The Leslieville Club is Man-Alive Martial Arts BJJ...
Our club and its programs are a direct division of Man-Alive Martial Arts Inc. The program we are offering here is the Man-Alive Martial Arts - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu curriculum. Man-Alive Martial Arts began in Leslieville many years ago under the name "Shotokan Sport Karate" and as our programs evolved, we changed the name to reflect how we were developing at the time, we were rapidly growing beyond Karate instruction. Now we offer many different kinds of classes including Self-defence, Karate, MMA, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs are offered in Leslieville as The Leslieville Club. Come and experience what we can offer through this wonderful art. For more information about Man-Alive Martial Arts please visit www.manalive.ca
Our relationships in our gym, our neighborhood, and the world around us serve to enhance our experience of who we are and directly affect the quality of our lives. Our mutual community, our village of Leslieville, is a unique and dynamic vibrant place to work, to live, and to unwind. I think it is the coolest place ever, and our little club welcomes anyone to come out and see our neighborhood for themselves. Training here is about getting together, it is about seeing friends, it is about developing relationships, in short- it is about community.
Love for what we do, love for the art, love for being in the moment. We get together and train because we enjoy it. We find it pleasurable to immerse ourselves in the experience. We get excited when we figure out something new, and we enjoy sharing these passions and experiences with others. It is a beautiful thing.
Actually, it is about FUN... and yes, we have lots of it. We are always making each other laugh. Developing a quality sense of humour, and the ability to use it is a very good thing. It is a great thing to be in a room full of friends having a good time. In every instance we are having fun, we are enjoying the moment, and we are following a course of action that benefits all those nearby. Laughter is contagious, and so is feeling happy and good about yourself. Try it -- We double-dare you, with cherries on top!
The Leslieville Club...
...Where Leslieville comes to play.
All the pictures above are taken from around the neighborhood, they are murals and art work on the side of local buildings. This is just one example of how cool this place is. For those that know, or who want to know - have a walk through Leslieville on a weekend, and between stops for brunch and ice cream, see if you can identify where all the murals are. And if you do know...come on in and tell us. You just might win something...maybe....like classes and discounts...maybe...see you soon!
