    Teaching 10th planet to Black Belts?

    Im sure many of our brothers have seen our gradual climb from almost nothing to an awesome Hot Box it still feels surreal to me and im sure my team mates as well agree.Well we just seem to be spreading like the Spanish Flu infecting so many people that we now have 3 Black Belts and a Brown Belt that taps out the Black Belts coming specifically to our 10th planet classes and just whooping our ass, but whats really cool is there so interested and into 10th planet even though there already extremely High Level .

    Whats even funnier is the feeling we sometimes get from explaining 10th planet to such High Level guys when its normally the other way around. This is gonna up all of our game so much its gonna be insane since once we teach them the moves they already master it and even use it on us as if theyve already been using 10th planet forever.

    I wanted to ask has anybody have this happen where black belts were asking and started to train in 10 planet with a school or hotbox?

    I think there's been quite a few brown belts that have come to HQ to learn the system and George Sotiropoulos was a black belt when he started training with Eddie, I believe.

    Gotta give a shout out to Tyler for doing a really excellent job instructing class yesterday! He demonstrated the paths like a pro, with great detail and perfect technique. Afterwards the black belts were all saying "damn that kid is awesome!".

    You too Angel, when you were showing them the rubber guard path you taught it very well, they picked it up quickly and you could see how impressed they were with you and the system. It's not everyday that white belts teach black belts. Pretty incredible.

    I have experienced this with 5 Black belts so far and two Brown Belts. Jiu Jitsu is great I am actually starting to teach different TMA Black Belts as well. Love sharing the "Knawledge"!!!

    Yea its so awesome to know these guys are very open minded and actually excited to learn 10th planet even if it is from us white belts but to me that makes them that much cooler when they could easily have been like other 10th planet haters and look down on us but thats not the case. In fact this one guy gabriel I didnt even know was a black belt becuase he asked alot of questions and all with a huge smile on his face as if he just started that day but low and behold his game was sick and than I find out he's a black belt.

    I think also whats awesome is after class they would show us traditional BJJ and how they would incorporate 10th planet into it which helps a ton since we get to learn both 10th planet and high level JJ or how they would tweak certain 10th planet moves to better fit them or their game, and I dont wanna spread rumors but...I overheard them talking about how they should all get together and open a much bigger school since its getting crowded, of course it was just talk but if it all works out theres no stopping us from becoming a moon!!

    Its mind blowing how things are coming along down here! I never thought I would hear black belts saying they thought we were high ranks because of how technical we are and how well we teach.

    It was so cool to see a full class with 3 black belts, a brown belt, and two blue belts learning from us! Only on the 10th Planet can white belts teach black belts lol.
