Professor Chris Savarese promoted to 2nd degree blackbelt

Congrats to Professor Chris Savarese on being promoted to 2nd degree on his blackbelt from Professor Rafael Lovato jr tonight! It is quite an honor because Savarese is now eligible to give blackbelts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Blackbelts are not allowed to promote students to blackbelt until they are a 2nd degree blackbelt. Professor Lovato and Professor Savarese both made moving speeches and it was a great night for everyone involved at the Savarese BJJ Academy last night!
