Seminar & Belt Promotion
BJJ Gort is proud to welcome our affiliates, Professors Marc and Kelly of Symmetry Jiu-Jitsu, for a seminar and belt promotion on Saturday, May 23rd, 2026. Both Marc and Kelly are 3rd-degree black belts under Charles Gracie, co-founders of the Adaptive Integrative Methodology (AIM) Approach, and long-time academy owners, with over 20 years of experience in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and decades dedicated to coaching, competition, athlete development, and building successful academies.
The day will begin with a seminar, followed by an open Q&A session, and will conclude with belt promotions recognising the hard work and progress of our students. The Q&A is a valuable opportunity for students, parents, coaches, and academy owners to gain real insight from experienced coaches and ask practical questions about building and running successful BJJ programmes, coaching, and more!
