Long story short, my country has very little people doing the sport and the highest ranked people so far are only blue belts. Recently a purple belt friend, teammate and instructor came back and promoted a couple people from our small team ...
We took a little trip to Altun Ha one of the Mayan temples to celebrate.
Awesome! Blue belt is tough. Make sure you share your blue belt adventure on Steemit
thanks, I will

congratulations my friend. It is crazy to me the idea of being a non whitebelt in bjj in an area where very few people are training in it. where I live if you want to train in bjj you have a variety of schools to choose from. there are 4 or 5 (and that's just considering schools I know for a fact to be good quality schools) talk about an exclusive group :O)
think of it this way you are one of the best jiu jitsu people in your country :P
