Youth Sports (Martial Arts)

Have you been searching for youth sports in the Seaside, Astoria or Clatsop County Area?  There are a variety of seasonal youth sports in our area including soccer, wrestling, football, baseball/softball, swimming, track, basketball and volleyball.  Many parents haven’t considered that martial arts may be a great alternative to traditional team sports.

When you account for the long winters we experience here here in the Great NW it leaves us with limited options for kids sports in our area.  Subsequently this leaves many parents looking for youth sports that are indoors. Martial Arts are great for kids, teens and adults and the benefits are endless including:

  • Greater Athelethism
  • Greater Self Coordination and Body Control
  • Improved Grades in School
  • Improved Concentration and Focus
  • Improved Self Esteem and Self Discipline

If you are looking to enroll your child in the right martial arts program then bring your child to the Seaside – Astoria Jiu Jitsu Academies.  We have customed programs for kids that will give them even greater benefits then some traditional youth sports.  Listen to what this proud parent has to say about the world class kids program:

“Jiu Jitsu is the first sport that my son has committed to. He loves it and can’t wait each day to go to class. It is building him up in more ways than I can count. Coach’s Zach and Nate are so great with the kids. They keep them in line and focused but make sure they are still having fun.Thanks!”   – Alaina Giguere

Our classes work on many of the same athletic aspects as you would find in many youth sports such as team work, skill work, speed and balance work, gymnastic based movements, strength training, as well as working on flexibility and coordination .  Click Here To Check Out a Live Kids Class!

If you think your child could benefit from training martial arts then we invite you to bring your child down to the Seaside or Astoria Jiu Jitsu Academies for your FREE Student/Parent Consultation, Academy Tour, and how your child could qualify for 30 DAYS OF FREE TRAINING.  We are the youth sports one stop shop!

Weight Loss Seaside Oregon

Weight Loss

Many people in our local community are concerned about weight loss.  Here’s a startling example to further demonstrate the need to be informed about weight loss.  “In 2008, more than one third of children and adolescents were overweight or obese,” reports the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.  This means that we all probably know someone concerned with the loss  of excess body fat.  Did you know that children and adolescents who are obese are much more  likely to be obese as adults?   Many people in Clatsop County are searching for ways to treat or prevent obesity in kids and adults. Check out the graph below. It clearly demonstrates that  the number of Obese Kids (ages 6-19)  has doubled in the last twenty years!

It’s not just a workout it has been a total lifestyle change.  Thanks!”

“I walked in off the street a couple of months ago, in high heels I might add, and opted to try it out for a week. After the first day I fell in love with it. The instructors, Nate and Zach, are amazing and very patient and so is everyone else in the class. I’ve been getting in shape and having fun at the same time. Jiu Jitsu is not just for guys anymore!” -  Blair Hedrick

pac rim wrestling

pac rim wrestling

The Pac Rim Wrestling Tournament has been a staple of the coastal grappling community for quite some time now.  This tournament brings wrestlers from across the state to compete in one of the best tournaments in the  Pacific NW.  Located in beautiful Seaside Oregon the Pac Rim Wrestling tournament is not one to be missed.

The Pac Rim Wrestling Classic 2012 will be hosted by the Seaside High School Athletics Dept. This annual event gets better each year and is the perfect stage to showcase some of the state’s best athletes.  The Seaside High School is a great venue for the tournament with plenty of parking, a new wrestling facility with tons of mat space and bleachers.  Not to mention you’re located in a beautiful coastal town with lots of hotels and rental beach homes.  Seaside is well accommodated to deal with visitors due to the local economy running primarily off of tourism.  Plan on making a weekend of it if you’re from out of town and make sure to take advantage of the local sights and restaurants.  If you’re a Seaside resident then don’t miss your opportunity to experience this fun event which supports local youth in a great setting.

