Last week, Denny promoted one of the school’s most diligent students, Alan “Chong Li” Chang. Alan was new to jiu jitsu when he started training in 2008, and he’s made impressive gains since then. He had this today about getting his blue:
“I started jiu jitsu in search of a few tricks for self-defense. I ended up being introduced to a comprehensive system of ground fighting, good friends, and a great new way to stay in shape. Getting my blue belt from Denny helped confirm that I’ve made some progress since I first started training. But, if anything, it just motivates me to keep hitting the mat and improving a little bit each day. I still have a long ways to go, but I know it’ll be a good time.”
Keep up the good work, Alan!
