Jason Day joins Tactix Gym
Vancouver
January 19, 2010
Sometimes in life things just fall into place without rhyme or reason. This is
what happened when I moved to Vancouver a couple months ago. I moved out
without any solid plan for my training or career path, just on a whim that I
needed a change of scenery. On my second day in Vancouver I walked into Tactix
Gym on Hornby Street and never turned back. I am now the Head MMA Coach along
with Dan Rizzuto at Tactix and we are building an army.
My good friend Bruno Capdeville was teaching the BJJ class and asked me to come
check it out, I instantly grew attached to the facility and the team they have
running it. Laurian Lapadatu is the owner and manager of Tactix and is one of
the most straight shooters in the game, we have his full support and he is eager
to help us build and grow the Martial Arts program within Tactix.
Bruno is continuing to build the BJJ program as we work with him to build the
MMA division. I believe the facility and team we have in place is poised to be
the new standard that gyms will look to in Vancouver. At the core of our
philosophy is family and team, without those two things in a fighters life he
has nothing.
We are looking to be much more then just a place for fighters to train and
workout...we are building a home for fighters at Tactix! Check back for more
updates and happenings often cause we will be busy! You can LIKE us on facebook

"A convincing win over a tough
opponent like Taylor may just be
what the UFC is waiting to see
from our number 4 ranked
Canadian MW to invite him back
to the ‘big show’. Headlining a
card with fireworks written all
over it and with a solid team of
trainers, coaches and sponsors
behind him, a determined and
focused Jason ‘Dooms’ Day is

Sponsorship is the Secret to
Success for MMA Athletes
August 17, 2009
Sponsorship
turned Jason “Dooms” Day’s
passion for fighting into a
full-time job and has encouraged
him to look beyond his own
career to the future of mixed
martial arts in Alberta.
Before
securing major sponsorship, Day
was like any fighter trying to
make his way in MMA - he had a
day job and trained in the
evenings. When he had to travel
to fight, he arranged time off
work, mentally prepared for the
fight as quickly as possible,
and returned to “real life” on
Monday.
“Everything
changed for me once I was able
to fight full time,” says Day.
“My mental focus, my nutrition,
the intensity I was able to
train with. I was building
houses before and it was
difficult to put everything into
training at night when I was so
physically spent from my job.”
