I had been training in Japanese Jiu Jitsu since 1984 - started self training BJJ with a couple of training partners from TJJ. Got awarded my Blue belt from Royce at a seminar we held in 2001 - Started again with Colin Howells at White belt in 2011 - Had to move teams in 2016 as Winchester BJJ closed down. Went to Alton BJJ with Brian Livie under Andy Roberts who I had the pleasure of meeting when he was a Purple belt up in Sheffield. Have stayed with the Team ever since.

 | Hi John. Recently you were kind enough to vote to verify my black belt rank but having updated an error in my promotion history I have lost my votes and have to start verification again. If you have a spare moment would you mind reviewing again. Thx. 3 year(s) ago |
 | Hi John, hope you’re well mate. Would you mind verifying my new rank if you get a minute. Thanks, Aaron 2 year(s) ago |
