If you're asking in terms of "how do I get ranked for 10th Planet if I don't have a school near me" then this is what I have from the notes I did save (not sure how recent it is, there was a thread where Aaron (forget last name) had posted it too. The only other options is to make the road trips to train with the nearest Moonhead and it's to their discretion when to rank you.
• 10 Videos - competition wins with a 10th Planet patch, posted on your 10th Planet profile (you can have other school patches too).
• Plus 5, 10th Planet technique videos.
- 1 of all the half guard u know
- 1 of all the rg u know
- 1 of all the twister u know
- 1 of all the deep hook transitions u know
- 1 of all the passes u know
all unedited in one swoop.
• You gotta show me how much you know without looking at notes. Then you get a promotion, blue, purple or brown.
• Every promotion no matter what color will require the same 15 videos. Naturally the 5 technique videos will be critiqued a lot harder for a purple than a blue, or for a brown than a purple.
10th Planet head instructors that are non-black belts can only rank their students to blue. All Nibiru warriors, enrolled in official 10th Planet schools run by non-black belts, who want to get their purple or brown must be first recommended by their instructor and then submit 5 technique videos to this site. 1 of all the half guard u know, 1 of all the rg u know, 1 of all the twister u know, 1 of all the deep hook transitions u know, and 1 of all the passes u know, all unedited in one swoop. You gotta show me how much you know without looking at notes.
If anyone else has any recent updates on the above (Coach Herzog, Eddie....) please chime in.
Since you live in London. Go Here: http://www.10thplanetjj.com/locations/london/
You're best bet is to get graded through a moon close to you or travel to HQ and get it from Eddie that way
Thank you so much thats helped a lot!!!
I think its best to establish a relationship with the instructor before you worry about grading. Now if you live in London and he lives in LA, that can be difficult. However, you can build some sort of awareness of who you are through this forum. But introducing yourself to the instructor by asking "how can I get promoted?" may not be the best approach. Its like starting a new job and asking, "When does my vacation start?" on your first day.
Go to 10th Planet London, train your ass off. When Jamie feels you are ready he will promote you. The option Herb is talking about is for those that do not have a10th Planet affiliate in their area and wouldn't apply to you.
I've been grappling for a while dude and yeah im just wondering how its done online because when i was registering it said gradings online and i thought hm how does that work so yeah im in no rush mate
Eddie also says, "Any jiu jitsu is better thatn no jiu jitsu". 10th planet respects the ranks of other brazilian jiu jitsu schools, with the exception of black belt. You can always rank up elsewhere.
I'm of the theory that if you keep showing up to class, keep improving, buying in to what the instructor is saying etc, you'll get ranked. Simple as that. Consistency. At the end of the day, if one is serious about getting a 10p black belt, an ordinate amount of time would eventually need to be invested at an actual moon to be on the 10p radar. This is my logical inference based on what makes the most sense in the long run.
I know how you get given your stripes and belts im not that stupid lol, my question is as you can see online i dont get why people cant seem to read the thread i posted grading through the 'website' i received a blue belt 2 years ago, i've received belts from youth in taekwondo and karate where we would grade learn certain dumb katas and tae goks, i know you get stripes from competing winning competitions always being at class but what im saying is how is it done on the internet, cos when i checked i couldnt see no 10th planet schools near me theres one in london i found out later from friends on here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG_rZPAvuUw << this was when i was 16 now im 18, competition at roger gracies academy dont want peiople to think im tryna jump belts its just that i found it cool that you get promoted online and wondered how
Not really something to worry about beyond curiosity. As Zog said that isn't an option for you.
Guys that I've seen get promoted online IE Nathan Orchard for his blue belt. Orchard was CRUSHING in competition and obviously deserved it. He repped as a white belt with no expectation of getting promoted.
I have yet to see someone post videos of them doing the techniques and get promoted. Maybe I missed it though.
That is a seriously inspiring story… I hadn't heard about thatQuote:

Aydin, no one is attacking you and everyone has been polite to you. You are completely over reacting, chill out or you wont last long here.
Like I all ready explained, you are ineligible to do a online promotion since there is a 10th Planet school in your area.
Why would anyone even want to receive a 10p belt when they're not affiliated with 10p in the first place?
That's like wanting to get a Gracie blue belt online, without ever having trained under a Gracie gym or affiliate.
Oh wait.........
Have some posts been deleted on this thread? I'm sure I was reading something on here this morning?
I left it pretty general but it was really cool to watch his progress through the ranks after getting that initial blue belt.Quote:

I know what you are saying about the online possibility to be ranked because I initially saw it when I joined, but I would listen to Herzog that you only can get promoted within the system online if you didn't live near a 10P school. As for the distance, two hours isn't that bad and it's not great either, trust me I know but it's doable. I travel once a week 45 minutes to got to one 10P school and at least once a month almost two hours to another 10P school. You just have to push through the difficulties in order to get what you must earn (even though you already have the rank).
No one ever accused you of faking rank or whatever it is that your being so defensive about. I assume that's why you keep bringing up the fact you have up your blue belt. Like Zog said you won't last long here if you over text so quickly. 10th planet is a family but that won't stop us from pushing your buttons.
But what do I know? I'm too stupid to read your post correctly.
It's true Brent is a dummy. Heck he even runs a website that HELPS you get cauliflower ear like who would ever want to do that?

This thread is becoming famous LOL, i just wanted to know how its done online now i know so thank you everyone who told me that it only applies if you got no 10p schools near you etc etc but yeah other than that i know you get promoted through hard training attendance performance and consistency of competing but yeah whole point of my thread was to find out how online, otjher than that thank you everyone, i cant wait to start learning 10P Jiu jitsu all ive been doing at the moment is reading eddies twister book and rubber guard book i got and his youtube vids which help a hell of a lot, but yeah cant wait to be actually taught by a coach to correct little mistakes within my skill set, im sick and tired of gracie bjj not the kind of jits i wanna learn
Can't help but agree with this.Quote:
