10th Planet Watch

This Hardy blog has been pulled down. Please tune into UFC’s Primetime on Spike TV, tonight at 10pm

Thanks again to Henry’s TKD in Christiansburg, VA. They’re working hard on becoming one of 10th Planet’s newest affiliates. It was a pleasure to meet everybody in attendance, we had a great time! I also got a chance to teach my first ever kids seminar while I was there. Big ups to the little tikes that attended. They’re going to grow up to become complete animals!

The time I spent out in Durban was absolutely amazing. Thanks again to Delon, Melanie, Darryl, Dave, Mark and Saxon, Daniel, Justin, Daniel, Martin, Graham, Sean, Hanno Caleb and Christopher. Sorry if I missed anybody. Everybody was awesome, I can’t wait until the next time.

This is gonna be huge!

It’s official, I’ll be going out to train with and coach Dan “The Outlaw” Hardy in preparation for his fight with George St. Pierre, March 27th. I have to admit, this maybe the coolest thing that’s ever happened to me. It’s a huge honor to have been asked to help Dan Hardy prepare for, quite possibly, the biggest fight of his career. I’m going to do everything in my power to see that Dan brings the belt back to the states, well, via Nottingham, U.K. at least.

I’ll be returning from teaching seminars two, soon to become 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu affiliates in Africa, just to fly right back out to New Jersey, where Dan is having his training camp. I’ll be out there for the last 3 weeks of his camp, until the fight. So, as you’re watching the fight on your color t.v., look for me in the background saying encouraging words and shaking my fist violently. I might even through up a little 10th Planet gang sign or 2. While I’m out in NJ, I’m going to try and keep a little vblog, to document the experience.

It’s been an amazing 2010 already, I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me the rest of the year. I’m very thankful for the 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu family, Eddie, and The Burbank Crew. I’ve received so much support from everyone, thanks to everybody for helping out!

Recently promoted blue belt, and guest star of The Colbert Report, Scott Elkin has made some improvements on the site. First, he went to make believe land and picked up some magical jazz dust, and sprinkled that over the site. That’s why you may have asked yourself, “Wow, 10th Planet Watch tastes so much more jazzy today.”

Secondly we added a seminars feature. If you are interested in hosting a 10th Planet seminar at your school, now you have a special area just for you. We made a form to fill out giving us all the proper information about your you and your school. This also applies affiliations. If you are interested in 10th Planet school affiliation, you mall also fill out this form.

We also added an “about me” section, which is awesome because you get to learn all about yours truly. And if you wowed by how amazing I am after reading that, you can contact me by clicking on the contacts button.

Special thanks to Scott Elkin for being such a delightful blue belt. And cuz he can “speak and types ‘puter talk reel good.” And a big thank you to all the readers that have supported 10th planet watch in 2010 :]
