What's your New Year's resolution???
December 24, 2010
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu brings many attributes to the table that can have a positive impact on anyone's life. With the New Year rolling around it's time for us all to start planning for the positive changes we will make in our lives to better ourselves and the impact we have on others. Picking up a new sport is always a good way to initiate positive change in…

Your Jiu Jitsu Signature
December 16, 2010
We all put a lot of hours in on the mat in BJJ, making the “expert” classification one that is far more inaccessible than most other endeavors in life… This should eventually make you wonder “how might I apply these transformative lessons to other goals I have both on and off the mat?”
Some see the instructor student relationship as one where the instructor…
Foundry Jiu Jitsu Goals: Series 1
December 3, 2010
"Don't Shoot Your Canon from a Canoe!"
When we begin Jiu Jitsu training it is all new from the ground up. We “snakey” and “scoot” our way down the mat. We stand and move stiffly as the instructor coaches us to “loosen up.” Over time we begin to do many of these movements naturally, or at least have a solid understanding…
Moving Day Details!
November 27, 2010
Hey Everyone-
We just wanted you all to be up to date on the moving day details. We will be moving from the Farmington Rec Center to 155 Main St on Tuesday at our normal class time. We will be meeting at the Rec Center to load up our gear and bring it to the new location. When we are done setting up mats on Main st we will be having Open Mat, so don't forget your…
The Foundry Lives On
November 26, 2010
We are happy to announce that we have a new home! We will be leaving the Community Center come Dec 1st and moving into our new location. The new location is right across from Java Joe's in downtown Farmington. 155 Main St, Farmington ME 04938 to be exact, so no worries we are not moving far at all.
The best part about this move is we will be able to offer the same classes and times at the SAME PRICE! It will actually be easier now for us to run promotions like free private lessons etc so stay tuned for those.
Congrats to Seth!!!
