Facebook post..... "Whoever gives Rener Gracie and Ryron Gracie flack for their blue belt process, let me say this...DO the WORK..after 10 years, I caught myself sweating and working as hard for this blue belt test(just finished recording) as I did for my blue belt 8 years ago for Pedro Sauer! Unless you adopt this curriculum for yourself and try it first hand, please don't speak uneducated thoughts/opinions. ( Jim Bundy agrees as he is talking right beside me"   Micah Bender (Team Bundy Gracie JJ)
