Bellingham BJJ

So proud of the whole team today! Whatever the results, everybody displayed great jiujitsu — and the results were impressive. LJ won 🥇 🥇 in gi and nogi, and also took 🥈 in nogi absolute. Herbert earned 🥇 in gi and 🥈 nogi, and Griffin took one 🥈 and one 🥉— and by the way, this was Griffin’s first tournament and blue belt and LJ’s first competition at purple belt. Riley performed well in his two matches, fighting up in weight and belt level, and Michal made his return to the competition mats as well. Huge congratulations to everyone who competed — it always yields valuable insights for improvement — and huge thanks to Tony, Pat and Kelsey for coaching. It’s gratifying for all the instructors to see everyone improve, and watching folks’ hard work pay off on the mats fills everyone with pride.
