Belt Promotions Results and Pics!
This weekend we held our biggest Belt Promotion ceremony yet! First up were the kids. Our Childrens Program is only a few months old, but we have a fantastic group of kids who come to class and always give 100%. Three of them were promoted to yellow belt, and the rest all got stripes on their belts!
After the kids were the Adults, and I can't even begin to describe how impressed I am with the new blue belts. Not only are technically sound, consistent and hungry to learn.. They each trained with everyone in class (about 25 students) for 2 minutes each- Non-Stop. That's almost an hour straight!
And to top it all off we had a special guest- Undefeated Pro MMA fighter and BJJ Black Belt Tim Carpenter was in the house!
