My son started at 7 years old and l po vs it. Hes 8 now and just got his gray belt. I started Bout 6 months ago, still a white belt (we dont do stripes for adults) so no idea how much further until blue. We both love it but I work nights every other month so it's hard to make it a lot.

I've been at it a month and a half.
At least 2 nights a week BJJ followed directly by an MMA/Kickboxing class.
Cardio is already best it's ever been and improving.
A couple of weeks ago I started seeing missed opportunities.
Now I am able to put a couple of moves into play if the other guy messes up.
Completing them is another story.
Went to a tournament in Orange Beach last weekend. I didn't enter, but the kids did. They held their own.
Our primary gym is a "self defense" not a "sport/points oriented" gym. My terms, but you get the idea.
We had no idea about points, etc.
Being use to fighting until submission vs gaining an advantage and just keeping it are two totally different things.
The biggest super heavy, about 280 lbs, would get the advantage and stay flopped on his opponent until time.
Whatever. It's a blast.
