Team Lloyd Irvin has some new color on its mats.  Tracey Goodell after winning her Pan Ams division and the Open division and then winning the Brazilian Nationals as a Blue Belt she was promoted to the rank of Blue Belt only 2 weeks before the 2010 World Championships.  2 weeks later she had 9 matches and 8 submission victories winning her weight division and the Open Division.  Tonight less than 30 days from being promoted to Purple Belt Master Lloyd Passes Tracey to the rank of Brown Belt.

Traceys new brown belt

Frank Camacho who switched his focus from MMA to concentrate on BJJ has a ROCK SOLID years besides injuries winning almost everything that he entered into as a BJJ Blue Belt.  Frank entered the middle weight blue belt division of the 2010 World Championship looking to close the division out.  Well they did and found themselves fighting for the title of 2010 WORLD CHAMPION!

In the end Frank would win this blue belt battle and be able to call himself the 2010 Blue Belt BJJ World Champion.  Tonight Frank was promoted to the rank of purple belt

Frank Gets The Purple belt

Last but not least DJ Jackson who is the 2010 BJJ World Championships Silver Medalist and in the last 12 months practically won every blue belt division that he entered and always making it to the finals of the Open Division only to lose to his team mate Willie Leonard.  DJ also got the Bronze at the 2010 Worlds in the Open Division.

Tonight DJ passes to the rank of purple belt to go out and gain experience at this level.

The World Famous Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Mendes Brothers were on hand to join in the promotional festivities with Team Lloyd irvin along with Machado Black Belt Alvis Solis

Never before has an American team secured this many Gold medals at the BJJ World Championships before.  After being named the best Grappling Team of the Decade, Team Lloyd Irvin shows why we are the best American BJJ Team on the Worlds biggest stage.  When asked about his success at the Worlds Lloyd had this to say

This is all a result of a lot of hard work, planning, dedication and our students belief in our systems and processes. Most importantly it comes down to the T.E.A.M philosophy that we’ve instilled into our guys.  T.ogether E.veryone A.chieves M.ore, without your team you are nothing! Also we have a bunch of ‘highly’ dedicated coaches that all work towards our goals that we’ve set for the team. This is just the beginning for us, the systems and processes are set, now with these results more people will believe and we will become even stronger!Lloyd Irvin

On May 18th, 2010 I was promoted to the rank of purple belt by Master Lloyd Irvin.  It is a great feeling to be one step closer to my goal, which is achieving my BJJ Black Belt, competing against the best, and becoming the best.

When I heard Master Lloyd call my name and told me front and center, my mind was blank, I was shocked and didn’t believe what was going on.  I stood there baffled as he walked on the mat with a my purple belt around his neck.  Not to mention all that was going through my mind was the whippings that I was about to get.  It’s tradition to do the paddy wagon, and I was not excited for that part at all, and the class was HUGE!

I was overwhelmed with joy, holding back tears….I am proud of myself.  I came to Maryland for one thing, and one thing only.  I was fortunate to visit during Christmas time in 2008, also during team training.  At that point in my jiu-jitsu career, I was injured but that didn’t stop me.  I saw the training, the lifestyle and that’s exactly what I wanted, Jiu-Jitsu by day, Jiu-Jitsu by night.  I sat down with Master Lloyd and we discussed what my goals were, and what I wanted to do with my career.  And for those of you who know him, he can be a very intimidating person, boy was I nervous.

Through all the trials, tribulations, and struggles that I have been through during the past 18 months, it was and is all worth it.  Moving here was the best decision I have made.  With that being said, I want to Thank everyone who has helped me get to where I am at today.  My journey continues, and I am following my path to make my dreams come true.

Team Lloyd Irvin continues to set records and shock the World.  Who would’ve thought that in PG County Maryland Brazilian Jiu Jitsu would be rising to such a high level.

No other American Team has ever won as many medals at the Brazilian Nationals as Team Lloyd Irvin did this year.  JT Torres was on fire submitting his first

4 opponents.  Three submissions were with his trademarked Back bow and arrow choke(<Click Here> To Get A FREE DVD Showing You His Back Taking Secrets) and one match ended in a toe hold submission.

In the finals he battled Team Atos fighter Gilbert Burns losing by 2 advantages.

Here is JT getting his Silver Medal

JT also got one of his biggest wins of his young black belt journey when he met World Champion Lucas Lepri (Allicance) in a match that would decide who would go into the medal rounds.  Lucas had defeated JT twice in no gi winning 2-0 both times and had defeated JT recently 5-2 at pan ams.  We’ve been studying film, working on strategies and JT was really geared up for this match. There was so much talk about these guys fighting, people saying that JT would never be able to beat guys at that level for years to come etc.

We trained so hard for this match and everything seemed to work out just as planned.  JT’s level of play is improving at such a drastic rate it’s scary.  There is ‘MAGIC’ happening on the floors in “camp springs maryland” right now. The process, the work, the attitudes, the ‘no excuses’ mindset is just all over!  It’s a great time to be involved in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Maryland, DC and Virginia

Watch the JT “Spiderman” Torres vs Lucas Lepri match below.  We have more videos to come
