On May 4th several members of the Real Contact Fight Team / FMA class went down to Team Ruthless’ gym in Virginia for a seminar with Marc “Crafty Dog” Denny.  The seminar consisted of mostly stickfighting techniques along with some knife defense.  Dog Brothers footwork has been a huge influence on how the RCFT moves on their feet.  Be it boxing, Muay Thai or MMA we have seen a usefulness in the footwork presented by Crafty.  Thank you Crafty for all the knowledge you have shared with us!

Gruhn & the RCFT

Getting ready for the April Gathering:

On April 4th, 5th & 6th Mike Norrell, Wes Auker, Steve Gruhn and Ryan Gruhn fought in the Dog Brothers ~ Gathering of the Pack commemorating the 20th anniversary of the first gathering.  This was a closed door gathering only open to those in the pack and others who were invited.  Each person fought multiple times each day testing their abilities and growing with every fight.  Congrats to Wes & Mike on their first sucessful Gatheirng of the Pack!  Read more here: http://dogbrothers.com/phpBB2/index.php?topic=1573.0
