Urquidez Sensei will be offering three workshops, Friday 17th at 7:30pm, Saturday the 18th at 10:30am, and Sunday the 19th at 12:30pm, that are sure to improve your technique and strategy while passing on some of the more important lessons in life!

For almost five decades Benny "the Jet" Urquidez has been a moving force in the martial arts. Benny The Jet’s professional fighting record stands at 200-plus wins and Zero losses, his accomplished World Title Defense Record stands at 63 wins and zero losses with "57 knockouts." He is the only fighter to have retained six World Championships in five weight divisions, for 24 consecutive years.

Coming out of retirement in 1993 at the age of 42, he again demonstrated his unique fighting style, defeating Yoshihisa Tagami, the 25-year-old Japanese World Welterweight Champion, to win the World Light Middle Weight Championship. Sensei has written four instructional books and has released eight instructional videos. He is also the hero in a series of Japanese comic books entitled Benny "The Jet."
