Huge congrats to new Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt Joel Gingery of Memphis Judo & Jiu-Jitsu. He was awarded his BB last night by BTT BB Adriano Nasal.
Joel is also a BB in Judo and is the hardest working guy that I have ever trained with. We are all very proud of him.
HUGE CONGRATS JOEL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This has been such a long time coming. He is a great guy and great
grappler. I always learn a lot when I train with Joel and David.
TTT
Congrats! I plan on moving to Memphis for work after I get my AWS Certifications and finish the fabrication program.
Memphis Judo and Jiujitsu looks like a great place to train.
That guy is a beast. I went up against him in a tourney a few years ago and got thrashed. I'd hate to see what damage he can do now. Huge accomplishment, well earned.
Congratulations Joel glad to hear you got your BB in BJJ also. Very well deserved.
BTW Joel has some of the sickest kouchis and seoinages in the south.

At least you only had to grapple him once though lol unlike the other people at the gym
Joel was happy, it was a cool moment!
Congradulations, Joel. I'm happy to see things are going great for you guys up there. Dave Ferguson and Joel are great people to train with, and I advise anyone in the area to stop by and roll with them. Congrats, again, Joel.
