Huge congratulations to our friends at Richmond Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Self-Defense Academy for their 10th anniversary celebration yesterday, and to the new belt promotions! Andrew Smith also received his first degree on his black belt, and Brandon Powell (head instructor of Charlotte BJJ) was promoted to black belt!

Other belt promotions included Acie Bryan and Danny Yakel to brown belt, and to Mark Maddux and Chris Zabrosky to purple belt.

Biggest thanks to Julio “Foca” Fernandez for once again sharing his brand of jiu jitsu with us!
