    General

    We’ve got an action packed 6 weeks coming up for our Brazilian Jiu program at Straight Blast Gym Buford.  

    March saw our SBG Buford’s Muay Thai and Kickboxing athletes have a phenomenal month, as athletes Jim Sheppard, Alex Caruso, and Nan Coker all picked up wins in their respective Kickboxing fights.  Now, it’s time for the boys and girls of Buford to show off their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu chops!

    On April 27th, SBG Buford athletes Edward Shin and Daniel Smith will be competing in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for the NFC, in Atlanta GA.  Both of these martial arts athletes have competed for the NFC before, as the promotion puts on outstanding MMA and Jiu Jitsu events in the Atlanta and Buford area.  Tickets for this event are available at ticketmaster.com

    On Saturday, May 4th, our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu martial arts athletes will be competing at the Atlanta Open in Atlanta.  The Atlanta Open is the largest Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competition in the Buford area, and martial artists from all over the United States compete at this event.  Admission for spectators is FREE OF CHARGE.
