When you go to HQ to train if your are trying to get a Purple Belt know that you will be expected to roll with top Purples and perform that will be a major part of if you do or do not get promoted also dont expect to train for one day and get a promotion you will need to show that you are committed to the promotion and come in everyday you are there make it to both day and night classes too, if you do all that even if you dont get promoted at the minimum you will learn what you need to improve on and make all the connections you need to get looked at again in the future remember everyone likes a promotion but as was said before the more important thing is the journey have fun and enjoy your trip to HQ its awesome.
You must pull the sword from the stone and slay the mountain troll. Only then will you obtain rank.
Remember to be humble and hungry. Some people come to HQ feeling they have already deserved or earned a promotion and leave disappointed with themselves for not getting it. It's best to come hungry for jiu jitsu knowledge, for learning and training and to experience the great knowledge that Eddie has to offer and the great training partners at HQ. Be prepared to roll infront of the whole class with someone in your weight class and of higher skill level. You are not necessarily expected to defeat this person, but you need to show your skill and poise. Relax and have fun.
