Old Man Jitsu

Had a great time this past weekend at Masters Worlds. If you were there, let’s see some of your pics.

Congratulations Master Meg!

Let’s take a moment to congratulate Master Megaton on becoming the 2026 Master 7, IBJJF World Master Champion! At the World Master Championships he has broke his previous record and now has set the world record at 20x gold. A legendary accomplishment years in the making. Congrats Master on such an incredible achievement.

⚠️ PARENTS: BEFORE YOU POST THAT FIRST-DAY-OF-SCHOOL PHOTO…

We all love those first-day pictures. ❤️

But those cute chalkboard signs can sometimes tell strangers A LOT about your child:

• Full name
• Age & grade
• School or teacher
• Favourite activities
• Pet’s name
• Sports or hobbies
• Other personal details

It might seem harmless, but combined with information already on your social media, those details could help a stranger sound like someone your child should know or trust.

“Hey, [name] — I know your mom. How’s your dog [name]? Aren’t you in Mrs. Smith’s class?”

Suddenly, a complete stranger doesn’t sound like a stranger.

Take the picture. Celebrate the milestone. Keep the memories. 📸

Just consider posting a version that doesn’t reveal your child’s personal information, school, routines, or locations.

We teach our children to be aware of strangers.

We also need to be aware of what we’re telling strangers about our children.

Have an amazing—and safe—school year!

We here at Next Level Fitness & Martial Arts and Gracie Humaita Jiu Jitsu Gilbert have not forgotten the sacrafice that those who serve have made to protect us. On this day we remember that freedom comes at a price and some have paid that with their lives. Thank you to all our Heroes!

Happy Monday everyone and may the 4th be with you!

Gracie Humaita meeting day 2 with Rorian and Rulker Gracie sharing their wisdom. Another great day of training with legends.

Have a Happy Easter everyone!

The world lost a great man today. Our condolences to the family.

It is with heavy hearts that our family shares the sudden passing of our beloved Chuck Norris yesterday morning. While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace. To the world, he was a martial artist, actor, and a symbol of strength. To us, he was a devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, an incredible brother, and the heart of our family. He lived his life with faith, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to the people he loved. Through his work, discipline, and kindness, he inspired millions around the world and left a lasting impact on so many lives. While our hearts are broken, we are deeply grateful for the life he lived and for the unforgettable moments we were blessed to share with him. The love and support he received from fans around the world meant so much to him, and our family is truly thankful for it. To him, you were not just fans, you were his friends. We know many of you had heard about his recent hospitalization, and we are truly grateful for the prayers and support you sent his way. As we grieve this loss, we kindly ask for privacy for our family during this time. Thank you for loving him with us. With love, The Norris Family
