Black Belt Ceremony 2008 Video! 12/04/2008
Hi everyone. After selecting some of the BB Ceremony footage, we came up with this video that pretty much sums up the whole event, which was fantastic!
Enjoy the video and of course, we'll see you on the mats.
We have come to the end of another great year. It is amazing how fast time passes by! Like every year, the RABJJ Academy will be closed for a week so we can not only enjoy our Holiday season, but also get prepared for another fantastic year. Again, our motto is to constantly step it up a notch. The Academy will be CLOSED on the following days:
Wednesday - 12/24/08 Thursday - 12/25/08 Friday - 12/26/08 Saturday - 12/27/08 Sunday - 12/28/08 Monday - 12/29/08 Tuesday - 12/30/08 Wednesday - 12/31/08 Thursday - 01/01/2009
Happy Holidays!!!!

We Bet You Didn't Know... 12/04/2008
Recently promoted Prof. Johnny DiBianco is not only a Black Belt on the mats. He is also a big drums master! He impressed us all with this AMAZING drum solo found on you tube, so we hope you enjoy the video as much as we did.
What a cool thing for a Mixed Martial Arts fan when they have the chance to meet not one, but THREE MMA stars! Professors Ricardo Almeida and Dante Rivera together with UFC's Frank Edgar took some time to meet some of their fans and they had a blast!
Thank you to all who showed up, but most importantly to our own Max Bohanan who did some major advertising at Bordentown Regional High School! The coolest part was definitely to see a nice group of BRHS students get on the mats that same night for some last minute intro lessons. It looks like everyone had a great time and we look forward to the next one.
 Having fun.

If you missed this meet and greet, be sure to make it to the next one in January. Friends and family are most welcome. Call 609-888-2121 for more info.

Lucas Almeida Looking Good! 12/04/2008
If your wife or friends have the latest Nordstrom catalog (November), you can catch our boy, Lucas Almeida, doing his thing. Our little "mr. high-end-fashion" model scores bigger and bigger as time goes by. He also gets tougher and tougher on the mats, so it looks like he's getting the best of both worlds!
Lucas's little sister is also featured on the catalog.

 Congrats, Lucas.
