This week inside Dynamic MMA--April 8-12

Our Spring Break Camp was awesome! Over 20 kids attended and had a blast. We can't wait until the Summer Camp in June. 

We will be having a Dynamic MMA "Open House" on May 11th from noon until 4pm. We will have many fun activities for kids including a bouncy house. We are expecting a huge turnout for this event and need as many volunteers as possible to help out running the event. We will likely be serving food and drinks as well.  Please let us know asap if you wish to help out. 

A big congratulations goes to Kyleah Murphy for her Subleague tournament Silver medal. Kyleah was bumped up to a higher rank division and had to face a 275lb opponent. She went to a draw for two matches and got caught in an Americana bent arm lock in the third match. The referee thought it looked good and called the match. The opponent Kyleah lost to had recently won 1st place at the Pan American BJJ Championships. We are very proud of Kyleah for being so tough. Great job Kyleah!
