Achieving Purple Belt: Jack Smail's Inspiring Demonstration

[@danhickman9956]

This is currently my favorite thing on the internet (Roy Dean demonstration videos). I appreciate the beauty of the videos, but even more the beauty of the Jiu Jitsu demonstrated in them. Much respect to Roy Dean and his academy.

[@PkrDealer86]

Bro this is all i watch now, nothing compares

[@WeCoachMentalHealth]

would love to have someone shot my videos like this

[@bobbychristopher2637]

I guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any help you can give me!

[@marshallkorbyn2410]

@Bobby Christopher Instablaster =)

[@bobbychristopher2637]

@Marshall Korbyn Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@spoonman73]

I love the way Roy combines modern martial arts with the traditional rituals and values of honor and respect.

[@adnerfranco4848]

The quality in these videos is awesome. The gi sound on the mat, damnnn... 😌

[@kaibe5241]

haha yeah, sounds good :)

[@user-qt1it9zo1s]

Swoosh swoosh

[@liamhopkins29]

there were a few moments where the stretching of the gi sounded just like ropes do on those seafaring ships of olde. 2 people caught in a life and death dance, like a ship on the ocean

[@HikariSoulstrider]

Never ceases to amaze me the quality of the jiu-jitsu here. Excellent job, well deserved!

[@s1r155]

The old brown belt's good, as a fellow oldie he's given me some inspiration

[@steffonwhitaker295]

I can’t remember his name But he was promoted to black belt. His demonstration is pretty awesome too.

[@fo978]

@@steffonwhitaker295 it's Rick. He's bad ass.

[@bevilhive]

Think this is the same guy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYfXY6aOitVsbNU

[@theomen49]

I love that you went easy on him towards the end and even let him tap you in front of everyone. Sets a good example to the school that even a black belt should get tapped by lower belts at times.

[@kaibe5241]

I think he was wanting him to get a technique down, so once he had position, he let him finish. Shouldn't always dominate imho - learn a lot more with both of you when giving up certain positions on purpose and letting others finish.

[@Joseph_Speck]

I had a purple belt do this for me recently. Allowing me to work good technique while using enough effort to make me earn it.

[@falkhammermuller9342]

The combination of bjj and piano music is hauntingly good.

[@thefilmpoets]

Purple belt has been my goal since day one. Never met one that wasn't a baddass or also a great teacher to beginners.

[@tededo]

Been reviewing this several times this year for my purple belt prep. Really helps. Realized how big is the gap between the blue and purple. But at the stage I'm at, seasoned blue belt, I am seeing the holes in people's game. Which tells me, that next level is not so far away as years ago.

[@kurzninja]

Hands down, Roy Dean’s videos have the best music I’ve seen

[@brunoc1198]

I'm a blue belt here in Brazil. I can tell you that he deserved it. Congratulations!

[@fourmatictv]

Just in case Roy Dean wasn't a good enough judge, right? :P

[@MetaleiroBarizon]

@BigErn_Mccraken cala a boca ae o faica branca

[@rjishott]

Haha. Who cares where you from

[@kylechu4115]

All of Roy Dean’s students show the same level of fluidity, and you can see that his teaching is a very implemented into their styles. Every video I watch it’s as if I’m watching the same student. I mean that in a positive way! It’s so damn impressive the results he produces.

[@BJiuJitsuTV]

I thought these demonstrations were retired for good... glad to see i was wrong!

[@larkhallman]

Roy Deans Aikido training shows in his Jujitsu, the smooth transitions and the economy of movement, ....Beautiful Jujitsu

[@seunsonuyi5174]

10:09 RD's pressure must be suffocating! Look at Jack's face. Geesh!

[@FiggTreeCompany]

He could have ended his night with a von flue

[@kaibe5241]

Purple belt on black gi looks AWESOME! :D

[@suresh_madhavan]

The level of respect displayed in this video is off the charts. Absolute thing of beauty. Great job by that young man. Well deserved promotion.

[@mistrzszarlej1466]

Very nice! The first brown belt has some slick kimura game

[@chopngawaka7359]

Watching this in 0.5x, tearing up from how beautiful this is

[@terrellkluting5370]

He moves better than most brown belts I know.

[@savorthepassion]

Trained under Jack for a time just before the pandemic. Nice guy, accomodating, teaches moves and variations to fit different body types and a clear instructor. Fun to see where he was right before i met him

[@comiturhan]

You can tell how different the posture between a black belt and other belts just from looking at how they stand straight.

[@Arthur-nr5ci]

Love the concept of a 'demonstration' of rank!

[@nicvogel3253]

This is my boy!!! Congratulations Jack super proud of you man. Excellent representation of our gym, looked great out there

[@alanhaine644]

Poetry in motion. Mesmerising to watch.

