April 2018: Four New RSA Programs

We would like to announce the following additions to the RSA program listing.

We kicked off our Friday Competition Team sparring class tonight with a good amount of participation. Please remember that this is open to all members [competitors and noncompetiors alike].

​Time:
Rolling: 5:15 - 6:15 PM
Clean mats: 6:15 PM
Students out by 6:30 PM

Training will be overseen by Antonio Criado, with Ken, Pat and Lukas as supporting staff.
Sparring includes both gi or nogi.

Starting on Wednesday, April 11th, we will be starting a new Men’s White Belt class from 8:30-10:00 PM. The late evening session will follow the day class format. The 8:30-9:00 PM instruction time is only open to White and Blue Belts to maintain a lower instructor to student ratio thereby increasing personal attention by coaches and assistant instructors.

All Belt Levels on our men’s team are then welcome to attend the 9:00-10:00 PM open mat session.

As we continue to develop our student base into able teachers, this class will be taught by the following staff members:
​
James Kim
Evan Rhodes
Kevin Ko
Juno Chung
Mike Han
Lee Hyakawa

All of the listed teachers have been training for many years and will be able to guide our newest members through the basic techniques necessary for a solid technical foundation.

All Men White Belt students should make this class a priority each and every week to learn important basics, however, they should still come to classes offered on the other days on the RSA schedule. Blue Belts should try to come as well to refine their technical foundation.

For all the early risers at RSA, we will be starting a brand new morning class from 8:00-9:30 AM every Monday and Wednesday. Classes will start on Monday, April 23rd at 8:00 AM.
