Claim this eventJeff Curran and Mike Diaz bring Big Frog Nation’s two-day gi camp to Bushin Martial Arts Academy in Williamsburg, Virginia, on November 13–14, 2026. The two longtime Pedro Sauer teammates have trained alongside one another for more than 30 years. Their camp welcomes all skill levels and emphasizes technical development, live practice and a relaxed, social weekend rather than competition preparation. Instruction, live drills and open mats give you time to work through details and then put them into practice. Arrive early for optional Thursday-evening questions and answers with Jeff and Mike, followed by an open mat at no additional cost for registered camp attendees. All sessions are gi; bring a white, blue or black gi. No technique-by-technique syllabus has been announced. Away from the mats, Friday’s team dinner is at Pitchers in the DoubleTree, and Saturday brings a 7pm potluck dinner and UFC watch party at John Nguyen’s home. Weather permitting, the group may also head across the street to Virginia Beer Co. and its food truck for lunch. Meal charges and social-event arrangements are not confirmed as included in registration; further details go to registered participants. The $150 registration is complimentary for Big Frog Nation All Access members and registered Emerald Coast Experience/Destin Camp guests, who must still select their complimentary registration option. A separate DoubleTree group room block offers a convenient base for the weekend. Colonial Williamsburg, local restaurants and Busch Gardens Williamsburg offer options for extending the trip with family. Confirm current registration and hotel availability directly before booking.
Bring a white, blue or black gi. Registered attendees receive further social-event details. The official event page does not publish a cancellation policy or a detailed technique syllabus; confirm these and current availability with the organizer. Hotel booking is separate.
