Congratulations Belt Promotions
 Saturday, November 19, was a great day of training, skills demonstration and belt promotions at Impact Jiu Jitsu in Beaverton. In total, eight new belts were awarded.
Todd Betters was presented with his black belt on Saturday morning. His highly technical and extremely fluid style of Jiu Jitsu are a testament to his commitment to the sport and his training. Todd is an amazing asset - both as a training partner and resource. For more than ten years, we have enjoyed the honor of having him as a leader of the Impact team.
Later in the day, after more than two hours of skills demonstrations, the following team members were presented with new belts.
Brown Belt: Tony Gracia
Purple Belt: Sean Duffy, James Sebastian, K.C. Thompson
Blue Belt: Ben Coffman, Justin Dewan, Michael Kingham
Earlier in the month in Newberg (November 8), Roger Wolf received his purple belt and Scott Bones received his blue belt.
Congratulations to all these athletes. Your hard work and growth is inspiring to us all. Photos can be found on Facebook.
