If I don’t have a 10th planet gym near me, how do I get promoted?
Where are you located? The best way is to travel to seminars and to the nearest moon and start training in the system with someone. Almost everyone in the U.S. now has a moon in somewhat reasonable travel distance that lets them train at a moon even if it's only on a monthly basis.
If you are the same Tyler Holmes from TMA in Oklahoma that pops up in a google search and fought MMA earlier this year, you have a moon right in Altus, OK as well as some up in Missouri. So, they have you covered!
Gonna have to travel and develop a relationship with the nearest moon to you if you want to get ranked.
What is a moon? I'm from Miami where we don't have a 10 planet. also do you think you might have a 10th planet school in south Florida in the future?
I am with you man. I got to go up to 4-5 hours for the closet one for me. I have made many trip to 10patx. By the way love that place. I do my best to make it there 2 times a year. My closet would be 10P little elm Dallas. I have not made the trip there. To hell with driving in Dallas.
I support 10patx any time I hit a tournament with rash guard and shorts. I always on MTS and the warm ups.
Any advice is amazing on getting help in rank would be amazing.
I know the struggle. I live in Denmark, so there is quite a long travel distance to the nearest moon. If the distance is too far, then i guess you should not worry about belts, rather just focusing on learning; a rank does not make anyone better.
10pATX rocks! What part of Texas do you live in, bro?Quote:

Any jiu jitsu is better than no jiu jitsu. Wear the gi if need be. It will benefit you. Otherwise, organize vacations around training and hit up a 10p gym as regularly as possibleQuote:

Seems to me you don’t REALLY want it. We 45 minutes north of Dallas, and my son Jacob is a 10p purple. I work full time & still found time to take him to from Cali, to Missouri. Austin , to Nebraska to train with 10p moons. Repping the system in competion to the fullest can only further you quest for rank. But rank should never be a goal. And asking for rank will only post pone any chances for 10p rankQuote:

I would just hate to drive all that way and no one be there. I have also talked to Alex Skold to come up and train with me also.Quote:

There are no longer any hot boxes but Gabe Porter is correct, 10th Planet Miami coming soon.
Following the Rank system. One of my old teammates is running a 10th Planet gym New Caney. "Lonnie" I had my blue when he received his 3 stripe or Green belt where we was at. he has now made it to purple. Congratz for him glad he found path. I was a rubber player at old gym figuring out myself, the coach we had did not show that game. ANyways point of my question. Will my blue be honored here and if so should I just shoot for the purple goals instead of Blue ranking? I have never stopped training and have been teaching in garage gym since Nov 2013.
How should I go about my path? See profile for MMA history. Would go train with Lonnie but hard for me to get to his gym in time. So going this route. Blue since Dec 2012. :(
To be clear I am not asking for rank, I am asking how to prove my rank going forward from where I am at. It will not mean anything to me as a hand out.
I go to 10thPATX every other week or as much as I can and thats a 3 1/2 hour drive but gotta do what I gotta do to do.10P4L!!
Denver is a beautiful city, come visit and train with my squad. Do it a couple times a year, show a knowledge of the system, and two years from now you just might have a blue belt. ;-)
I am asking if my Blue (given from Team Tooke)is honored (Also honored by Chris Brennan) and do I shoot for the goals Eddie has written here for Purple. I am not worried about a belt color for myself. I have about 6 blue and purple belts already Since '83. The most important accept to me is knowledge. The belt is for other people not myself. Please see profile might make more sense. Just wish I found JJ back then instead of doing all the other systems.
Don't get me wrong either. It feels good to anyone when promoted. I could have no belt and still be happy just learning and building.
I believe that Eddie's rule by exception is that he honors all belts to cross over up to brown. If you are going to a specific 10th Planet affiliate then it would be at their discretion.
Thanks
2nd part I was asking, I know I read some where can't find now. Something about a way to rank on here.
was like show clips of all
the guard moves you know,
Rubber """
Mount """
SIde """
etc"""
Blue 10 wins with 10th Planet gear on in comp.
Purple 30
etc something like that.
Did not know how to mark thread or post at time and can't find.
Was this taken out?
Of course other options was there too, Seminars, Go to a Moon at least once a month and let cert instructor see you
Asking because during sign up say can be rank by Eddie, took a little but found that post and believe it was by him.
Site has a lot to it, should make a video guide to show people how to use page better.
Or a quick link section. Like the Tech chart in that one form, should have a quick link
This one " https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...pZQ/pub?gid=27 " <-- 10th Planet Technique Guide. Or the 10th planet warnmps link for PC....etc
I'm pretty sure that there is no longer the option to get ranked by video. With over 100 affiliates worldwide now it is expected to travel to your closest moon as much as possible if you want to get ranked in the association.
OK thanks brother. Only was worried about being called out for sandbagging. But the Barn Cat and I working out deal for privates 1-2 times a month, for my son and I to come in and see him. Thanks for response.Quote:

Herzog is correctQuote:

I go back to the original Jiu Jitsu Unleashed book release as a fan trying to learn, hit seminars, etc and the Head Jiu Jitsu Coach here goes out to Cali frequently to get updates from Richie and recently got his Brown Belt from him. We have an open door and are always looking to support Jiu Jitsu and especially our extended 10th Planet familia! Hope to see you someday here or at one of the moons! :)
