This class is taught in English.

At the end of this first stripe, the students are ready to apply this newfound knowledge to
fundamental ground attacks; many of which will feel much more familiar after completing the first stripe.

1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will be formatively assessed by viewing their short clips of practised techniques. There will be feedback and advice on how to fix any difficulties that arise during the assessment.  Students will be graded accordingly as they complete this course. If students don't want to grade they can just follow the videos presented to learn the technique to understand Brazilian jiu-jitsu. However, if students want to progress they will have to engage in their homework and be assessed to achieve their grades. 
Grades Offered
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), practitioners are ranked through a belt system that signifies their level of proficiency and experience. The belts are often coloured, and they include a series of stripes to further denote progress within each belt. The purpose of the stripes is to provide more detailed recognition of a student's advancements.

for example:

White Belt: This is the starting point for all practitioners. As a white belt, a student learns the fundamental techniques and principles of BJJ. Stripes on the white belt typically signify progress and time spent training. For example, a white belt may have four stripes before being eligible for promotion to the next belt.

It's important to note that the criteria for earning stripes and belt promotions may vary between BJJ schools and instructors. Promotion is generally based on a combination of factors, including technical proficiency, time spent training, competition performance, and the individual's overall contribution to the BJJ community. The belt and stripe system serves as a way to acknowledge and motivate practitioners as they progress through their BJJ journey.
