The sponsor Eve and I work with,
Jason owns the whole studio but mainly runs the martial arts and fitness part
of it. His friend Scott runs the
fight gym (where they do personal training, MMA fighting and American
boxing). Scott isn’t the
biggest guy but he is muscular and always has a stern look on his face, which
makes him very intimidating. We
stay out of the fight gym unless accompanied by our sponsor because our project
isn’t meant to be in there but also because Scott scares the bologna out of
us. Or at least he did until
today. Today, after an awesome
circuit fitness class followed by some more boxing training, I showed Jason the
pictures I took of the MMA fights and guess who walked in just in time to see
them? Scott. I was so nervous for
him to look at them but he ended up loving the pictures. I believe his exact words were “These
are cool”; he is a man of many words.
At any rate, I am now on good terms with Scott, he sent us a thank you
email for the pictures and even said hi when he came by later in the day!
Also after we finished boxing
today, Jason mentioned that a couple women who take his fitness class in the
morning with us have offered to teach us some self-defense groundwork. We of course graciously accepted the offer
and will hopefully get to learn some self-defense techniques too as well as the
cool boxing stuff we are already learning!
