The highest ranks in the sport
The Legends Program
A Legend breakdown is your match or roll reviewed by a coral or red belt. These ranks take a lifetime on the mat to earn, and only a few hundred people alive hold them. Any member, at any belt, can send their footage to one of them. Subject to availability.
- Coral belt (red/black)
7th degree. The master's milestone: over 30 years of practice, teaching, and devotion to the art.
No legend announced yet- Coral belt (red/white)
8th degree. Held by masters who have spent a lifetime teaching and bringing up the next generations of students.
No legend announced yet- Red belt
9th and 10th degree. The highest rank in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, held by very few people after a lifetime in the art.

HOW IT WORKS
Reserve your place
A $50 deposit holds your place on the waitlist and counts toward the $200. We go through the waitlist strictly in order. You can get your deposit back in full any time before the balance is charged, from your account page or by email. If you take a refund, you lose your place in line.
A legend is matched to you
We check every legend’s rank and lineage before their name goes on this page, and everyone on the waitlist gets an email each time a new name is added. When your turn comes, we email you the name of the legend you’re matched with. You have 48 hours to decline. After that, we charge the balance to your card on file and confirm the match. If there’s no card on file, you pay the balance from your account instead.
Submit and keep your breakdown
Once your match is confirmed, you upload one match or roll, gi or no-gi, at any belt level. The timestamped notes, the written report and the legend’s voiceover stay in your account for good, even if you cancel your membership. Legends work on their own schedule. We aim for about 14 days after your upload, and we keep you posted. Up until you upload, you can cancel and we’ll put the balance back on your card.
We check rank and lineage before we list any instructor. If you’re a high-degree coral or red belt, you’re welcome to contact us directly. Refunds reach your card within 5 to 10 business days. If you leave the queue you lose your spot, and if you rejoin you go to the end of the line.
