Haha, at least the guy has ditched it and signed up as a white belt. He did say he cheated his way to a blue belt, so he hasn't lied really, has he, as he let us know
so my guess is... This guy is a legit gracie mail order blue belt.. And he isnt happy that ashley insulted the integrity of gracie mail order blue belts..
that would be sweet... ordering a hot brazillian women.. that loves rolling around with guys.. and stuff...
and best of all, every order would include one of these: http://www.gracieacademy.com/storeitem.asp?r=74902
haha he came in and saw me at my store having a go at me about this .... i have done my video e.t.c outside of his "gracie shed" and didn't complete my blue belt through Brad Hope Academy. I filmed my grading and mailed it myself.
Also Mr Hope claimed i bad mouthed his school which i never have i still pertain to the fact right now they are great people and fun environment to learn from... i mereley questioned the legitamacy of a kellogs cereal box blue belt and the gracie combatives system....
p.s seeing as your so content on airing financial facts publicly mr hope how come your charging people $50 a week to train at your academy and haven't even registered us as white belts? According to the Gracie Univeristy (your personal IBJJF i guess) i don't exsit as a student but you've openly admitted on here i trained combatives with you?...and you've taken my money but haven't done the honourable thing yourself by registering me?
the tenth planet forum is not where to discuss this matter it actually comes across very immature and unprofressional the way you have... we have spoke in person and exchanged e-mails... but after seeing this i am truly dissapointed in you
and like i said in the e-mail 36 moves isn't enough when versing a legitimate blue belt in jiu jitsu!

I question your personal ethics myself but if that guy is really charging you should report him he is running an official Gracie garage(I looked him up on their site) and is not suppose to be profiting in any way. https://www.gracieuniversity.com/LC/...TGT7X&n=28&t=0
there is a button on the right hand side that says "report malpractice"
