Learning from the Master himself!
As martial artists we are constantly trying to improve ourselves and strive to be the best that we can be. This theory applies not only to improving our martial arts technique, but also in our strength as instructors. Our ability to pass on our knowledge to our students can be done in many different ways, depending on whether the student is a visual learner, audible learner, etc… The only way to improve oneself as an instructor is to seek out and learn from the best.
This week Master Jay, Coach Corey, and Coach Derek are adding to our skills as instructors by learning some amazing teaching strategies from Master Lloyd Irvin and Master Marcos Avellan from Freestyle Fighting Academy in Miami, FL. Here Master Lloyd Irvin shares some of his knowledge that has produced UFC fighters Dominick Cruz, Phil Davis, Mike Easton, and Brandon Vera as well as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belts JT Torres, Jimmy Harbison, Jared Weiner, Brad Court, Mike Fowler, and myself. NJ United Mixed Martial Arts is proud to represent Team Lloyd Irvin and is always looking to improve our academy in every way possible!
