Today I got a question from someone who has been doing Japanese Jiu-Jitsu for 15 years, holds an instructor rank, and teaches that a bit. He has also been doing BJJ for well over a year.

He says he’s been in the BJJ gym for about 18 months and can hold his own against white belts, blue belts, and even stay alive against purple belts. He’s even placed at Blue Belt tournaments in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

His worry is that he has received no stripes on his white belt, even though he’s seen all the success listed above.

He wonders what I think and how he should talk to his BJJ coach about the subject of stripe and/or belt promotions.

If you’re having a similar situation, then I hope the video is helpful to you!

The post How to Ask Your BJJ Coach for a Belt Promotion Without Asking Them appeared first on jitseasy.

Today’s video is a quick video about how BJJ Black Belts get their stripes and promotions.

So in the video I share the basics of how I’ve been promoted and how the common stripe/belt promotion practice takes place for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black Belts. Now, I’m sure some systems could be different than the one I outline here. But this is the basic time requirements I’m familiar with and have been exposed to in my training.

Here’s a blog post with the chart that I was going off of: https://www.chewjitsu.net/2021/05/how-do-bjj-black-belts-get-their-stripes-promotions/

In the video I also share how old I’ll be when I can get the Red/Black and the final Red Belt of Jiu-jitsu. Since I was promoted to Black Belt when I was 26, I’ll be eligible for the final rank of BJJ when I am 89 years old.

. . . Let’s see if I even make that.

Anyways, hope the video was useful to you or at the very least maybe slightly entertaining based on how old I’ll be to get a Red Belt.

-Chewy

Just a simple thought on my way to the gym on a Friday morning.

I love the interaction that the Chewjitsu channel has. But I dislike people being negative towards others and their particular problems.

If you have the urge to talk negatively about someone else’s problems. I urge you to stop for just a moment and look inward to see what kind of problems you have.

Spewing negativity is a poison that inflicts both parties.

Outwardly expressing positivity is a medicine that helps both parties.

Life can be a miserable endeavor or an awesome one. It can be full of problems and difficulties or beautiful adventures. The choice is yours.

Be someone who helps build up others rather than tear people down.
