The Nevada State Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation Tournament brought together some of the toughest competitors in the state, and our very own Results Martial Arts students stepped onto the mats with confidence, discipline, and determination.
From kids competing in their very first tournament to seasoned students testing their skills against top-level opponents, this event was more than just a chance to win medals—it was an opportunity to live the Champion Mindset we teach every day inside our Henderson and Silverado schools.
Why Competing in BJJ Matters for Kids & Families
For parents in Henderson and Las Vegas, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is more than just a sport—it’s an investment in your child’s future. At Results Martial Arts, we teach our students that tournaments aren’t just about collecting medals. They’re about:
- Building Confidence: Stepping onto the mat in front of referees, coaches, and a crowd teaches children to face fear and perform under pressure.
- Learning Resilience: Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn. Every match, win or lose, builds grit, humility, and perseverance.
- Developing Discipline: Preparing for competition requires consistent training, focus, and commitment—skills that transfer directly into school and life.
- Strengthening Community: Students don’t just fight for themselves—they represent their team, their instructors, and their family.
Parents often tell us that they see immediate growth in their child after a tournament—more maturity, more drive, and a sense of pride that can’t be taught in a classroom.
Results Martial Arts: A “Low-Key” High-Level BJJ School in Las Vegas
Even though Results Martial Arts is best known in the community for our world-class Taekwondo program, we’ve quietly built one of the most respected Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teams in Las Vegas.
- Our morning program is led by Professor Sonny Nohara, one of the original Las Vegas black belts.
- We’re proud to have Professor Cameron Diffley—a renowned instructor and coach—as a regular on our mats.
- In addition, students learn from incredible instructors like Eric Vargas and Chris Russell, with guidance from Master Wade McCoig himself, who has trained under Sonny and Cameron for over 15 years.
Unlike many martial arts schools that bring in a black belt just to run BJJ as a side program, our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu team is fully integrated into the culture of Results Martial Arts. That’s why our students, even at a young age, learn authentic, competitive-level BJJ in a supportive, family-focused environment.
Student Highlights from the Nevada State Tournament
At this year’s Nevada State Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation tournament, our team showed what Results Martial Arts is all about.
- Kids Division: Our youngest competitors stepped up with courage, showing the discipline and composure they’ve built through hours of training. Many of them fought through nerves to score takedowns, pass guards, and hold dominant positions for the first time in competition. Their effort alone was a victory.
- Teens Division: Several of our teens brought home medals, demonstrating not only technical skill but also emotional control and sportsmanship. Parents could see how the lessons from the mat—patience, strategy, persistence—apply far beyond martial arts.
- Adult Division: Our adults competed fiercely, some earning their first podium finishes while others battled experienced competitors in tough brackets. The heart and hustle they displayed inspired our younger students watching from the sidelines.
Whether standing atop the podium or walking off the mat without a medal, every Results competitor left stronger, wiser, and more determined to grow.
How Martial Arts Competition Shapes Kids Outside the Dojo
Parents often ask us, “Why should my child compete?” The answer is simple: competition accelerates growth.
- At school: Kids who compete in BJJ often show more focus in class and confidence when speaking in front of peers.
- At home: They learn responsibility—packing their gear, keeping their uniform clean, and respecting the routine it takes to prepare.
- In life: They face challenges head-on, knowing that pressure isn’t something to fear—it’s a privilege.
The tournament environment pushes students out of their comfort zones, and that’s where growth happens.
