News:
It’s been a while since we’ve had a full newsletter! We’re still around and
hanging in there keeping things steady and hopefully everyone is safe and
healthy.
Few things coming up and thank you yet again for everyone’s help and support
throughout the last year! You guys are incredible <3
Farewell Coach Miguel:
As many of you heard, Coach Miguel and Wolfs Boxing Academy will longer be a
part of the TBI team.
This may be temporary until the new year but Coach Miguel as a full plate on his
hands and with the struggles that the fitness industry is undergoing it’s been
difficult for Coach Miguel to be here and at the same time helping out his family
business.
‘Saying good-bye to a friend is never easy, and I know you are still around and
will hopefully be coming by whenever you have the time but will be sad to see
you go as a coach.
Thank you for everything you have done for TBI, for its community, and for
myself.
You are the true definition of loyalty and have been one of the truest people I
have met in this industry.
I have learned so much from you and appreciate your efforts in the last 4 years
that you have been apart of the team.
Please know that there was never a moment where I took you for granted.
We all wish you good luck, good fortunes and good health in your future
endeavors.
Thank you again, Coach Miguel.’
Taking Over for Coach Miguel:
With the absence of Coach Miguel, we will be adding a new addition to our
coaching team.
We are happy to announce that Nathan Delong will be joining the team as a
coach teaching an ‘All Levels’ Muay Thai class Thursday nights at 7 pm with an
additional, extended (and optional) half hour portion of drilling after the class.
Nate has been training at the gym for the last 2 years- and aside from being a
very friendly, kind and helpful TBI member, he is also a very talented and well
seasoned competitor who has trained and competed all around
the world.
Here is a snippet of some of Nates accomplishments:
Competed at the 2014 World Muay Thai Federation Championship on Team
USA and took Gold Metal for the Pro AM (Pro/Amateur) Heavy Weight
Division.
Titles: USTMO Super Cruiser Weight Chamption; World Muay Thai Federation 91kg Chamption
Member of the USA National Muay Thai Team.
We look forward to having Nate join the TBI coaching team. Thank you for your consideration Nate!
New Schedule:
To accommodate the growing membership, we are expanding our schedule.
New schedule will take effect Monday, November 2nd.
On top of the schedule change, we will be adjusting some of our pricing for new
members:
We no longer will be offering a ‘two week’ trial for ‘$99’ but rather we will be
offering your first class for free.
Also, we will be introducing an initiation fee of $99 which includes school
uniform (shorts, t-shirt, hand wraps) and registration.
Pub Crawl:
Join us for our 4th Annual ‘fighting’ theme-ed pub crawl will be held this year on
Saturday, October 31st
EDIT: 10/30/2020
Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that there will be a high likely hood of SMPD quelling Hallows’ Eve party go’ers.
So, we are moving the location to a few blocks up north to ‘Busby’s Wests’.
Reservation set for 12-15 peoples for the outdoor beer garden, with the possibility of the Anderson Silva/Uriah Hall fight being shown as well 🤞.
Meet at the gym at 6pm for ride share.
Everyone is welcomed, but since space is limited shoot me a DM if you plan on coming.
Whether you’ve been around the gym for 8 years or one month, or even your first week, everyone is invited :).
Remember, fight themed costumes- See ya then!
3110 Santa Monica Blvd
Santa Monica, CA 90404
We always wear something fighting themed such as anything related to martial
arts, boxing, video games, etc- As long as it’s fighting centric!
Main St. has several outdoor dining and drinking options to safely celebrate the
holiday.
Bring your funnest costume (and masks!) and join us!
That’s all for this month! See ya on the mats!
