Carlinhos and his red and black belt

Gracie Barra leader received highest promotion from hands of Renzo Gracie


To many black belts it's the finish line in terms of Jiu-Jitsu. But to someone like Carlos Gracie Jr, who has been a black belt for over 30 years and dedicated a lifetime to the sport, there is still room for further promotion.

Gracie Barra leader and president of the International Jiu-Jitsu Federation, Carlinhos received this May third the black and red belt. The object of desire that so few have had around their waist was delivered by one of the oldest and most applied students of the master, Renzo Gracie, in a cerimony at the newest branch of Gracie Barra , in Irvine, California.

Big names in the world of the gentle art were present at the party, as well as nearly 50 black belts, some of whom were preparing for the World Championship to take place this weekend. Check out the video shot by Caleb Queem, where Carlinhos speaks about his latest conquest:
