May 15 and 16, Jory and Abby traveled to Snyder's LDMA in Highpoint, NC to train with Robson. Jory also gave a seminar on the X Guard. We had a great time training the day before the seminar also in a high ranks training session. We covered some great things that we brought back to the program here at Revolution. We also gave a contribution from the funds to the Nova Uniao community project. The Non-profit program is focused on teaching Jiu-Jitsu to underprivileged youths. By getting them off the streets and into an environment where they can learn discipline and build confidence for their future, the Nova Uniao community project is focused on helping those youths in need. Organized by Nova Uniao Co-Founder, Andre Pederneiras, the program is currently operated in two locations: “Morro Azul” with classes taught by Black Belt, Fabiano “Babu” Freitas, and “Morro Santo Amaro” with classes taught by Sengoku fighter and Black Belt, Marlon Sandro.
Finally, we introduced a new Nova Uniao patch for the tail of your gis. This patch will be available mid June. So far it's a huge hit!
