🎉 What's Happening in Henderson: $30M RE Deal, Summer Jobs & Family Restaurant Picks
Lots of fun events, plus saying goodbye to a 30 year old restaurant

In Henderson, our community grows through shared passions. My BJJ journey began at 42 after my wife wisely suggested I stop boxing: "You're already kind of dumb, how many more years do you want to get hit in the head?"
At 10th Planet Vegas, my family found not just a gym but a community. I train early mornings while my kids practice afternoons. Our recent tournament saw Alina (7) take 1st, Gabe (9) place 2nd, and me earn two silvers.

The friendships we've made through BJJ in this community have become central to our lives. Dozens of our closest friends are now families we met on the mats. I might even convince my wife to try the women's only class with Val Hamilton on Friday nights.
Through martial arts, we've built lasting friendships and discovered that strong communities form through common challenges and mutual support. Whether you're a parent or child, there's a place for you in our growing Henderson BJJ family.
By fostering these connections through shared activities and mutual respect, we contribute to building a stronger, more resilient Henderson where neighbors become friends and friends become family.
Groves family winners!
