Sacramento Martial Arts Academy Produces Three Panamerican Champions

March 23, 2016 By Admin Leave a Comment

This past weekend, Yemaso BJJ took a small group of competitors to the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation’s Pan American Championship in Irvine, CA.  This tournament is the largest Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament held in the greater American continent.  It is not uncommon for a martial artist’s division to have over one-hundred competitors all vying for the gold medal and opportunity to earn the distinction of Panamerican champion.

We brought six medals back to Sacramento, and three of them were gold!

Head instructor, Marcos “Yemaso” Torregrosa won his 4th Panamerican title just weeks after his Abu Dhabi trials gold medal.

Sacramento Martial Artist Wins Trip to Fight in Abu Dhabi

March 17, 2016 By Admin

Our head instructor, Marcos “Yemaso” Torregrosa traveled to New York City to compete in the NYC ADCC Trials, a satellite tournament, to win an all expense paid trip to the United Arab Emirates for a chance to compete in the World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Cup.  The ADCC Trials, is a tournament that you have to win in order to get a ticket to compete in another much larger and more prestigious tournament.

The World Jiu-Jitsu Pro is one of the most prestigious tournaments in the grappling community and one of the hardest to compete in due to the talent it attracts with cash prizes.  One of the unique traits of this tournament is that it is exclusively funded by the Prince of the United Arab Emirates, Sheik Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

2015 Winter Promotions

Our Sacramento Martial Arts Academy has grown a lot.  Last Saturday, December 5th we celebrated the realization of hard work in the form of belt promotions.  People often ask, what the difference between Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and other martial arts is.  Well, one of the most readily available differences to note is how, generally speaking, difficult it is to attain rank in BJJ.  But, on the bright side, it’s what makes getting promoted in BJJ feel like such an accomplishment each time.  To say it’s rewarding, is an understatement.  The majority of members have stated that they place it right up there with the top experiences of their lives.  People who have become doctors, lawyers, professors, etc.  will rank something they do for recreation as one of the most significant things they’ve done with their lives.  We make an earnest effort to be supportive of one another here and help each other grow through the ranks until the final goal of becoming a black belt.  Without a doubt, the best thing we have going for us here is the community.  You won’t find anyone here who won’t point out another teammate as being a big reason they were able to ascend to the next rank and help their overall progress.  Without further adieu…
