A Responsible Dad posted:Gracie Challenge from Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Fort Collins to Infinite Martial Arts Academy. We challenge anyone 135 and under to a 20 min sub only match at Gracie Fort Collins. Male or Female any rank. It would seem as martial artists we would treat each other with respect however Adam Martinez of Infinite Martial Arts is extremely threatened by our Academy and has been making an attempt to cyber bully our school calling into question our skill and teaching ability. This is not Adams first offense at spreading untruths about our academy. So here is what we propose. You can have as many matches as you want with one of our 17 year old instructors who is currently a two stripe blue belt. We will video and post all matches.This will put to rest the question of our skill and may very well bring into question your skill. As to our teaching ability we will post a video of a class for every class you put up and we will let the public vote on teaching ability and knowledge.

Why are blue belts running an academy anyway? The lowest-ranked instructor I've ever had was a purple. I can't imagine letting blue belts run a class unless it was like grappling for toddlers or something.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:Why are blue belts running an academy anyway? I don't think many people see a huge problem with a blue belt teaching a white belt class, especially with the Gracie Academy limited curriculum. I guess they teach the advanced classes as well, but I'd imagine they're just parroting what they see on Gracie Academy's instructional videos from their online courses. I guess they took the school over from the previous head instructor after he went to prison for molesting kids. Keg fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Oct 26, 2015 |

The way my coaches taught it to us, a promotion to blue is more a recognition that you've put in hard work and are better than a typical white belt, but that they wouldn't consider you to have the depth of understanding to convey technique to others correctly until at least purple. Maybe they're just more strict than others though. My understanding was basically "blue==you put in more work than a casual gymgoer, we don't want you beating up lily whitebelts in competitions anymore" and "purple==you are very dedicated to jiu-jitsu and have started to attain a deep understanding of how this poo poo works".

Having a 17 year old blue belt run an adult BJJ class is stupid for a lot of reasons, but their confidence in posting that challenge really makes me wonder what theyre actually up to, how on earth could they be that confident to propose something like that online and offer to video tape it. Whats their "long con" there because they would for sure get crushed by whatever rear end in a top hat guy shows up

Och I know all about Gracie University. I have my issues with it but I wouldn't regard it as sleazy. I mean I'm probably not on their side of the argument but I don't have that big an issue with their practices, to the extent that I'd regard them as sleazy & they seem like very cool guys. Having said that, given I'm a Gracie Barra guy, I reckon they should be thrown into an industrial thresher & never mentioned again.

The girls aren't blue belts, they are 'online' blue belts through Gracie University, so they're probably more like middling white belts.

I dont know man, from what ive experienced of the internet BJJ community I think there would be people willing to do it and that if someone did, a decent number of people would praise them for calling out McDojo Bullshit or whatever and keeping BJJ pure

The type of person who would be like " come down to my dojo to settle this". They ran " throwdowns" which were open invitations for anyone to come down to their dojo to settle things. Not a lot of self awareness going on with that bunch, as you can guess. One time fatherdog showed up and teabagged the guy while kimuraing him. The end, no moral.

One reason to attend a throwdown is to hang out with your friends from the martial arts drama forum. Another reason is to punch an old man in the mouth.

Phrost and I have rolled before but at no point was there any animosity involved. Bullshido performs a useful service in ferreting out scams in the martial arts community but of course like any other martial arts website it attracts more than it's share of weirdos. Because I was a bit of a dipshit when I was younger I have indeed travelled to beat up kung fu practitioners who claimed that grappling was useless in the face of their dim mak technique, but most of them abruptly found something better to do when I gave them a waiver to sign. I don't believe I ever teabagged Phrost or anybody else, but at one point I did take someone's back and sing the entirety of "Never Gonna Give You Up" before choking them, because I couldn't resist the pun opportunity.
