Note: We decided to keep it for white and blue belts only for this inaugural event. We had an overwhelming response and we want to run a good event by keeping the numbers of participants to 30 only. First 30 that pay are in. Then it is close until the next event.

As there is currently no events for older competitors to compete against each other, we have decided to host a masters competition for White and Blue belts.

As we are running this event for the first time we are limiting the number of competitors across all divisions to 30, this is to ensure that the event runs in time.

Weight divisions will be decided on the day (refunds will be offered if there are no other competitors within 10kg in your belt and age division). The draws will be arranged so that ALL competitors will have at least 2 matches by using the repechage system.

Our dojo has the best mats in Auckland for a masters competition, as we have Judo mats on a sprung floor. For safety reasons we will only run one match at a time and the event should only take a maximum of 3 hours to run. Refereeing to IBJJF rules will be by Serge or Stuart or another suitably qualified volunteer.

Our goal is to organise an event for our old boys that want to have a friendly matches with people of the same age.

So get in quick and guarantee your place in this fun event.

Stu & Serge.

Linjian Chan Graduation

  Dear members of the Auckland BJJ community, Today, we gather to celebrate the remarkable achievements of one of our own, Linjian Chen, who has earned his black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Linjian's journey has been unique and inspiring, starting in his 50s and culminating with this incredible achievement. As we honor Linjian's dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment to his training, I am reminded of a quote by Bruce Lee, who said, "Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do." Linjian embodies this spirit of action and determination, always pushing himself to be better and never giving up on his goals. Another great quote that comes to mind is by Ralph Waldo Emerson, who said, "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." Linjian's journey to this point has been long and challenging, but he has always shown that he has what it takes to succeed. His strength, d...

Antonio Claudio Collares “Tonicão” Jiu Jitsu

I try to not copy other people's articles.  However I made an exception on this one because it is near impossible finding out interview of the master translated in English. Tonicao means big Toni (just in case you wondered). Tonicao gave the black belt to Douglas Santos. Therefore Tonicao is part of our lineage. I got the info from http://klbjj.blogspot.co.nz/2008/06/interview-with-tonicao.html Interview with Tonicao I translated from Portuguese to English and made some corrections. INTERVIEW WITH TONICÃO The first developer of Jiu - Jitsu in Santa Catarina, this black belt (almost red and black) of 54 years well lived, 30 of them devoted to the Jiu - Jitsu , is definitely a person with a lot of histories . An extremely "good people", that captivates people in 10 minutes of conversation, no exception to the questions and plays with death. Enjoy the result of this pleasant conversation with the "Master Tonicão " which lasted an...
