Cubs Club

Back in September, we started Maddox in Jiu Jitsu. It was a rough start (just about everything is), but he is doing awesome now. He goes twice a week and is in the Cubs Club at Impact Jiu Jitsu. The class age is 4-7, and even though he is the youngest, he doesn't seem to even notice. The older kids help him out and he just enjoys running around and wrestling the kids. I told him to show me some moves, and this is what we got. 

Of course with every new move came an angry "Ka Yah", followed by a kick and a karate chop.



Check out their website, they do a great job! Impact Jiu Jitsu

I'm really surprised at how great his class is because they don't just focus on the physical part, but they really learn about building character, focus skills, and respect. And he comes home exhausted and ready for bed. That's the BEST part.
But, I do have to remind him (a lot)  that Griffin is NOT in Jiu Jitsu, and that he shouldn't practice his "moves" on him. Example, Griffin does not want to be thrown to the ground and sat on.

Maddox is definately the cutest little cub! you need to make a little movie of him doing his "moves".

We had the same problem when Garrett was in karate, having to remind him that Grace and Jack don't like being "practiced" on.
