On December 1, 2007, the Kimura BJJ Academy’s level rises again and recognizes the improvements in skill of its students. In particular Bill Duffy, Diego Ferroni, Matthews Franco, and Marcos Silva were all awarded their purple belts, a great achievement for them as well as the Kimura Academy! Congratulations to everyone who participated in the promotion!

Once again it’s amazing how much everyone has improved since the last promotion. We would like to take the time to thank Jean and Michael for providing us with a high level of technique, instruction, and most of all friendship! Thank you! And a thank you to all the students for helping each other, and sharing your time and knowledge to help make Kimura BJJ one of the best academies in New England!
