During the days of the Oscar, Jiu-Jitsu gained another blue belt in Casablanca, the famed Moroccan city eponymous to one of the greatest classics in film history.
All the fruit of the labors of the Brazilian Top Team in Switzerland, as reported to GRACIEMAG.com byprofessor and our GMA Anderson Pereira.

“On the 6th, we held at BTT Bienne a big black belt exam in the morning. In the afternoon, we held a training session with all the affiliate academies. The Swiss academies from the cities of Geneva, Bienne, Cologny were there. From France, academies from Margencel, St. Genis, Annecy marked their presence. Even Morocco had representation, in our branch in Casablanca,” said Anderson.
The latest Jiu-Jitsu black belts in Europe, with Anderson in the middle.
“The event was held at the branch of instructors Marcelo and Paulão, who received with open arms the 50 athletes. 14 practitioners were given new belts: seven blues, three purples, two browns and two new black belts, Elie and Francisco,” he remarked.
Kudos to Morocco’s Adil Makroum, who traveled from Casablanca for a week of intensive training and in the end got a blue belt from Anderson’s hands to boot.
