Who is Cassandra "Casey" Blaso?
Cassandra started training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in December of 2003 at the age of 19. She has been focused mainly on her Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and also trains Boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, Judo, and wrestling on the side. She has fought in many tournaments and has succeeded. Her goals in 2007 are to become Pan American Champion, ADCC Champion, and World Champion. Another goal of hers is to get back in the ring and take on her second MMA fight. This will hopefully happen in August of 2007.
Cassandra works full time at the Monkey Bar Gymnasium at the front desk and also instructs fitness classes there. She dedicates most of her time to the gym either working or training there. She also teaches Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes once a week for beginners at Martingilios Martial Arts and has some wonderful students. When she can, she will travel to compete to support the team.
Her faith, dedication, and support from her peers, family, training partners, instructors and mentors have helped her get where she is today and she will do her best to keep striving to be a World Champion!
