BJJ is an integral component in an MMA fighter’s skill set. Q: I want to become a MMA fighter do you teach MMA at your gym?Ī: The main focus of our gym is the instruction of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). There have been extraordinarily gifted individuals who have received their Black Belt in 2-3 years, but this is definitely an exception to the norm. Generally it takes upwards of 7-12 years if the student trains consistently during that whole time period, however, it’s completely subjective to the individual. Q: How long does it take to get a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?Ī: This also varies from person to person. Generally it takes anywhere from 1-2 years, but there have been exceptions depending on the student’s prior training and natural abilities. Q: How long does it take to achieve the rank of Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?Ī: This varies from student to student. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is not the right art for you if you are looking to receive a new promotion every few months. Students are not promoted to a given belt level until they possess the skills that someone of that level should possess. The ranking process in BJJ can be very subjective. This includes but is not limited to consistency of training, ability to retain techniques learned, ability to apply techniques during live sparring, etc. Q: How do I receive promotion and how often?Ī: Students promotions are based upon the head coach’s assessment of their skills.

Q: Is there a belt rank test and if so, do you charge testing fees?Ī: No, there is no belt rank test and I do not charge belt rank testing fees. For both adults and children each rank has up to 4 stripes (degrees) before a promotion to the next belt level.

For children the belt system can vary by age depending on the school or association, but generally the ranks are White, Yellow, Orange, and Green. Q: What is the belt system for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?Ī: For adults there are 5 belts White, Blue, Purple, Brown, and Black. So technically we are all teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, however I do not teach from the same curriculum taught under the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu program. However, the techniques are from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is comprised of a specific curriculum which the system is taught from. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu both come from the same source. We do offer our BJJ Fundamentals class for beginners twice a week to help build their foundation in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.Ī: The answer to this is both yes and no. Q: I do not have any prior martial arts experience do you offer classes for beginners?Ī: Our classes are open to all skill levels, beginner through advanced.
