Follow her journey at Lauren Cione congrats great job

Thursday mornings are all about building confidence from the bottom position.

This week our Girls Summer Development Wrestling class focused on the details of getting off the bottomβ€”building a strong base, creating movement, hand control, and getting back to your feet. These are the fundamentals that win matches.

Whether you’re preparing for your first season or looking to sharpen your skills before competition, this class is for you.

To everyone who supported the Shark Dawg Training Defensive Football Fundamentals Campβ€”

After careful consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s camp.

While we’re disappointed we won’t get the opportunity to work with all of the young athletes who signed up, we’re incredibly grateful for the support this event received from our community.

A sincere thank you to every parent, athlete, coach, and volunteer who believed in what we were trying to build.

Most importantly, thank you to our amazing sponsors for immediately stepping up and wanting to invest in Tucson’s youth:

Your willingness to give back to our community did not go unnoticed, and we’re truly thankful for your partnership.

For everyone who has already registered, full refunds will be issued to your original payment method as quickly as possible.

Although this event won’t happen as planned, this isn’t the end of Shark Dawg Training. We look forward to creating future opportunities to serve young athletes and continue building something special for Tucson.

Thank you for your understanding, your encouragement, and your support.

JJWL – Match 2 of 2 Jiu Jitsu World League

Isabella SantaMaria put everything together in this match.

She opened with a clean inside trip, immediately transitioned into her guillotine sequence, and when her opponent defended, she stayed composed through the scramble.

Rather than forcing the finish, Bella followed the movement, secured the back, and finished with a rear naked choke.

This is exactly what we’re striving forβ€”connecting wrestling, judo, and jiu-jitsu into one continuous system. Every position leads to the next opportunity.

Bella continues to prove that being coachable and trusting the process accelerates growth. She’s developing into a well-rounded grappler by blending all three disciplines.

JJWL – Match 1 of 2

Isabella Santa Maria was moved up to the Grey Belt division and found herself facing another wrestler.

While her primary focus has always been wrestling and judo, her newaza (ground game) is still developing. Every tournament is another opportunity to gain experience and continue building her Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

What Isabella may lack in mat time, she more than makes up for with her willingness to learn. She is incredibly coachable and trusts the process. As a coach, she’s one of the few athletes I can β€œdrive like a video game.” She does an outstanding job of getting herself into strong positions, listening between movements, and making the adjustments in real time.

That ability to stay calm, process information, and execute coaching is a skill that will continue to pay dividends as her Jiu-Jitsu evolves.

This is Match 1 of 2.
