What say you? Should Calen set up his drums in the gym and start a percussion based fitness class?

First off, you do not have to be a member of the gym to take advantage of these sale prices; we are extending discounts to everyone this holiday season. Consider yourself one of the family. Second point, we have limited stock--one pair of the pink sparring gloves left, as a matter of fact--and sale prices will not be carried into the 2018. When these are gone, so is our inventory and the sale with it. Thank you for supporting Wise Warrior Gym throughout 2017. You helped make our classes, clinics, seminars, and even our recent move successes. This sale is just a small gesture of gratitude to our students, customers, and all those black sheep who make Wise Warrior Gym a home away from home.

WISE WARRIORS IN TRAINING! Here is an agenda for this Saturday's All Things Sparring seminar. Get your spot registered with Calen ASAP and get your spar on! Yesss!

WISE WARRIORS IN TRAINING! This Saturday from 1:00-5:00 PM is your chance to learn everything you need to know about effective sparring. Do not miss out on this opportunity to up your game, make your martial arts matter, and test your training in a setting as close to real life as you can get without getting into a street fight or climbing in a cage. Coach Ryan Lawless will be explaining how he sets up sparring sessions to keep you safe and learning but honest and working the whole time. Coach Calen Paine has already told you about Sunday's "fight club" sessions and why they matter so much to your development as a WISE WARRIOR. Come see how sparring can help you on your martial arts journey!

Here is your "NOT TODAY" video inspiration for the day. Take this mindset into every challenge and WIN. Can't tap into that mindset on your own? Come to Martial Arts for the Mind and learn the tools to make yourself into a thriver, survivor, and warrior.

Today we joined women all over the world for fodada's 6th International Women's Self Defense Day! Thank you to all the ladies who came out to be part of this empowering event. You guys kicked butt. And thank you REACH Edmonton for the event support and giveaways. We're already looking forward to doing it again next year! #FIWSDD #fodada

Old School, Foxhole, Stacked Guard, Gunslinger, and X Guard all ably represented by the Wise Warrior team! It was a big day of learning with guest coach Ryan Lawless from Untapped: Physical Culture sharing his knowledge and love of boxing, kickboxing, footwork, and movement. Don't worry if you missed today's training—we promise that you will get to experience the results the next time you spar with one of the students who attended. Consider that your heads up and fair warning that the game has changed while you were away. See you at open sparring! 😉

WISE WARRIORS IN TRAINING! SUNDAY'S FIGHT CLUB IS TAKING A BRIEF HIATUS TO ACCOMMODATE A SPECIAL EVENT; TAKE NOTICE AND PLAN ACCORDINGLY.

In the proud tradition of providing real self-defense, Wise Warrior Gym is providing a FREE session on November 19th from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. This session will be an extension of the Hard Target Crime Prevention Program offerings that we have been a part of since its earliest days, partnering with the Edmonton Police Service and REACH Edmonton to provide tools for enhancing personal safety and tips for reducing victimization for the citizens of Edmonton. As always, our focus is on education and empowerment in a safe and inclusive environment. Please share with the women in your life and let's fill this class. No martial arts experience is necessary and no membership is required. This is being offered for free as part of the Fodada 6th International Women's Self-Defense Day by the fodada organization. (FYI: although fodada is holding their event on the 18th, we will be hosting ours on the 19th to maximize the shared space at our facility. This doesn't affect the registration process, only the date. Please make a note of it.)
