Yes, you will get the “Ambassador Patches Kit” – Note that only people who referred friends can have it. And on top of that, you will get a $50.00 gift card of your choice!

But we do urge you to come to our front desk and claim it because our team can get busy and make mistakes and not handle your rewards, so, do not feel embarrassed at any point, please.

You just helped a lot our school to grow and to help our community by teaching kids and adults the values and the hard work ethics of BJJ.

Hey friend,
Over the years we realized that the success of any school is not only about creating great students but to keep farming great coaches.
Only with great coaches, we will have great students.

1. We are currently looking to hire new personnel, we are always in need of Fitness coaches, Kickboxing coaches, Cardio Kickboxing coaches as well staff to work on events like Parents Night out, Day camps and Summer camp.
If you are interested or know of someone that could be interested please reply to this email.

2. We are always recruiting volunteers as well as looking for people to start volunteering and experiencing how to be a coach.
This could definitely evolve to a part-time position and or to a full-time position.
Who can do that? Any Parent, any teenager student, any former student, you will be trained on how to teach you will learn the guidelines of assisting and teaching and expectations.

You must understand when you are an assistant instructor or an instructor it is about giving and serving, not about you anymore.
All adults must go through a background check and possibly a drug test before the start.

If that fits your wants and needs please reply to this email. Subject assistant coach.

Thank You
Sampa Staff

Hey Friend,

We have a couple of rules about the uniforms at Sampa, please make sure you acknowledge them and help us to respect them.
Uniforms must be clean – A clean gi is a sign of respect towards your training partners, Do you know that you can’t compete with a dirty gi nor a torn gi?
In Brazil, we use the word Kimono for our Gis, so kimono must be washed after every single class, like any other cloth of yours.

You should not wash your belt, except in cases you have dropped food or something else in it or you have sued too much in it, dragged on the floor, etc., and made it very dirty.

Only three colors are allowed to be worn at Sampa Jiu Jitsu – White – Blue and Black (Black only for advanced class). No grey, nor green nor yellow, nor camouflage neither read are allowed.

The color of the jacket must match the color of the paints.
NO EXCEPTIONS!

In the past, we allowed some kids to use the pink gi or kimono, it is still allowed but we are moving away from it.

We do sell gis at our school but differently than many other schools we do not obligate people to buy our own gi, the policy could change.

But we do urge everyone to wear our patches in their gis, we are still a team and it does look good and give a great sense of pride when everyone has the school patches and shirts when in class.

The same can be said to Fitness classes and to the No-gi classes, having our t-shirts make the class so neat and we all can experience a great sense of team, camaraderie, and pride.

If you need to buy a gi/kimono or a patch or a t-shirt from us please contact the front desk immediately and they will be glad to help. Very often we do sales to help people buy the uniform and be ready for class.

Best Regards
Prof. Renato

Eligibility not Entitlement
We decided to write this article to explain the belt systems and stripes acquisition at Sampa jiu-jitsu so everyone is on the same page
The first couple of belts in our school are not too hard to conquer, in fact, they are more about showing up.

Actually, there is a saying: “99% of success is about showing up”.

Later of course when kids and adults evolve to their 3rd belt level we as coaches require more responsibility from the athlete, to ensure more performance and legitimacy for subsequent belts.

To make it clear every time a student receives a stripe he or she must spend some time in that stripe until receiving the next one.

Only four stripes are rewarded in each belt so after the fourth stripe, a student must again respect the grace period in that stripe and then wait for the instructor to say that he or she is eligible for the next belt.

But it is appropriate now to say, that even when the grace period is up, it is still up to the coach and the school board to decide if the student is legit and ready to the next belt.

Meaning, after the grace period in the fourth stripe the student is eligible to receive the next belt but not yet entitled.

Our concern is not only to water down our program but also not to beat up our kid’s confidence. We want our kids to work hard for what they want and instill hard work ethics in everything they put their time into.

That is why in BJJ – Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu we do not allow kids to have a black belt, because it requires a huge maturity process and sense of responsibilities that kids many times do not have.

A long time ago Prof. Renato with the help of Sampa Staff had developed a great DVD set about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that covers pretty much the basics, essentials, or fundamentals techniques the one must learn in the first 2 years, maybe a bit more.

Having this DVD set will help you to refer to classes and memorize the techniques and quickly develop your game plan.

Of course, you must know, learn and develop other techniques that we do not cover on the DVD set but it is a hack of a starting point and will save you from many mistakes in your journey!

It is not a class curriculum but yes it can help you to develop one. That been said this DVD set is great for beginner students, for coaches that need to review Basics, for school owners developing a curriculum for parents to help their kids learning process, etc.

You can get this DVD set directly by ordering in person at Sampa in Glendora or through Amazon.
Here is the link to find it on amazon:

We decided to write this article to explain our Culture to everyone at Sampa jiu-jitsu, so everyone is on the same page including fitness students.
it is imperative to abide by our rules and culture in order for to everyone have the best time here. It is also OK to change schools just because you believe our culture and rules do not relate to the moral code, values, and ethics you have or want for your child.

Jiu-Jitsu/Judo is an art where a more elevated sense of behavior is appropriate.

Sampa Students should always use Jiu-Jitsu/Judo/Martial arts to develop their body and mind through minimum effort and maximum efficiency with mutual respect to themselves and others.

The one who practices martial arts at Sampa does not seek perfection to fight but fight to seek perfection.
A great student is the one who pursues intelligence, to comprehend what is taught, has the patience to pass on what was taught to others, and has faith to believe in what is not yet comprehended.

If you are thinking about being defeated, you have already lost.

To approach perfection, one needs to chase it with consistency, wisdom, and overall humility.

Learn every day a little bit more and use it every day for the good in the way of true men.

When one realizes with sadness that does not know enough, he has made the first step towards progression.

Never be proud of defeating an opponent, the one you just defeated today, can defeat you tomorrow.
The only victory that lasts is the one that one accomplishes over his own ignorance.

Practice Martial arts at Sampa is to teach the mind to think with speed and accuracy as well as teach the body to obey it properly.
The Body is a weapon whose efficiency depends on the precision one uses his intelligence.

Sampa's Moral Code: Politeness, Courage, Sincerity, Honor, Modesty, Respect, Self-Control, Friendship, Genuine knowledge, Indomitable Spirit.
