FOUNDER 

Joel Thomas

I was just a child when I first dreamt of becoming a professional MMA Fighter. While many of my peers moved on to more traditional pursuits, I never gave up on the sport. My raw talent and dedication helped me stand out as a natural phenom. After an injury early in my career I turned to coaching. This is wear I grew my passion to build the dream with others.

CEO

Rose Alfonso

Gym Owner of Warriorcamp, Combative Sports Manager state of Washington and promoter of Proving Grounds. My background is marketing and Graphic designs.  I was always a fan of combat sports but it was my first date with my husband at Bellator that started the passion. It was also the start to paperwork submissions for fighters and sponsor searches that lead to talks with matchmakers and promotors that started me in the filed, 10 years later its all I do. I am also a blue belt in BJJ :) . My fighting is all outside of the cage to build the opportunities and platforms for all these athletes.
