a two day martial arts training camp in Blenheim, Ontario at his school, Dynasty Martial Arts. The event was simply awesome and I highly recommend his martial arts school to anyone in the Chatham-Kent area. I was honored to teach a sparring class to adolescents who were mostly junior brown and junior black belts, and I had the opportunity to fight every student by the end of the class. The highlight of the camp was training with Grandmaster Larry Tatum who taught a three-dimensional Short Form 3, showing how each of the techniques in the form could be applied against multiple attackers. If you missed Rob St. Jean's event this time, be sure to make it next time!

UFC 182 - Jon Jones vs. Daniel Cormier
Tomorrow night UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon "Bones" Jones will square off against a man that I have think has the best chance of dethroning Jones' title: Daniel Cormier. Daniel is 15-0 in mixed martial arts, and is 4-0 in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. From December 21st-30th, my family spent our Christmas holiday in Las Vegas. On December 30th around 5:30 pm, we decided to take one last walk though the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino before heading over to the airport. After sharing some good quality family time, I noticed an elevator had opened, and who do I see? Daniel Cormier. Daniel took the time to meet my family and take pictures. Hoping he wins the UFC title tomorrow evening.

If this blog motivates you to log your training time, get in better shape, and improve your skills, it will have done its job. Happy New Year everyone.
