Legends MMA – Inaugural Grading

Fri, 09 Nov 2018 12:21:07 +0000

In November 2018, Legends MMA held its first ever grading event since the gym officially
opened less than 6 months ago. As Legends MMA grew over the last few months it was great to
see the amazing turnout and it was humbling to see how strong the Legends MMA family has
grown in a short time.

There were a number of members at the gym who came in with a lot of existing training under
our head coach David Younan, who were therefore overdue for their belts since joining Legends
MMA. Ninos Dammo, head of the Australian Elite Team, joined us to promote four new blue
belts on the night.

The night was also highlighted by Legends MMA head coach, David Younan, receiving his 1st
degree black belt – marking 3 years of experience as a black belt!

Kit Dale Seminar

Wed, 22 Aug 2018 11:18:55 +0000

Legends MMA was proud to host Kit Dale in Melbourne for his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu seminar. Kit is
a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt under Yuri Simões, and is widely heralded as one of the elite
competitors representing Australia on the world stage. Kit had been training for just under 5
years when he was awarded his black belt, being one of the fastest progressions to black belt
on record at the time.

During his seminar, Kit shared with us his unique approach to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu which breaks
away from traditional training practices – Kit’s focus is more on training the mind during live
rolling, as opposed to training the body which comes from the traditional approach of repetitive
drilling of techniques.
