Thanks for watching the Rick Ellis Purple Belt Exam by Roy Dean.

[@marekmaxpabianice]

i love the way Roy rolls... he does not want to prove he is better than a blue belt, he helps him learn... such a rare thing when rolling with a black belt, they will just submit u 3x per minute

[@ronthemogul]

When you find humble ones they are just willing to let you try your work

[@FriePaul1337]

or the "I just want to try somethings on you." Famous last words :')

[@ReddyCWR]

Exceptionally sharp blue belt! Well deserved purple.

[@cadillacboi420]

WHY CANT THERE BE A SCHOOL LIKE THIS WHERE I LIVE I SEE STRAIGHT TECHNIQUE ON EVERYTHING no one is forcing anything very patient and flows im like wow the whole time i cant wait till i can develop my tech like that

[@simplicity126]

Well deserved purple.. I really enjoy watching this video. No one was using overwhelming strength or athleticism to their advantage. Everyone was very technical. It's beautiful display of BJJ

[@ThePoonce]

been training in BJJ for 1 month, dont even have my 1st strip yet, ( Alliance). totally awsome spot on stuff. Inspiration to continue

[@fropett3129]

Are you still training bjj?

[@kpax9852]

I'm always mesmerized watching Roy Dean roll.

[@RodrigoVanilla93]

all these belt demo really capture the essense of martial "ARTs"

[@therealrickellis]

Roy Dean requires a specific number of techniques from each position, as well as a certain number of three technique combinations (roughly 70 techniques total). It's up to each athlete to create their demo, which is why each one is a little different. The idea is to showcase techniques that reflect your particular game.

[@TheloniusJ]

Sweet. Love the way this video is more intimate, with the music toned down. Great techniques and smooth rolling. Well deserved.

[@hero4301]

Great Job Rick!!!

[@MisterHuxtable]

Excellent belt demo.

[@miguelpagan8436]

Curto muito seu canal meu irmão 🙏🏻 sou do Brasil 🇧🇷 abraço @Roydean

[@watergrip]

rick reminds me of howie mandell a bit..probably due to the bald head and goatee..but i remember watching the first blue belt demonstration a few years ago. its good to see that rick is still sticking with it. congrats!

[@chavamma]

wow Amazed by your sensei he's really humble, he could of just submitted you and yet flowed with you even kinda let you get that kimura.

[@Gallagur-xz6fr]

Sick transition into the triangle @ 02:53 It was like watching a magic trick. I had to watch a few times to figure out how he did it.

[@kalae96792]

beast!

[@anonymousreviewer169]

No ego whatsoever. I wish I could transcend my game beyond my insecurities.

[@chavamma]

Where's your Dojo @ I like the decor & the mats just go with it perfectly!

[@waldomarek]

wow @ that triangle @ 3.16!

[@mbopy22]

Great vid. I wonder where can I get that white GI, what brand is it?

[@Clutchisback1PC]

GREAT JOb rick!!! COngrats!!! BOWERMAN FOR BROWN!!!

[@dubhudz]

great stuff.

[@SheboyganGrappler]

Classic Roy Dean 14:08...smooth

[@jeronimo1983]

oss

[@kennjay79]

i noticed that every purple belt demo is a little different, is this because they get to choose the extra submissions, or do they pull from a group of techniques taught in class?

[@madeku]

2:54 = very slick positional transition

[@lightsparks]

what is the name of the sweep at 1:56? and the actual submission at 2:59?

[@k00lkane]

@kanguesso By be careful in whos training you you mean check his BJJ background right?

[@corycaplick3666]

That guy looks familiar

[@yellowandy]

I hear Roy is a bit of an odd duck outside of BJJ but watching him let his students tap him so they can finish and learn their techniques...... He's a fantastic BJJ instructor. OSS!

[@ccrass4443]

Looks like Roy trains his students in BJJ like a Judoka is trained in Judo. Every belt has certain techniques they must master before promoting. Great way to train and to promote. Wish more schools taught that way. Where I train you “learn” 96 techniques (3 each class) in a 16 week “fundamentals” class that you repeat every 16 weeks for about a year before you get an opportunity to go to another 16 week curriculum with another set of techniques. There is never time to actually learn the techniques.

[@MonacoRocha]

Hi.. Is this Gracie Bjj ? Anyone Please ?

[@kanguesso]

@cadillacboi420 The reason why you won't see many schools like this where you or i live is because BJJ or MMA in general for that matter has now sadly become more about money. The business potential of this beautiful art is so promising that it prompted all the enthusiasts to come out of the woodworks in an effort to cash in on this gold rush. All the Karate schools that were open just 5 years ago have now turned into BJJ or MMA schools. You have to be very careful of who's teaching you and why.
