At Progressive, we host a guest Coach or Instructor about once per quarter to expose the students to philosophies and training methods different from ours!

Our last ever workshop at the Ventura location will be a Silat workshop w Matthew Cohen on Friday the 28th of June from 6-8 PM.

In the past we have been lucky to have world champion grapplers such as Brian Peterson (Teach Me Grappling) , professional boxing coaches and trainers of world title holders in both Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts such as Coach Roger Romo from Oxnard, and amazing submission specialists like Eric Medina (the Darce Knight).

Recently we hosted Graciela Casillas, former world title holder in both boxing & kickboxing as well as a Black belt Hall of Fame member to teach “spontaneous knife defense” on Friday the 7th of October. It was our first time hosting a woman (but def won’t be the last) instructor, and the first time focusing on weapons training.

Our last Friday workshop was hosting local favorite and long time coach, Kru Ken Rose of Ken Rose Muay Thai Warriors in Newbury Park.

This event is FREE to PMAV members, open to non members $20. Please register in advance as space will be limited.
