How many bJJ black belts in canada

[No Quarter]

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.)

I beleive that Shane Rice from Halifax recently received his black belt under Rickson Gracie.

Pat Cooligan is a black belt under Renzo Gracie.

I beleive that Shane Rice from Halifax recently received his black belt under Rickson Gracie.

That's an incredible accomplishment, but I don't think he lives in Halifax anymore. I wish he did, for obvious reasons.

Kareem El Sayed, Blackbelt under Wagnney Fabiano and head instructor at TorontoBJJ. Rob Di Censo, also Blackbelt under Wagnney, placed 4 th in ADCC in 2005, Grappler's Quest finalist and winner not too long ago as well.

Can't believe they haven't even been mentioned yet.

[HEAVY GRAPPLER]

I just found out Titans has two more brown belts for a total of three. My apologies.

Pat Bazinet is blue... right now.

If he was purple, it'd take him 15 seconds to tap me out as opposed to the 20 it takes now...
