BJJ Grading & BBQ – September…
We are holding our first ever BlueWave BJJ grading session! This is not like a traditional martial arts grading where students will test for specific belts, it’s a large get-together of students from several branches of Carlson Gracie BJJ Team. There wil be some technique tought followed by friendly competition matches from some students before new belts and stripes may be awarded. Following this we will all be attending a BQQ held in Ipswich, to which all students are invited.
The grading will be held on Saturday September 10th in Bury St Edmunds. (Time TBC) – There is normaly no cost for gradings though as there are some small expenses to cover we are requesting that all students contribute £10 towards the session.

Lee Doski Wins Main Event at BCFA…
BlueWave MMA Coach Lee Doski chalked up another in the main event at BCFA in Ipswich.
Lee defeated Trevor Soko by arm bar early in the first round. Grabbing a quick takedown against the cage, Lee passed the half guard and moved to mount where he quickly transitioned to an s-mount and latched on a very tight submission, causing his opponent to tap out.
