Failure will be one of the best teachers we will ever have. At Ascend we want kids to learn that failure is not a bad thing. Failure is critical to success. With so many young kids. The main thing we want to teach kids about failure is, is how to fail. To get them comfortable with failure. So they can use failure as they grow up to achieve anything they want.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