The Pac Rim Wrestling Tournament has been growing by leaps and bounds over the years and it’s great to see so many teams and supporters in town.  For local wrestlers, this is one of the biggest tournaments of the year and the perfect opportunity to have their family and friends watch them in action.  In the past, Seaside has produced countless Pac Rim Wrestling Champions and Seaside’s current wrestling program is looking to uphold that same standard.  Like all challenging sports, if someone wishes to be good at it then it requires a lot of dedication and consistency.  In practice, wrestling is no different.  This is one reason our wrestling & grappling community should know about programs in the area that are ALREADY in place to help wrestlers improve in the off season.

So it’s 10 months until the next Pac Rim Wrestling Tournament, what are you going to do after your regular wrestling season to ensure you are going to be #1 next year? Sit on the couch and play video games? Maybe another school sport that doesn’t have the closest thing in common with a grappling sport?  This is the realty for most competitive High School athletes, but there’s a great alternative just waiting for you.

Many people have still not heard about the awesome new Self Defense and Sport of Submission Wrestling.  Submission wrestling is another word for No-Gi Jiu Jitsu, stemming from the idea that you preform all the same techniques you would in the unifrom(kimono) that you could without.  In Submission Wrestling and No-Gi Jiu Jitsu/grappling the athlete will deal with many of the same demands as a regular wrestling match or practice.  These include:

  • Building Mental Toughness
  • Strong Cardio
  • Improving Coordination, Balance, Speed and Strength
  • Developing the CHAMPIONS mindset
  • Learning new Grappling Skills
  • Increasing Self Confidence
  • Goal Setting

What is Jiu Jitsu?| 30 Days Free Training| Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy

Posted on October 17, 2011 by seasidebjj
What is ju jitsu

What is Jiu Jitsu?

What is jiu jitsu?  Many practitioners refer to jiu jitsu as a lifestyle.  More than just a martial art or sport, but an all encompassing way of life.  It is also a familiar term to hear people in the jiu jitsu community say, “Ju Jitsu is for everyone!”  This is partly due to the fact that kids and grandparents can all practice and benefit from this amazing art.

So when one of my young student’s parents asked me the other day, “What is Jiu Jitsu?”  I replied, “it’s something different for everybody you see.”  For me it’s a way of life.  For some it’s to allow their children to partake an activity that is mentally and physically challenging and that will build confidence and self discipline over time. On the other hand, for our students over 50 years of age its to help them stay active and stress free.  There is, however, many benefits that all practitioners of the art will experience if they attend class regularly.  These include:

  • Self Defense Skills
  • Structured Lifestyle
  • Stress Relief
  • Weight Control
  • Comraderie
  • Goal Setting
  • Strong Cardio and Flexibility
  • Self Confidence

what is jiu jitsu? Part 1

The martial art has been proven to be the most effective to date and has been proven time and time again in self defense situations and competitions such as the UFC or Ultimate Fighting Championship.  The self defense aspects of jiu jitsu are perfect for women who need to ward off an attacker and also for your child to have the self confidence to stand up to the playground bully.  Jiu Jitsu was built on the foundation that a weaker smaller person can overcome a bigger stronger oppenent by using techniques with the proper mechanics and leverages. They say “90%  of street fights end up on the ground!” Luckily Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a grappling martial art that focuses on dealing with opponents on the ground.  If you or your family is attacked, you will need the tools to defend the people you care about.  So when a person comes into your academy and says, “what is jiu jitsu?” You will have to explain to them the full range of how the martial art will impact their life and overall piece of mind.

What is jiu jitsu? Let Multiple Time World Champion, Xande Ribeiro, tell you why he likes Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy

What is Jiu Jitsu? Part 2

For some, the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle leads to competition in Octagons and Tournaments.  Many practitioners like the challenge of competing and knowing they will progress faster as a result of having their weaknesses exposed.  Almost all jiu jitsu academies have competition teams for kids and adults.  Grappling and Jiu Jitsu Tournaments are a safe way for kids and adults to test their skill set in a controlled environment.  Kids and Adults will learn a lot about themselves when they compete in jiu jitsu.  You get to see how a student deals with pressure and an exciting situation.  You also get to see how a competitor deals with rebounding from defeat.  Plus it’s an individual competition format that counts towards the overall teams points.

