Royal Invitational: The Future of Jiu-Jitsu (Episode 1)

Episode Synopsis: Who are the best up and coming talents in the world of jiu-jitsu? We're not talking about black belts here – we mean the blue, purple and brown belts tearing up the competition scene, who could be standing atop of the podium of the black belt world championships in a few years.

Royal Invitational – The Future of Jiu-Jitsu is an exclusive invite-only jiu-jitsu invitational tournament that went down in June 2016, and sought to answer this question by pitting a select few standouts against each other in a closed-door tournament at Studio 540 in San Diego. 

In Episode 1 of ROYAL, you can go inside the most secretive jiu-jitsu tournament in the world and find out who's who.

Meet the competitors, see the action, discover the amazing story of these future stars, and – most importantly – find out who is number one. 

Episode one showcases a combined 16-man blue and purple belt bracket and features a plethora of standout competitors who are World, PanAm and Brazilian champions.
