GRACIE DIET :
The Gracie Diet was developed  by Master Carlos Gracie Sr.   The idea behind it is to keep the PH of meals as neutral as possible, balancing the substances through the proper combination.  We will be sending you recipes every month. I hope you can enjoy it as much as we all do.
THURSDAY BREAKFAST :
Just a reminder that get together every last  Thrusday of the month after the 7:30 am class for a group class breakfast.  Everyone is welcome to join us and feel free to bring something delicious if you like .
