You did something that most people won't even try. Congratulations.
+1 Earning your blue is a great accomplishment that required a lot of sweat and hard work. You stuck with it, got beat up everyday for months and kept coming to improve. You have every right to feel a sense of accomplishment.
11th dan in Parnes Jiu-Jitsu, it's one more than Ransom's. Real PJJ goes to 11!

Yes, congrats!
As a matter of fact- I was choked out by a Gracie Bluebelt tonight! With what I think is called a "front choke" from mount.
Being a white I know it must feel awesome goin blue, now comes that long hard purple road.....
I'm proud of anybody I know in this great sport that does the hard work and mat time time to advance, thats the common bond in combat sport ya know- being proud of your brothers and sisters of the mat.
Rock on bro! :D

That is no small accomplishment. I don't know what the % is of people who take 1 class vs people that get a blue belt but it has got to be pretty low!

Tren...please rephraise this...it just reads tremendously wrong lol. But back on topic, Congrats brother! The mat in your academy is a better place because of students like you that stick to it and keep pushing their training partners to advance their games.
