Another Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Blue Belt

Hey Gang,

We had a great class this evening, Josh Valentin is back from his two month training to become a Police Officer, an endeavor, I greatly appreciate. He brought one of the other new Police Officer's with him, so let's welcome Carl onboard and hope that he joins. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Jessica Clanton on her advancement to Blue Belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu under Ryron and Rener Gracie of the World Famous Gracie Academy in Torrence, California. She is the 100th Gracie Blue Belt outside of a Certified Training Center and the 2nd woman who has earned her Gracie Blue Belt outside of a Certified Training Center. I can't tell you how proud that I am.
It is hard enough to earn a Black Belt in any Martial Art, (easy if it's a McDojo), but Jessica, Pete, Danny, Josh and Ty are all going for multiple belts in Black Dragon San-Shou Jiu-Jitsu, Kodokan Judo and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. They are really pushing themselves and it shows in how adept they are getting in those styles.
We are set for a Seminar in July putting on a training session for the Carroll County Sheriff's Department. The training is called "Ground Survival for the Law Enforcement Officer". I am greatful to have Pete, Danny, Jessica, Tony, and Josh help in teaching this course to about 20-30 Officer's. I see great things in our future.

Keep up the great work, Peace, and let's keep rollin'.................
