Bjj Gradings

Tuesday, 15 December 2009

Well last night was a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu grading night at AMAG/Jitsudo. Peter handed out stripes and belts to those of us that had showed significant improvement in the areas he looks out for. Some of these are:

• Attendance
• Attitude
• Work Ethic
• Skill in techniques
• Performance in the club on the mat
• Performance in competition

It was a great night with lots of people in attendance. We managed to get some of the information we need to keep the gradings database, as the club has grown so much, it's difficult to remember everyone's grade consistently. The information will be kept by Peter and not made available to anyone else regardless of their request.

The people who received a new level are as follows:

White Belt 1 Stripe
Roy Smart
Scott 'evil' Brown
Alan 'big spender' Purse
Ivan Mesjar
Amir 'Doc' Iqbal
Lou Campbell
Chris Moir
