10th Planet Burbank – This is how we get down! Well, not me, I was sick this day. So, this is how my boys get down at my gym in my absence. I’d like to think I somehow inspired them to have such an amazing training session though. I was definitely helping run this session from my couch while I was sleeping off whatever virus/bug I’d picked up. =P

Great job guys!!!

cool huh!

10th Planet Burbank’s stand out planeteer, Rachel Tan, goes toe to toe against Grand Master Eddie Bravo. Eddie frequently visits the Burbank 10th Planet Moon to teach class and roll with the students.

Coaching Rachel has been one of the coolest experiences I’ve had teaching. She has alien like flexibility, is an incredibly fast learner, and has natural talent for Jiu Jitsu. She’s also deaf. Her boyfriend and fellow 10th Planet practitioner, Jason Juatco, translates the lessons to her as best he can during class. Everything else she picks up by watching. She is hungry to start competing, so watch out world, Rachel Tan is going to be double baggin’ a tournament near you!

10th Planet Burbank – #2 Technique of the Week – Getting the most out of your dojo (Alder’s 31st Birthday Edition)

That’s right bitches, technically I’m a year older than I was yesterday. If anybody wants to join me in celebration, I’ll be non-alcoholicly partying on my porch, watching bugs hit the zapper, and complaining about today’s youth. I’m just kidding, actually I’ll be DJing some underground rave party where the location is only revealed when you bring an egg to a liquor store. Well, the part about bringing an egg is from the “euphoria” episode of 90210, but the rest is true. So, if that sounds appealing to you, hollar at your boy.

10th Planet Burbank Blowin’ up! Don’t forget, if you’re in the 818 or surrounding areas, and you like to roll around on the mats with your peers, come to our gym. It’s a good time, you can lose weight, learn to stand up to bullies, learn japanese names for stuff, learn to bow correctly, build confidence, and even learn how to Ultimate Fight!