What is Jiu Jitsu?  “For me its a chance to win another medal and make my parents proud!” says one young student.

Xande in Oregon

Xande in visited Oregon for the 4th time this last August!  This was another great opportunity for people in the NW to be exposed to his world class Jiu Jitsu.  Xande lives the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle and if you spend any time around him at all you’ll realize quickly that he is  a modern day samurai!

Xande Ribeiro came out to the beautiful Oregon Coast to train with the Adamson Bro’s at their academy in Seaside, Oregon.  We also had special guest James Poupolo and Ben Baxter from Salem-Kiezer Jiu Jitsu and Tom Oberhue from Five Rings Jiu Jitsu on the mat.  Xande and James are preparing for the upcoming ADCC Championships so it was great to watch all the high level Jiu Jitsu in the room.  After a great No-Gi training session with Xande and the boys we went to go eat some sushi at Tora Sushi.

Check out what Xande has to say his training at Seaside Jiu Jitsu.Xande Ribeiro vists Seaside BJJ

Xande and the guys woke up early on Saturday to head down to Portland State University to host a seminar along with Tom Oberhue from Five Rings JJ.  This was a monumental event and once again Xande blew everyone’s mind.  Xande showed some basic positions but showed some very overlooked details that make them effective even at the highest level.  This was one of the best seminars I’ve ever since presented in all my eight years of martial arts training.   If your interested in learning Jiu Jitsu, MMA or traditional martial arts and their accompanying values then check the Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy.  They even offer a 30 DAY FREE TRIAL!

Check out the article Gracie Magazine Online did on Xande in Oregon.

Integrity|30 Day Free Trial| Seaside Jiu Jitsu Academy

Posted on June 16, 2011 by seasidebjj

 

Integrity
Integrity

Integrity: adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; quality of being honest. To help you move toward becoming the kind of person that you know you are capable of becoming, decide upon your most important values in life. Organize them in order of priority. Ranking your values is one of the most effective and quickest ways to define your character. Writing a brief definition of what each of those values means to you creates a statement that you can use to help you make better decisions. Whenever you are in a position that forces you to make a tough decision where you might have to choose between acting on one value or another, choose the value that is highest on your own personal hierarchy. Perhaps the most important thing you will ever learn is that your life only becomes better when you become better.

Your integrity precedes you and affects all of your interactions with other people. Day to day, who you are in your heart is, is confirmed by what you do and the choices you make. What you believe defines your character; your values determine what kind of human being you really are. What you will or won’t stand for tells the world what kind of person you have become. Integrity is the foundation of character, and character development is one of the most crucial activities you can take part in. Integrity is an adherence to a set of values emphasizing honesty. But it is more than honesty, it means doing the right thing no matter what, even when no one is looking.

Integrity is the number one quality of leadership. It is expressed in terms of dedication and consistency. It is reflected in an absolute devotion to keeping your word. The glue that holds all relationships together is trust, and trust is based on integrity. The most successful individuals in America are those with reputations of integrity among the people they deal with. Such high levels of integrity builds the confidence that others have in them, allowing them success. You must stand up for what is right regardless. You can’t maintain your integrity ninety percent of the time and be a leader. It has to be one hundred percent.

Integrity is very important among other morals to define character and are taught to the students at the Seaside Oregon Jiu Jitsu Academy. Both instructors, Nathan and Zach Adamson, encourage students to display these traits on a regular basis. Every move that a good instructor tells a student to make has a much deeper meaning. The most essential lessons taught to the students, especially the younger ones who are still growing into young men and women, are taught indirectly. They are taught to bow as they enter and leave the training area. The students may not even realize what they are learning. They are learning values as courtesy, self control, respect and modesty. They are learning what it takes to be a person who strives to be excellent on every occasion. Everything you do is a statement about who you really are as a person. Take advantage of the 30 Day Free Trial! Bring your little ones in and watch as they develop their character, classes start at age 5! Encourage them to build character and establish integrity!
