Former Brazilian National Champion (2008), European Champion (2008), and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu World Champion (2009), Cory Robison visited Crossville MMA this past Monday and hosted a NoGi seminar for both our kids and our adults.

This past Saturday, Memento Combat Sports in Louisville, TN hosted their second in-house tournament, this time it was a NoGi only event under the ADCC rules set.

This tournament was put in place to get beginners and intermediate grapplers a chance to compete in a tournament under the ADCC rules set.  The ADCC, or Abu Dhabi Combat Club, tournament is the largest and most prestigious tournament in the world.  It is the Olympics of Jiu-Jitsu and held every other year.  The past year though, the ADCC started hosting open tournaments all over the world, and the Memento tournament was a great way for athletes to get exposed to the rule-set that the ADCC tournaments use.
