Congratulations to 2 hardworking grapplers!
Adam Gray is a consistently challenging training partner and OG Workshopian. His perky jiu jitsu is always problematic to deal with, and he is a cornerstone of the hardy lunchtime crew. Congratulations on your Brown Belt, Adam!
Nick Clendon now at Blue Belt, his skill and dedication to training makes this promotion the easiest of decisions. Congratulations Nick!

Congrats to our magnificent Josh "O Captain!" Montague, Workshops newest Black Belt.
Our hardworking Josh Montague is a magician on the mats, and sets a high standard for work ethic at Workshop. Talking to Josh about progress on his latest project is often met with a "Slowly but surely" refrain, which is contradicted by Josh's consistent training- it really isn’t that slowly at all!
Josh is always spares time for eager Workshopians helping them evolve their tactics, and improve as competitors.
Josh is amazing to watch and a fearless competitor, with over 100 wins (80 by submission!). One notable memory was when he lead our 2nd quintet team to victory with 3 back-to-back wins, the rest of the team was much relieved when he left some for the rest of us.
Josh's competition game is only exceeded by his tight shorts game, and all we can say is that the RDLs really do work.
Well done Joshua Montague, it's wonderful to have you be part of Workshop, we're so glad to award you your black belt.
