We just completed our 2nd White Belt competition team tryouts.  The tryouts began at 10pm and ended just a little bit before 1pm.  We had four ladies make the first phase of the tryouts!  Our all ladies brazilian jiu jitsu program is growing like crazy!  We now have seven white belt ladies going through our white belt competition team phases, not including all of the ladies in the kids program that compete in the adult divisions.   We look forward to seeing everyone progress, and look forward to see who makes it to become a official member of our white belt competition team.