[@chadpreston5549]

Thank you Roy dean for who you are. The gentian warrior. I love watching your students and your soft hammering of your students. Morihei Ueshiba would be proud!

[@soggie7157]

God damn this is a great video. So much respect, calm, precision, and spirit.

[@TimThavirat]

Roy Dean’s flow is so friggin awesome! Always looks like he’s just hanging out while his opponents fall into traps.

[@duarte189x]

the purple belt in this test is the real MVP. 😂🤣

[@mrrob5851]

Loved to watch a mother of these and to see him smiling while he was sparring. Great job to him. Well done well deserved.

[@gymlaxbro]

You can tell this guy works damn hard. Can also tell earning that belt meant the world to him. Love this sport

[@jimchu8994]

the piano playing...the flow...the energy...and most importantly the way the blue belt student moves.Well made!

[@hollywood4890]

Incredible display of jiu jitsu by this guy! I’m testing for my purple belt next week, live watching these videos

[@brusa81]

The best BJJ and the most enjoyable to watch! Top quality. Cheers!

[@chrisbryan75]

I love these videos. I'm a fairly new bluebelt and this one motivates me to train harder to be as smooth as this student was. Well done!!!

[@Xailow]

That was clean. Great work

[@omergenish5224]

The fact that he keep moving at fast pase and fight like that shows he has very good cardio.

[@mattcauth]

Another RD student with super smooth and solid BJJ. Congrats!

[@cjmarsh321]

How can you watch this and not feel proud of this guy

[@Bighandsdown]

Absolutely beautiful thank you for sharing 🙏🏻 and a well deserved Purple Belt

[@alexlaroque5108]

Such a different approach to learning Jiu jitsu

[@MrMegafly2011]

This is why I love JJ it’s just brilliant

[@daxalcanzare3075]

This video is pure class.

[@brianburkey9060]

Love these testing videos very cool

[@CombatCuddles11]

I’ve just started bjj a week ago. I’m so excited for the opportunity to learn and grow. Maybe one day I can be this fluid and seamless with my techniques

[@yybr85712]

Beautiful editing and production. Congratulations Jack. Roy has some very nice set ups during the spar. Excellent all round!

[@saharaharris]

A joy to watch.

[@rafaeljesus6548]

This piano is beautiful! !!

[@fabianoalves5689]

Cara é Do são mereceu faixa roxa

[@gretzeugen]

Empire GI !!!!!!!

[@LoneWulf1992]

I love this video! As a 4 stripe white belt who frequently rolls and contends with blue belts, I can see the huge evolvement from new blue belts and a top blue belt who's ready for his purple. So motivating 🤩

[@ryant7390]

Damn, jiu jitsu is the most beautiful art

[@duncansutherland47]

I’m most impressed with his take downs.

[@josephestes7076]

Respect for the bjj heritage, but also heel hooks in the gi. 👌

[@hocake8242]

Beautiful Jiu Jitsu

[@desmundreid3368]

I love these videos! The quality gets better and better!

[@SDfmm]

As a white belt with 4 months training in I shed tears watching this video. Its such an art that I am grateful to have the chance to enjoy. Such hard work and dedication goes into training and improving. This video really captures the effort put to excel and improve your skills and craft. I look forward to a lifetime of practicing jiu-jitsu. Thank you for sharing and congratulations to your purple belt!

[@billyphantha]

The editing and production of this vid is as good as the rolling. Love it.

[@therhythmatic]

This video is pretty damn awesome, very emotional, very inspiring. As a purple belt myself, I’m realizing I have a whoooole lot of work to do! This is a beautiful journey.

[@kpax9852]

Jiu Jitsu is so beautiful I love it.

[@77carlsbadsurf]

Clean, smooth, and controlled.

[@TransparentlyReal]

Beautiful ceremony!

[@toolate6971]

This is very nice falling between choreographed rolling and 50% sparring.

[@cjb8001]

That brown belt is a savage! Love these promotion videos. Your ninjas have beautiful technique. I’d love to roll with you some day 🤙🏻

[@GJJPete]

Great job Jack!

[@Momentimum]

Don't stop making these.

[@OsvaldoHurtado02]

Amazing video, Mr.Dean, they keep getting better and better. You are a true inspiration to me, thank you!

[@MM-ho1rw]

Very nice take downs.

[@angelobjj_2brothers477]

Movimentos de uma excelente demonstração de técnica e habilidade, uma inspiração para os que almejam a faixa roxa! OSS

[@northdevonbjj7541]

What a cool guy RD is 💪🏻😎

[@bodhitree33]

9:30 I would be spooked if Roy looked at me like that before a roll.

[@ihormay3418]

Just final boss appearence, lol

[@abidkhan-pm3gf]

The hunter is about to be hunted

[@thatkindofguy234]

I like they incorporate the heel hook into the gi, its a valid submission and devastating if you don't know whats happening

[@shanesmythe9101]

They're all very technical.
