Team Grading: our newest Blue Belts

Congratulations to our new blue belts this year who got graded at the Paulo Seminar in October, and our 20-year anniversary Roots seminar.

Blue belt represents your first coloured grade in Jiu Jitsu, and with it, comes the acknowledgment that you now possess the skills to save yourself in a life-threatening situation, and you have the ability to dominate non-grappling martial artists in a grapple. That’s why every martial artist who doesn’t have a grappling background, should train with a Jiu Jitsu Professor and at least achieve the rank of blue belt. You could otherwise find yourself in a situation where you’re taken out of your skill set.

With a blue belt or equivalent training, you would regain your composure and establish the distance and range that suits.

Congrats again to our new blue belts:

Zoran Markovski
