December Newsletter

HOLA,

Last month!  What a beautiful year it was.  Thank you all for making TBI the great community that it is.

To a beautiful New Years.  Cheers!

Fight Weekend:

Busy weekend for the team. 

Saturday we had two athletes competing at the Ontario PKB. Thank you to Coach Nate for taking the team out there to compete.

Thank you to Desi for helping out the team as well.

And then Josh on Sunday at Royal Combat with a hard fought split decision loss.

As for Coach Jeannie, she was set to compete in AZ on Sunday but here opponent No Showed.

Very unfortunate and my heart hurt for her disappointment.

As always, thank you to all the Coaches in all their efforts in cornering all weekend.

For giving up your free time to help the team.

Shout out to Coach Tony for his immense help in training Josh and all your willingness to learn and excel at coaching.

Please know that all your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed and we appreciate everything you do for us.

Thank you to all TBI members for your all positive energy, encouragement and attendance in support.

And thank you to our sponsors for helping us in our journey.

Buy merch!

Help represent the gym-  Not only are our designs super cool and stylish and comfortable, but this helps bring awareness to our cool little community! 

We have T shirts, we have pull overs, we have zip ups and even kids sizes. 

Refer a friend or sign up a family member!
