This past weekend Ivey League’s own Coach Danny Ives conducted a kids training seminar at Crazy 88 Mixed Martial Arts.
The seminar was focused on not only martial arts but also developing overall athleticism in the children.
Not only did a ton of kids from Crazy 88 attend but so did 7 of the kids from Ivey League MMA including: The Dvorak Twins, Mike “Mouth” Garlington, AJ Garay, Spike and the Avila’s.
Coach Danny started with his normal warm up routine followed by a series of gymnastics, crawls, stretching, sprinting and grip fighting drills. Needless to say the kids got a good workout in.
After a nice drink of water (or as Coach Danny calls it, “wooder”) the kids started on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques. Most of which were heavy on Turtle Guard and scrambling to escape bad situations.
Some of the techniques shown were:
Double Leg
Peak Out
Miller Roll
Kurtzrock
Judo Back Take
After all the techniques were covered Coach Danny had the kids do some live rolling and situation drills. These drills were meant more to help Coach Danny get a look at what the kids were doing right and wrong.
The good news is that the Crazy 88 kids were sharp and they didn’t need too much fixing up.
The day ended with some games and drills. The one most enjoyed was of course…DODGEBALL! The kids all time favorite game.
Thanks so much to Master Julius Park and the whole staff at Crazy 88 for having Coach Danny in. Great times were had by all.
