AOJ's black belt Pans squad features homegrown rookie talent, established veterans in the AOJ backbone, and a few new recruits hopeful to contribute to the Costa Mesa team's success.

No-Gi Worlds is right around the corner and once again the black belts are looking to set the bar for professional jiu-jitsu a level higher. In the women’s lightweight division, there are four top contenders, each stylistically different, vying for the number one spot.
