Congratulations to Brazilian Jiu-jitsu coach Doug for earning his BJJ purple belt. After 5 years of dedicated training we all had the honor of seeing Doug work hard to achieve this promotion. Doug has trained in schools across the US, traveling to California to train with J.J. Machado, spending time in Austin to train at Paragon BJJ and of course always traveling to train with Black Belt Jimmy at Tim Burrills in Rhode Island. Doug has dedicated himself not only to improving his own Jiu-jitsu ( bjj ) over the last 5 years but has also consistently worked towards improving his ability to transmit that knowledge to the students who come to his class. Congratulations Doug, your half way there!j
