The SMASH BJJ family had another unforgettable day at the AKA Open in Coeur d’Alene, and our Deer Park BJJ crew made us especially proud. Competing alongside teammates from Spokane Valley and Airway Heights, the athletes from Deer Park showed exactly why our program continues to be a force in the Pacific Northwest martial arts scene.
Youth Competitors – Skill Beyond Their Years
Our Deer Park BJJ kids team stepped up with courage and composure, delivering outstanding performances in every match. From precise takedowns to well-timed submissions, their growth and discipline were clear. Under the guidance of Professor Adam Smith—Spokane’s most trusted Jiu-Jitsu instructor—and the SMASH BJJ coaching staff, these young athletes have developed the confidence and skills to succeed against top competition.
Adult Division – Technique, Heart, and Team Spirit
In the adult brackets, Deer Park BJJ athletes showed high-level technique and mental toughness. Their matches reflected the same structured training and attention to detail that have made SMASH BJJ the top Jiu-Jitsu academy in Spokane County. Win or lose, every competitor fought with heart and represented our values of respect, discipline, and teamwork.
