After a long time not posting anything, we are back blogging and letting you know what goes on with our team here in Southern California. Spring has officially arrived and the weather slowly but surely has been warming up. The team here in San Pedro has been trainning really hard for the past couple of months. With the Pan Ams coming up, we have 4 students fighting this year to defend our flag. John Martinez and Michael Delaney are fighting adult white belt, Robbie Romero in the juvenile blue belt, rooster and Eddie Parra on the adult blue belt feather weight.
One more week and the game is on!… Once again anybody from RGC that is coming down to LA to fight Pan Ams, is more than welcome to get your rolling in at our school.

Sparring match between uncle vs nephew. Robbie ‘McLovin’ Romero fights his uncle Ruben Romero in a exciting “friendly” mma sparring session. Our Thursday night classes are full of action, good techniques and good laughters! Lol..
Here are two matches that happened about 4 or 5 months ago. I just thought i ‘d share these images with you, so the family throughout the world is up to date with what is happening on the West Coast of the USA.
I hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone!…….. I am so sorry for not having posted anything lately but due to crazy relocation times we did not have all that time to post anything really…
Anyways, it is time for good news! Our RGC team here in Southern California represented us very well this past weekend. (july 11th and 12th). On Saturday the kids and juniors were a total of seven fighters and we scored 5 medals, on the next day was the adults white belt day to represent our team with four more fighters and scoring 3 more medals. It was a great overall result! Our team was made of very unexperienced fighters for the most part and even though they did an outstanding job!
The Team and results:
Cole Turner (9) – yellow belt – 1st place. Outstanding dominance in all three matches!
Chris de Reza (10) – white belt – 2nd place
Noah Prieto (9) – white belt – 3rd place
Anthony Garcia, Jr (6) – white belt
Aaron Brice, Jr (10) – white belt
Robbie Romero (14) – orange belt – 3rd place
Eddie Parra (16) – blue belt – 3rd place
