GB SANTA BARBARA
Here is The Perfect Gift For Your Friends and Family! 30 Days of Unlimited BJJ Training at Gracie Barra Santa barbara for Only $20!!! Follow the link bellow to buy this fantastic deal!!!
www.groupon.com/deals/gracie-barra-brazilian-jiu-jitsu-academy?c=dnb&p=1
Aside from climbing out of rattlesnake-infested quicksand or posing for rattlesnake-infested watercolor portraits, few activities combine the focus and physicality seen in jiu-jistsu training. Give fist-paintings a little martial artistry with today's Groupon: for $20, you get one month of unlimited jiu-jitsu and self-defense classes at Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy (up to a $206 value, including a one-time $50 registration fee).
Led by second-degree black belt Rodrigo Clark, certified instructors at Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy teach kids and adults the fundamentals of jiu-jitsu and self-defense with a comprehensive curriculum used in more than 300 schools worldwide. Highly structured classes condense diverse Brazilian jiu-jitsu tactics into a set of fundamental moves and basic principles that prepare students to defend themselves against would-be assailants or strangers with sugar-free candy. Within 30 days of training, students of all ages can learn more than 60 techniques that stress both fun and fitness. Depending on their skill level, Groupon-holders can create their own self-defense patchwork quilt by attending as many sessions as they wish from a schedule packed with up to six classes a day.
A massive, 1,800 square-foot facility affords ample space to brandish their skills, while clean mats pad practice grapples. Much more than a fighting style, jiu jistu emphasizes discipline and respect for others and oneself, and students will quickly learn the rules of etiquette that come standard in every classroom. Though Groupon-holders are not required to wear uniforms, they may opt to purchase the school's uniform at half off ($70, normally $140), and will receive a free uniform if they sign up for a membership after their free month. While the deal is only valid for this location, full membership will give patrons access to any of its 300 schools.

Sonnen sporting new shirt
However obvious the theme, Chael Sonnen has a new T-shirt—printed up by his UFC counterpart Stephan Bonner—to wear around.
What do you think, dear reader, with Uncle Sam Sonnen manage to land his “big stick”, or will he go home with his tail between his legs, should he get the rematch with UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva in São Paulo he so craves?

ufc 140 news:
UFC 140 treated the crowd at Toronto, Canada’s Air Canada Center to a thrilling spectacle in the octagon, and some of the stars of the show earned extra padding for their bank accounts for their efforts.
As expected, submission-of-the-night honors went to Frank Mir for his kimura armlock on Rodrigo Minotauro. Now the best knockout award went to South Korea’s Chan Sung Jung, for his drubbing of Mark Hominick in just seven seconds.
Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida each earned an extra 75,000 dollars for the main event deemed to be the fight of the night.

Some Key Points:
No points for the back if you have a body triangle or your legs crossed only if you have traditional hooks.
If you sweep and your opponent turtles and you hold it for 3 seconds you get the points for the sweep.
If you start sweeping and you don’t deliberately seek to finish the sweep and come back and preserve the position you will not recieve the advantage anymore.
Recovering the half-guard does not mean an advantage for the athlete who was or was mounted in a position of immobilization.
