About Me

My name is Romeo Barnes. I'm an author and a BJJ black belt with cerebral palsy. This blog is about my life balancing existence in two worlds. My latest book, My World is now available Amazon.com. Glad you're here, enjoy the journey.

American Nationals

Normally, Nationals(excluding Brazilian Nationals, because it's part of the grand slam) events never matter. However, the IBJJF has taken the right steps towards making the Regional and National tournaments matter with the new point system introduced after this year's World Championship event. I'm not going to talk about results here, just know that you now have another reason to watch American Nationals and tournaments like it. Not only are these the tournaments where the next generation truly shines, but it's also where they earn their spot in the biggest tournament of the year.

Seminars

This post is an really interest poll. I'm free for the summer, so anyone interested in a seminar taught by me, hosted at Maguilla's Academy please contact me here by commenting here, by email, or responding other forms of social media. Everyone is welcome, but this seminar will be tailored towards those with disabilities. Date and details will be announced after the data is collected.
