A BJJ instructor at One world Jiu-Jitsu in Sugar Grove, Illinois has just promoted himself to brown belt.
He trained traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu for many years and started BJJ in 2011, under a few BJJ black belts. He left his old academy and started his own BJJ academy in 2016. He promoted himself to brown belt.
He refers to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as the Brazilian priesthood:
“The Brazilian priesthood is dead no more will another man be allowed to determine my rank in life or in jiu jitsu. All of the psychopathic hierarchies need to be destroyed. And it’s not Brazilian and it’s not Gracie it’s just jiujitsu. It belongs to all of the people of the world. We don’t hang pictures of idols on the walls at One World jiu jitsu. We develop the self not our wallets. That is what a true martial artist does.”
