A big congratulations go out to Andy “Shaggy” Acker for winning his professional Mixed Martial Arts debut last night at Madtown Throwdown 21.  It took Shaggy all of 29 seconds into the first round to secure a triangle choke and finish Jay Ellis who trains out of  Neutral Ground in Milwaukee.  Shaggy took the fight on short notice against a fighter with over 40 prefessional fights and was never in doubt he would be victorious.   In true Twisted Fitness fashion, Shaggy showed that hard work and hard training definitely pay off!

Congrats to Sonya who just returned from a weekend of Yoga Trance Dance training with Shiva Rea at the beautiful Kripalu Yoga Center in Massachusetts

Yoga Trance Dance is a meeting of yoga and dance  It is an exploration of the eternal flow of natural movement through yoga.  Beginning with prana initiating yogasanas, yoga trance dance flows into an exploration of free-form, breath driven movement to liberate one’s creative life force.

There were over 80 yoga teachers, practitioners, and dancers attending the training, culminating in a 2 hour YTD Saturday night open to the public.  With over 150 attendees, the energy and flow was incredible.  I wish you all could have been there to experience what I did.

We are planning to have a special YTD in Novemeber to celebrate Sonya’s Birthday!  We will keep you posted on the date and time.
