Solarte BJJ

10/18/2026

Yesterday Solarte showed up at The Revolution with a solid crew and a lot of heart. Ben, Luke, Chip, Kyle, and Blaski all stepped onto the mats across different age, belt, weight, gi, and no-gi divisions. Every one of them came away with something valuable.

Luke had an incredible day. He had a totally dominant performance versus waaaay bigger fellas, taking double gold with all submission wins. Ben showed a ton of grit and had a blast competing in his first gi match ever. He had solid wins in both gi and no gi. Chip got a real look at what brown-belt competition demands and came away with clear things to sharpen. Kyle tested himself against some very experienced opponents, including a long-time black belt in no-gi. He came away with plenty of technical lessons to bring back into the room. Blaski stepped up against a tough black belt opponent. It was great to see him back in competition!

The best part wasn’t just wins or losses. It was seeing everyone support one other—cornering each other, making adjustments, and competing with intention. So proud of you guys!!!! 🥇🥇🥈🥈🥈

NEW CLASS starting this week: BJJ Kids for ages 6-8! Thursdays 3:30-4:15pm, this session is for young children who are now ready to work with other kids. They might not have -quite- the attention span, size or experience to join the Youth Class (ages 8-14), but they’ll love the fun training games that build real jiu-jitsu skills. The 45-minute class also includes open play time. This is a no gi class so no uniform is required--regular active wear is good.
