Over the next century, numerous styles adopted the belt rank system but the only commonality was the belt systems meant what the creator decided
One of the things that always impressed me about the Gracies is how they were able to turn out generation after generation of top-notch instructors.

Hvorfor tradisjonelle martial artister fortsetter å forakte lærdom av mixed martial arts? Jeg er overrasket at tjue år etter Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) 1, some traditional martial arts still feel that they have nothing to learn from MMA.
