This past weekend, our team celebrated another successful No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu seminar and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) belt promotion ceremony. Capping it off was the exciting promotion of two more students to the rank of purple belt!
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, belt promotions are the culmination of several years of hard work. Unlike most martial arts, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu only recognizes four belts on the journey to black belt (white, blue, purple, and brown), and the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) sets very strict standards for graduating to a new rank. So, when you see someone wearing a colored belt in Jiu-Jitsu, you can be assured that they have worked very hard to earn it!
In addition to celebrating the promotion of two new purple belts on our team, we were also very excited to see numerous students earn stripes on their Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu white belts. Stripes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu signify progress on one’s path to their next belt level and are likewise no small feat. We at team Modern Martial Arts and Fitness recognize this outstanding achievement and would like to wish a very special congratulations to all of our members who received a promotion. Great job, everybody!
