I'm pretty sure there aren't any black belts in Nova Scotia. Peter Martell at Titans is a brown under Renzo. I think Rowan Cunningham at Abhaya is also a brown.

There are a few purples that I know of. The most notable being TJ Grant (FitPlus,) Jake MacKenzie and Chris Hughes (both teach in Truro.)

Yea Rowan is a brown belt under Joslin. I thought Gurgel had a prodigy at Fitplus?

 

[bjjmedic]

Rodrigo Munduruca in Winnipeg.
Kyle (I can't remember his last name) in Sherwood Park Alberta.

Jeff Wiley in Regina, Sask. I think their might be one another in Regina aswell.

Jeff Wiley, and Joe Bossenberry only 2 in saskatchewan they both train at the same club in Regina.

Jeff I believe got his BB from Professor Rogerio Poggio.
