tell you have trained all over the world with many different great black belts and I have watched BJJ change a lot in the last 17 years. But it wasn't till I started taking a few privates from Henry Akins did a see a whole new JiuJitsu I had never felt before.
My name is Henry Akins and I teach Jiu Jitsu at Dynamics MMA in los angeles, CA. I trained with Rickson Gracie for over 15 years. I got my black belt from Rickson in 2004.
Training with the man most people think is the greatest JJ master ever was an amazing experience for me. It really changed my life.
Rickson Gracie black belt Henry Akins will be conducting a two-day seminar at Front Range Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy / CrossFit in Littleton, Colorado on May 29-30, 2010.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Gi) on Saturday, May 29th, 2010 from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Head Instructors Henry Akins (Rickson Gracie BJJ blackbelt) and Antoni Hardonk (protege of Johan Vos, K-1 and UFC fighter) would like to invite everyone to the grand opening of their new gym. Dynamix Martial Arts is a training facility offering the highest level of technique in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Dutch Kickboxing, we are also offering classes in MMA, Self-Defense and Yoga for conditioning and recouperation.
Have you ever felt like you were not progressing in Brazilian jiu-jitsu? How often do you get the sensation that all the other jiu-jitsu students are getting better and you’re the same BJJ student you were a month ago? We recently received an email from Gary, one of the Mighty 600,000 along these lines, saying:
Henry Akins is the third American to be promoted to black belt under Rickson Gracie, and has actually served as the main instructor for Rickson’s headquarters in Los Angeles. It’s not likely that anyone save Rickson’s sons have had as much of a chance to work with the man over the last decade than Henry.
