On December 22 we finished off 2010 with an in-house Gi Tournament. Competitors were divided into two different categories: above 185 and below 185. Each competitor had at least two matches and awards were given accordingly. Although the competition was against people we train with on a regular basis, the atmosphere was a little more intense than a usual practice. It was also a great opportunity for students to introduce family and friends to Cia Paulista Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and show off the skills they had developed from their rigorous training. As an instructor, I was very impressed to see each student's progress and how each individual has internalized Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and made it their own! Congratulations to all the competitors!
At the end of the competition, several individuals were recognized and earned their belt promotion. Afterwards, we all met up for ice cream at ColdStone Creamery in the El Dorado Hills Town Center to share a little time together off the mat. Merry Christmas everyone!
