    Default New black belt at Combat Base UK!!!

    Received a message from Helen Currie informing members that husband Darren received his black belt from Chris Haueter on Friday at the open mat at his new club in San Pedro, CA

    An awesome achievement and IIANM this is the first husband and wife black belt duo in the UK and perhaps further afield as well.

    On behalf of myself and Combat Base UK members a HUGE well done to Darren, not before time, a major achievement for Darren and another step forward for UK BJJ.

    Well done, great achievement.

    There is definately "something" about attaining a BB in BJJ, perhaps more than any other art ? One day, I may be tempted along that path......
    if you think its easy stop now

    no one achieved anything by doing nothing

    never argue with a fool

    if fighting is a pursuit rooted in pain, you will find the best teachers have often absorbed the most punishment themselves......and remained standing
