Last night was a special one at Grove Jiu-Jitsu.
Three of our senior coaches have been training over 40 years each 😲, so we've choked a lot of people over the years...
And few were more memorable than Pascal 'P***y' Benson, a friend and training partner for over two decades. He was 'old school' : training 5 times a week before Jiu-Jitsu was cool, and he loved a good scrap 😉
Pascal sadly passed away last year after a long and well lived life, but not before he got to see his many grandkids enter this world.
Last night, two of them took their first steps in their grandfather's shoes and earned their white belts after months of dedicated practice
We never mention their names on social media for safeguarding reasons, but we all know who they are!
Well done lads, we're all very proud of you, and, from the performances last night, Grandpa is watching over you for sure 👊
