The new schedule is a hit! We've got more Renegade Training, more Kickboxing and more Jiu Jitsu. Remember Benton's Ultimate Fight Night is this Saturday night at The Armory! We're needing some volunteers to help with setup and breakdown of the show. There's a sign-up sheet in the lobby. Revolution Benton will have 7 of it's own fighters on the card!

Justin Fiser
Jeremy Tompson
Wes Baxter
Jim Whitley
Helen Davis
Jason Davis
Royce Cummings

Plus many more fights!
I'd talk about the after party but it's a secret. You all will have to ask me in person ;)

The new t-shirts and hoodies are also on the way, and there's plenty of new gear in the pro shop! We'll have some other special announcements about upcoming events soon. Also don't forget the fighters will be back in action at Caged Fury in Conway on June 21st! We've got a lot of stuff happening to get the summer kicked off proper!

After 2 years of hard, dedicated training, David Earned his Blue Belt tonight!

Congratulations David! Revolution's 10th Blue Belt!
(David's been sick the last two weeks with allergy problems. Then he tore a muscle in his back last week coughing hard, and he's still in rolling like a champ!)



Keep up the hard training! Copies of the new schedule are in the lobby. We take it up a notch next week!

We have a BJJ Seminar this THURSDAY in Benton and the cost is $25. We'll cover advanced techniques and a lot of other good stuff. SATURDAY we have a BJJ Seminar in Hot Springs. See you at one...or both!

Fights in Benton May 17! Are you ready?

The people have spoken! We'll be releasing a new schedule this week, which will begin on this coming Monday. We'll be expanding the kickboxing, adding a lot of new stuff in and adding more BJJ classes to the schedule. Also be aware we have two Brazilian Jiu Jitsu seminars this week. One will be here in Benton on Thursday night at 7:00. The other will be in Hot Springs on Saturday at 12:00. We will also be doing a seminar coming up at Conway MMA. I'll get the date out for that as soon as it is set. Don't forget! The fights here at the Benton Armory next Saturday night on May 17th in the new Monster Cage! We've already got a full card of Benton fighters ready to get in there. Check with us here at the school for tickets! We'll have some more big names and announcements over the next couple of weeks!

Great work this week, and it's good to see a lot of the competitors back in after the tournament. We've got a few seminars coming up, so get ready for those in the next few weeks, and of course the upcoming MMA fights!

Jory did some extreme training today,
Here he is showing off his 40+ inch Vertical Jump. Keep an eye out. Word on the street is Jory will be making a brief return to his old event the decathlon a little later this year! We're negotiating a deal, and he's been spotted out on the weekends throwing some discus. Would you like your image airbrushed on his shirt? Contact us for details!

Come do some Renegade!
p.s. we wont make you jump over the hurdles or anything else inhuman :)


So, I stayed up almost all night the night before the tournament bracketing things, well a bunch of us did actually. I think I must be getting old because it took me a few days to recover from that......

Anyway, HUGE success for REVOLUTION at the Arkansas' Invitational! We've got a ton of up and comers!
We had a few people ask and we brought home 33 Medals! Congrats to everyone on a job well done, whether you placed or not. We had a few people winning matches who made some strategical errors that either kept them from getting their points or allowed the opponent to score. One of the reasons for this tournament was to help everyone get experience. We will quickly fix those things so that no one makes the same mistake again :) Some of the men's divisions were huge!

The tournament was a huge success.
Congrats to Royce for winning the No Gi absolute and Jeremy for winning the Advanced Gi absolute. Congrats guys!
I'm really proud of everyone who entered, and even those who came to watch but didn't compete. Look for pics and more tomorrow! If we could get everyone in for a group pic here and in HS that'd be great, we didn't get one at the competition...

Hope all had a good weekend and it's back to training :)

Good training this past week everyone!
Everyone is training hard for the upcoming tournament. We have a few kids training extra hard; making it to both the youth and adult classes.

Patrick won his fight this weekend. He just began training with us just prior to the fight. He looked great during his fight and we are proud to have him training with us! Thanks to everyone who came out to support him.



Please pray for Bro Ray he is in the hospital.
