Aiming for the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt
Six colored belts are used to signify grades in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. The belts, in ascending order of grades are: white, blue, purple, brown, black and red. An athlete has to be at least 16 years old to be awarded blue belt. Some academies divide the grading system further into four stages signified by different belt colors — white, yellow, orange and green. Though red is the highest rank in belts, only the Gracie family members, the pioneers in the field of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, are known to have advanced to this level.
Most, if not all, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athletes aspire to be black belt holders. An athlete has to be at least 18 years old to qualify for black belt. And this is not enough; the athlete has to work hard to get there. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athletes are promoted on the basis of their practical knowledge, which is observed during sparring and competitions.
An athlete aiming for black belt has to practice as an athlete and also as a trainer. The level of perfection required rises with the grades. This makes getting a promotion tougher as the grades rise. A black belt aspirant must have knowledge of all the techniques and should master them. He must be a good observer. He must study all techniques and question his trainer about the use of different moves and how can adapt them to his style of fighting. Showing curiosity in the sport can also help the athlete get special attention from the trainer. This can help him learn fast and get an advantage over his peers.
A black belt aspirant has to practice meticulously and also maintain a strict diet. He can even maintain a record of his training hours and diet for better monitoring. He can also maintain a diary to record his improvement in various moves. It will help him record his daily performance, strengths and weaknesses. These records can also help him train his students.
Some Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academies also consider an athlete’s track record before promoting him to a higher grade. A black belt aspirant must follow all the rules and ethics of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and avoid doing anything that would invite negative reviews from his trainer.

Sparring $97.19 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Sparring is a form of training common to many martial arts. Although the precise form varies, it is essentially relatively freeform fighting, with enough rules, customs, or agreements to make injuries unlikely, by extension, argumentative debate is sometimes called verbal sparring. The physical nature of sparring naturally varies with the nature of the skills it is intended to develop; sparring in a striking art such as Chun Kuk Do will normally begin with the players at opposite sides of the ring and will be given a point for striking the appropriate area and will be given a foul for striking an inappropriate area or stepping out of the ring. Sparring in a grappling art such as judo might begin with the partners holding one another and end if they separate. The organization of sparring matches also varies, if the participants know each other well and are friendly, it may be sufficient for them to simply play, without rules, referee, or timer.
