Typically, it takes anywhere from 8 to 15 years to attain the rank of Black Belt in Jiu-Jitsu. Each belt (with the exception of Blue) takes about 2-5 years of dedicated practice; Blue Belt can often be attained in about a year of dedicated study.
Legion Jiu Jitsu / CheckMat Nashville is an excellent place to train for anyone looking to learn self defense and fundamentals as well as those interested in high level competition. First-rate instruction and the community is friendly, respectful, and supportive. Head professor Sean is an outstanding teacher and provides positive instruction for everyone, regardless of prior experience. All of the other professors and coaches are amazing as well. Membership allows you to train at their other locations and they have options for different class times throughout the day. Strongly recommend to anyone interested in learning BJJ or stopping by for a visit!
Dropped in for the BJJ Basics class while on a trip. Class was great: excellent coach, great team, and quality instruction. If I lived in Nashville I’d be a member.
I attended my first class at Legion Jiu Jitsu Nashville today and had a great time. The professor, as well as the students were very welcoming. Overall it has a great vibe. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a gym to train!
