CHANGES
TO OUR PROGRAMS
We are excited to announce the addition of Academy Soma
(Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) to our facility. Matt Strack (Owner/Instructor) is
one of a very small group of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu students to receive
his Black Belt while under direct instruction from Master Pedro
Sauer in Salt Lake City, UT. Matt started Academy Soma to share the
knowledge of Jiu Jitsu that he has acquired over the past 12 years.
Academy Soma was created as a school to help people overcome
obstacles on the mat and in life. The focus of Academy Soma is to
engage students in learning while using a smooth or soft approach.
For more information about Academy Soma visit them on the web at:
www.somabjj.com
ACADEMY SOMA is located inside Oxford Martial Arts and Fitness in
Oxford, OH.
