A New Month, a New Focus: Sweeps!
We’re kicking off November with a new curriculum cycle in our Vipers BJJ and Cobras BJJ classes!
This week, we’re diving into sweeps, starting with two great techniques: the Double Ankle Sweep and the Tripod Sweep.
Both techniques teach our students how to use timing, balance, and leverage to take an opponent from standing to the mat. Rather than relying on strength, we’ll be focusing on controlling our opponent’s balance and recognizing the right moment to make our move.
These are great foundational techniques, and we’re excited to see the kids start putting them into action!
💡 Lauzon Life Lesson: Keep It Simple & Stay Patient
“Simple lasts. Be patient — what matters is what you do while you wait.”
Sometimes the best way to improve isn’t to make things more complicated. It’s to slow down, focus on the basics, and keep practicing.
In Jiu-Jitsu, we see this all the time. Students want to learn the next big move, but the ones who consistently improve are usually the ones who take their time and get really good at the fundamentals.
The same goes for school, sports, and everyday life. Progress doesn’t always happen as quickly as we’d like, but patience and consistent effort will take you a long way.
🔫 Mark Your Calendars: Kids Holiday Nerf Party!
Saturday, December 12 at 2:00 PM
It’s officially November, which means we’re getting closer to one of the most anticipated events of the year — our Annual Kids Holiday Nerf Party!
If you’ve never experienced one of our Nerf parties, you’re in for a treat. We turn the gym into a giant Nerf battlefield, fill it with kids armed with foam dart blasters, and let the chaos begin.
It’s always one of the highlights of the year for our younger members, and we’re already looking forward to another afternoon of fun!
Check out our Kids Holiday Nerf Party Facebook event for more details.

🎃 What a Week at Lauzon MMA!
We had a busy Halloween week, and it was great seeing so many of our members getting involved!
🥊 Jay Perrin’s Costume Kickboxing Seminar
Tuesday night, Jay Perrin hosted our Costume Kickboxing Seminar, and everyone showed up ready to have some fun!
We had a great turnout, some awesome costumes, plenty of laughs, and, of course, some great training.
It’s always fun when we can mix things up a little and bring a different kind of energy to the mats. A big thank you to Jay for putting together a great seminar and to everyone who came out and participated!
👻 Costume BJJ — A Great Way to Wrap Up Halloween!
We kept the Halloween festivities going this morning with our Kids & Adults Costume BJJ session!
It was awesome seeing everyone dressed up and having a good time together. There were some creative costumes, plenty of laughs, and some entertaining rounds on the mats.
We love events like these because they bring everyone together in a different way. It’s a chance for our kids, adults, coaches, and families to enjoy the gym outside of the usual class routine.
Thanks to everyone who participated and helped make Halloween week such a fun one!
🥋 Annual BJJ Promotions & Adult Holiday Party — December 19
Saturday, December 19 at 2:00 PM
One of our biggest days of the year is coming up!
Our Annual BJJ Promotions will take place on Saturday, December 19, beginning at 2:00 PM, followed immediately by our Adult Holiday Party.
Promotions are always a special day at Lauzon MMA. It’s an opportunity to recognize the hard work, consistency, and dedication our teammates have put into their training throughout the year. Whether you’re receiving a new belt, supporting a teammate, or just coming to celebrate, we’d love to have everyone there.
And once promotions wrap up, it’s time to eat!
We’re bringing back the holiday potluck, and we’d love for everyone to contribute something if they’re able. Starting next week, we’ll have a sign-up sheet at the front desk where you can let us know what you’d like to bring.
Homemade dishes, appetizers, desserts, or your go-to party favorite — it’s all welcome!
Even if you can’t make it to the promotions, you’re still welcome to join us for the party afterward. It’s a great chance to spend some time with teammates without having to worry about anyone trying to choke you.
We’re looking forward to a great afternoon and evening celebrating another year together!
🥊 Big Night at Cage Titans — November 14!
We’ve got an exciting night of fights coming up on Saturday, November 14, at Cage Titans!
It’s always a great time when our team gets together to support the local MMA scene, and we’re looking forward to a big night of action. Our fighters and coaches put in a tremendous amount of work preparing for these events, and there’s nothing quite like the energy of fight night.
Mark your calendars, and stay tuned for more details as we get closer. We’d love to see a big Lauzon MMA crowd out there!
Thanks for Being Part of Our Team!
Between the Halloween events, the start of a new curriculum cycle, and our holiday celebrations right around the corner, there’s a lot to look forward to at Lauzon MMA.
