Do You Have to Compete to be a Legit Black Belt ?

Do you have to compete to be a legit Black Belt or any belt for that matter?

That's the question we received from our friend Eric who isn't really interested in BJJ tournaments. He's competed in a BJJ competition back 5 years ago but didn't really enjoy it.

In this video I talk about the idea of having to compete to be a legitimate Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black Belt.

I also touch on the idea of why Brazilian Jiujitsu is such a big deal in the community. I discuss a couple of reasons as to why I think BJJ matches and competitions are such a focus in grappling.

In the end though, you don' necessarily need to be a competitor to be a legit Black Belt.

But in the case of this video for Eric who is eventually wanting to be a BJJ Black Belt. I think that competing can be a good way for him to build himself up.

This way he can be able to provide more information to his students if he is to teach as a higher belt.

Hope the video is helpful! Thanks for watching.
