For those ladies and gentlemen who appreciate the finer things in life. For those of us who take both our Jiu Jitsu and whiskey from the top shelf. For the ones that can appreciate the heat of a bourbon and a dust up on the mat… This experience is for you!
The premise is an hour and half session led by a high level Gi expert, an hour and a half session led by a No Gi expert, as well as 30 minute rolling sessions in both Gi and No GI, to be followed by a whiskey tasting as well as catering. The experience is intended to capture the comradery shared after a hard training session by enhancing the moment with premium spirits and a meal, amongst like-minded individuals.
