Hello, can anyone tell me more about the seminar or the instructor?
 
I've been to one of Matt's seminar's before. He's a great instructor. The seminar's definitely worth the price.

Hi Kenny, the seminar is going to be on sat and sun and we will "probably" be going over basic drills and attacks for stand up clinch and ground. With some Q and A on Sunday if time permits.
As to the instructor, Matt is a very down to earth no b.s. guy. Check out the SBGi website if you want greater details. www.straightblastgym.com
Hope that helped?

Hey Marvin,

Sorry I could not make it! How was the seminar?
Was Matt's teaching skills as good as his reputation!
Could you give us all a review! Thanks!

Hey Brian,
The seminar went great!
On Saturday we worked SBG stand up 101 & 201 w/ a little clinch thrown in for good measure.
On Sunday we worked guard surfing drills and cross-side top.
Matt is a great coach, all of our games have improved just this weekend because of the training methods and philosophy.

P.S. A big thanks to Ian K! I couldn't have done the seminar without him.
