Scandinavian
BJJ Grades 2003
Bunch
of Purples
Scandinavian
BJJ belt grades – this list is by no means complete and exhaustive, they
were compiled with the help of all the academies I trained at throughout my trip;
there were many clubs I did not have time to visit and upgrades occur all the
time, but I hope this list provides readers with an overview of the size and scale
of BJJ within Scandinavia – chances are, should you step into foreign competition,
that you’ll find yourself on the mats with any number of grapplers in the
list below – good luck!
