From www.MMAinPA.com:
The Cage MMA presents a seminar with former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei "The Pit Bill" Arlovski on Saturday, November 10, starting at 2:00 PM, at the Sovereign Performing Arts Center in Reading.
Arlovski, a 2-Time World Sambo Champion, will begin the seminar showing techniques in Sambo. A Gi is optional, but you are encouraged to bring one if you have it. The Pit Bull and his JJ Coach, Dino Costeas, will then instruct you in "DINO" Jiu Jitsu. Next up, Team Pit Bull will go over Arlovski's take down defense, and also striking and kicking techniques that made him an M-1 Champion. Team Pit Bull will work to make sure each participant is performing all the moves correctly throughout the seminar. Special one-on-one training with Arlovski will be coordinated through exhibition
grappling matches prior to the start of the instruction phrase of the seminar. The seminar will close with an autograph session and photo opportunity with Arlovski.
