Battlegrounds Genesis NJ behind the scenes

The night of champions was celebrated by the warriors in the ring, but I wanted to just acknowledge the people who brought you this incredible event. The obvious are the fighters, coaches and families who have supported their own in this journey to self development. Battelgrounds Genesis – Muay Thai Sparring event was Hosted at KRU Training Camp in Bergenfield, NJ. Kristine Castro organized a venue where affiliates of the KRU Muay Thai Association can test their skills in front of the people who brought them into their martial arts maturity.  It is my opinion that to be a part of the KRU Muay Thai Instructor Association is an honor and its privilege is to network with such great individuals.
