Royler Gracie and Royce Gracie Teaching Together for the First Time in 10 Years! Last Days to Register for the LX Jiu-Jitsu Association Gathering!
31 October 2009

4-time Brazilian-Jiu-Jitsu World Champion Royler Gracie and 3-time UFC Champion Royce Gracie will be making a rare appearance together as they start off the celebrations for the 4th Annual Leonardo Xavier Jiu-Jitsu Association Gathering on Saturday November 14th, 2009 in Sugar Land Texas.

Former Gracie Family Protégé and third degree black belt Leonardo Xavier’s national association will come together and be honored with the rare opportunity of hosting both 6 degree black belt brothers as they teach a two-hour long seminar that will cover a myriad of techniques as they were created and taught by their own father Helio Gracie.  Once the much anticipated seminar concludes, Royce and Royler will help Leonardo in recognizing his student’s progression in BJJ during a belt promotion ceremony that will see members from all 10 of the association’s schools take the next step towards achieving black belt excellence. After the belt promotion Royler and Royce will address the students hold a Q&A and Leonardo will kick off a special awards ceremony that will honor his own teachers and will recognize association student’s achievements both on and off the mats. 

The Gathering will then culminate with LXBJJ association members from all parts of the country being treated to a very special lunch provided by Tradicao Brazilian Steakhouse, a famous Houston eatery that features some of Brazil’s finest barbeque dishes for them all to eat and enjoy together.

Don't miss the opportunity to make part of this special event.  To register please email contact@leonardoxavier.com.


LX Jiu-Jitsu is NAGA Overall Kids and Teens Champion Two Times in a Row!
20 October 2009

Leaded by Leonardo Xavier, the LX Jiu-Jitsu Association became the NAGA Kids and Teens Overall Team Champion two times in a row this year.

 
The LX Jiu-Jitsu team was able to come full force with not only the Houston students but also with other associated schools members. The team was combined with members from Texas (LX Jiu-Jitsu Houston and LX Jiu-Jitsu School of Mission, TX), Oklahoma (LX Jiu-Jitsu School of Edmond, Ok and LX Jiu-Jitsu School of Tulsa, Ok) and Arkansas ( LX Jiu-Jitsu School of Searcy, AR).  It was a true honor to compete as a unified team and the new members from Arkansas showed not only great heart, but proved they are a great addition to the growing Lx Jiu-Jitsu Association.
 
In the Kids and Teens, the LX Jiu-Jitsu Assciation was 1000 points ahead of second place, which was almost as twice as many points as second.
 
Leonardo Xavier said: "I am very pleased with the team's performance. It was great to see the kids win the team trophy and was a testament of the bright future of not only the kids themselves, but also the LX Jiu-Jitsu Association as a team.  It was also very important for me to see the strong team united from different states with one goal in mind.  I would like to thank Ty Gay, Blake Hayes, Sal Trevino and Chris Kimball for their great job on helping the team get ready for this tournament!  Also I would like to thank every single member who help these competitors train because without you, their training would not be possible or complete."
