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

GO TEAM LLOYD IRVIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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
