 Records are meant to be broken...a new record number of Monkeys on the mats last night and over half a dozen regular students missing, so will be hitting 30+ in no time :)

White Belt Royal Rumble winner gets another stripe!

Last night saw the return of the White Belt Royal Rumble and what a display of Jiu Jitsu, heart and warrior spirit!

As in Highlander, there can be only one and that One was young Nick, who fought for the best part of twenty minutes to become the deserving winner...he takes home a trophy for a week, the awesome hand made winner's belt for life and got another stripe on his belt for his efforts...

Well done Nick from everyone at Wimbledon BJJ :) 

Last night's class

 Another busy session last night in the pyjamas :)

Stripes for Franco!

 Huge congrats to Franco, aka the Colombian Cobra on his well deserved four stripes last night at the club...he's a long serving training partner at Dog House MMA with head honcho and fellow Wimbledon BJJ student Gorgeous George...

It's taken me and George a good while to lure him onto the Dark Side of The Gi, but we succeeded and he's on the road to BJJ enlightenment...

Well done from everyone at Wimbledon BJJ :)

Last night's class

 Another busy session last night with the Monkeys, great fun had by all...roll on tomorrow!

Seminar in Nottingham!

In a little over two weeks, I'll be driving up North with my monkeys to twist up Nottingham fools at Lucci Del Gaudio's new dojo; I'll be the first guest instructor to teach a seminar there, so feel very honoured and humbled and look forward to a great day of training.

New blue belts!

 Was very happy and proud to promote two well deserving students to blue belt last night :)

Simon and Luke have both competed on a number of occasions and are always at the club, come rain or shine and are on hand to help the new starters...

Congratulations from everyone at Wimbledon BJJ, next stop purple belt!

Last night's class

 A great start to the month, getting back to training in the Gi, with a very healthy turn out, long may it continue :)

New blue belt!

 Huge congrats to Big Mo, who was finally promoted to blue belt last night; it's been a long journey for Mo, who started with me back when I was a brown belt. As usual, work and family got in the way and Mo was away for a couple of years, but he came back, knuckled down and all his hard work has paid off.

Next stop purple belt!

Four stripes for Ciara!

 Congrats from everyone at the club to Ciara, who now has four stripes on here white belt, not far off the blue belt now :)

The smile says it all!
