While part of the team was in Atlanta competing this weekend…
C**t and Logan stepped up locally at the Good Fight tournament in Dandridge.
Different format.
Submission-only.
No easy wins.
That changes the matches.
It forces patience.
It forces persistence.
It forces you to keep working when things don’t happen quickly.
And both of them did exactly that.
Logan fought hard, like he always does.
C**t worked his way to a silver medal.
But the biggest thing wasn’t the result.
It was how they handled it.
They stayed engaged.
They kept working.
They didn’t back off when things got tough.
That’s where growth happens.
That’s what consistent training builds over time.
Proud of both of them for stepping on the mat and competing.

As parents, we all want the same things for our kids.
Confidence.
Discipline.
The ability to stand up for themselves.
But here’s the truth.
Those things are not taught by talking about them.They are built through experience.
Every time a child steps on the mat at Alliance Jiu Jitsu Knoxville, they are learning how to handle challenges, stay calm under pressure, and believe in themselves.
And the best part.
They think they are just having fun.
That is the kind of environment we have built here.I
f you have been thinking about getting your child started, this is your sign.

Most people only see the matches.
They don’t see what it takes to get there.
They don’t see the early mornings.
The days you’re tired.
The days you don’t feel like training… and show up anyway.
This week, our team is competing at the IBJJF Pan American Championships—one of the biggest stages in the world.
But the real work?
That already happened.
Day after day.
Round after round.
Choosing discipline when it would be easier not to.
That’s what builds confidence.
That’s what builds champions.
No matter what happens this week—
we’re proud of the work.
🔥Let’s go.

Most people talk about training.
Our team shows up and tests it.
This week, 6 of our athletes step onto one of the biggest stages in the world…The IBJJF Pan American Championships.
🥋Jake – Brown Belt
🥋Ed – Black Belt
🥋Tim – Blue Belt
🥋Colby – Black Belt
🥋Cody – Brown Belt
🥋Caleb – Purple Belt
Different belts.
Different paths.
Same standard.
This isn’t about medals.
It's about who you become when the pressure is real.
Win or lose…
They represent something bigger than themselves.
They represent a room full of people who choose hard things every single day.
🔥Let’s go to work.
