• Bringing SUF to Life

    At a young age, I was introduced and consumed by Mixed Martial Arts due to being in the family I was and how we were all massive fans of a growing sport. The time and effort I’ve put into learning martial arts, specifically the striking and standup aspects, has changed every value in my life and bled thru into so many things while refining my view of confrontation and communication. To change someone’s perspective in this way has always been the mission when I talk about the subject. Then there’s this possibility to change someone’s life as a teacher and give that person a new breath of insight in such a way.. that’s my dream.

    With that, i would like to announce that I am opening a complete new training facility, specifically for striking and standup fundamentals based heavily on Muay Thai Kickboxing. To learn self defense is one thing, but to understand that it’s okay to view it with an offensive mindset is what has kept me interested over the years. Youth and Adult instruction will be offered with classes being heavily influenced by a curriculum designed by the legendary Thai Boxing Champion, Duke Roufus! As the owner and lead instructor of SUF Kickboxing, I will soon be posting a full schedule along with pricing and package deals on my page!I i look forward so much to giving this area a proper version of Thai Boxing as it is truly something i’ve poured most of my life into.. Give me the chance to show you or someone you know how to truly STANDUP AND FIGHT, powered and brought to you by the world famous ROUFUSPORT!

    Due to open in early September @ 310 W Central Ave in Jamestown!

    There will be other pieces of gear, etc available to purchase on site not included in the Gear package offered above.

    !IMPORTANT!

    For Youth specifically, I will be requiring each student to attend class on a regular and consecutive basis for a minimum of 3 months before you will be evaluated by me to Spar. This means that you have to show up consistently with the understanding that not everyone can be here EVERY time class is happening, but also it has to be clear that attendance must be consistent in order to retain and implement what is being shown day to day. I will evaluate the student and give them the go ahead to take part in sparring only after 3 months of consistent attendance and a signature from their guardian.

    SPARRING is to be thought of as a very soft introduction to an obstacle in front of the student and we shall go from there, so don’t panic. We will go as the technique and Skill advance, and it varies so I assure you safety is in mind first here from me.

    3 month packages for Youth -$225

    —->Includes Gear and access to all classes offered each week PLUS a personal locker UNTIL WE RUN OUT

    If a student in the youth class can bring in a grade card showing a minimum C average in all classes for the relevant period in the school year, they will be eligible to get a discounted version of this deal for $200

    3 Month Package for Adults – $250

    ——>Includes all gear and access to all adult classes with personalized locker UNTIL WE RUN OUT

    When I realized I had the opportunity to open this place and offer what I believe to be something truly special with Roufusport, I realized that I wanted to make a core rule that is to be in full effect from day 1.

    If any member of SUF Kickboxing is proven to have instigated and taken part in a physical conflict toward someone, they will be banned for life without refund.

    To understand confrontation is to recognize and avoid it.

    With all that being said, and the schedule with pricing laid out and posted..I realize that something like this is off the grid and maybe comes off as questionable in terms of techniques being shown, etc.

    I just want to say that I’ve put a ton oif thought and time into making this a legitimate and usable curriculum, along with a really nice place to train. It means a whole lot to me and I appreciate anyone who comes in and gives me a chance to present it.

    Can’t wait to see you guys!
