for every body & fitness level!
OT Fitness Boot Camp (TUESDAY & THURSDAY 6:30am) is not your average fitness class. It will be taught by former Marines, and will challenge everyone from the most fit individuals to people just getting into fitness. We won’t be using your average fitness equipment, so get ready to have a good time lifting ammo cans, flipping tires and using your own body weight to transform your body! OT Fitness Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (MONDAY 4pm & 7:30pm, WEDNESDAY 5pm & 7:30pm & FRIDAY 5pm) is a unique training approach to the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighting system. Our BJJ training program is designed to promote the development of mind and body. The training will forge in you a solid base of power and control as you learn a multitude of submissions, escapes and counters. The largest way in which our BJJ training differs from the classic system, is by whole heartily embracing the philosophy that there is more than one way to solve any given problem. Improvisation and adaptation play key roles in our training methods. The students play a much larger part in the learning process as they are encouraged to experiment and develop their own personal style.
