⚫ Joshua Matanane | Black Belt Demonstration | Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 

Thank you all for watching, hope you enjoyed. Professor Roy really helped me dig down deep on this one and I discovered a new me on the other side. This demo compressed is 19:30...the full version was a bit over an hour. Time well spent and will never be forgotten! Oooss!

Roy manages to help his students reach their absolute limits in these demos/tests but also understands when to dial it back and allow them to continue progressing as the situation dictates. He knows they're already exhausted by the end yet he still allows for them to fight and give everything they have. It's what makes these belt promotions so beautiful to watch and I'm sure so rewarding to accomplish as a student.

When the Roy Dean boss music came in😂😂

So beautiful to watch.

They straight up gave Roy Dean video game boss music when he first rolls.

As a white belt this is so soothing and emotional to watch. It is a real pleasure to witness the silent intensity of this beautiful art and the pure dedication of these individuals. One day maybe I will get there

The flow through techniques was incredible to watch.

The way these videos are constructed really highlight BJJ as a form of art showcasing the balance, power, and control. Absolutely incredible

Roy Dean is similar to a conductor of a major orchestra. Joshua Matanane, the featured musician of the evening. The duel between conductor and lead musician starts from the moment Josh opens his demo with Sean. The crescendo escalates with every opponent, until everyone else is silenced with the pinnacle of the dual: Josh vs Roy. A symphony of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Congratulations!

I just want to say as a white belt in his first week of class, I am floored by what I just saw. I legit felt like an anime where the kid saw something mind blowing and was like I am going to be that guy. My journey as a white belt BJJ student began 1 week ago, this video is a big push for me to get to the next step.

Brother even though I don't know you, your comments about family sacrifice and the inner calling of the warrior match my daily struggle so much. God bless you and good luck

That was so emotional. Loved the struggle when he was rolling against professor Dean and you can tell how hard he trying to fight his fatigue and himself and overcame it. Awesome video and awesome stuff

This was so much better to watch than most movies.... Much respect...

Prof. Roy - you're my hero. When I have doubts, bad moments in BJJ, I watch your videos and they're all gone. You inspire me. Thank you. osss.

I love watching demonstration on any belts in your Club.

That music change when Roy appears to roll. Like a video game when you get to fight the boss.

We should all thank the camera man/woman. Every second of it was so easy to watch making the techniques as awesome as they should be.

a large guy with beautiful effortless technique...love it!

I love how easy going and gentle the roll is here in the beginning. They’re not trying to kill each other. Major kudos to the blue/brown belt.

That first fight was so technical. Truly a thing to behold.

The thing I like most about this video is he really digs deep in the end. He exhausted but Deen comes through to help him keep going. Really great video, congrats on the bb

Prettiest Jits I've ever seen. Josh Matanane moves like the Samurai tapestries from the 16th century.

Been only at it for about a month this motivated me a lot! I go through alot of depression and anxiety, I don’t bring any ego with me to the gym or outside. My willingness to learn is always there, Watching this shows that I have a lot to learn but I am willing to follow the journey

I have been doing martial arts for 15 years and do mma, and started training bjj 2 years ago(doing gracie barra with ufc vet spencer fisher) and am a 2 stripe blue belt, and just wanted to say this was not only beautiful to watch, but very inspiring. the technique was so smooth, and the way the testing was constructed and flowed was so well done. This is truly what the martial arts is about right here. Thank for this.

Roy Dean puts the ART in martial art!

This is one of those demonstrations I wish josh would go over some his sweeps and holds. This maybe just replaced my favorite demonstration. As always I love training in person but this channel amongst one other is my homework channel. I hope some day when I travel back to the USA. I could do visit a school of Roy Deans and do even one session. I’m sure I could learn a lot in a day. You channel helps me discover who I am. Even thousands of miles away. Sensei Dean, itsumo arigato gozaimous.

It's tough that you have to spar with your three stripe blackbelt instructor LAST, after you're exhausted and he's fresh and ready to crush you. Hah. I guess it's a test in adversity. Great video!

Amazing! Thanks Roy Dean. You work is so beautifull!

That was so beautiful people will never understand how moving that is. The multiple techniques he has learned in his journey to black belt. What I would do just to TALK to Roy about my 53yr old white belt ass journey.

You are the best

There is something very specific of Roys students, they move so well and show amazing skills

I love how you can see the system, I learn so much just from watching the beautifull movement. Nice presentation by both the practitioner, his fellow students and full school.

To be honest, this is the type of content that every human being needs to see if they want to improve, this is more than a reward, becouse it cannot be paid with money.

This is the right music for these videos!

Roy's videos are the best I have ever seen at displaying the flow inherent to jiu jitsu. A pleasure to watch them all.

Congrats bro. Great job. I'm purple belt now and hope to be as technical as you are one day. 🤞🤞✌✌

14:50 the way he transitions is so sick

Such a beautiful experience to watch, the flow and techniques were astounding. This is truly a one of a kind video showing the art in a true and raw form. Well done on your achievement

Congrats to the new black belt. Well-deserved promotion🤙

I love these belt test videos. I've learned a lot from you guys. Thank you!

Roy Dean promotion = pure class.

This was wonderful to watch. Thank you, and congratulations Joshua

Very nice demonstration. Applause. Well deserved promotion.

I’ve been watching these promotion videos from the beginning and I’m always left stunned at how good Roy’s guys and girls are! Keep up the incredible work and thanks for the inspiration. Congratulations to the new black belt

marshall artist and talent. Beautiful video of the complexities of BJJ

That spider guard sweep @3:05 to arm bar was beautiful. I use the same sequence and it’s just so buttery smooth sometimes.

Love the respect that breathes in your videos

Very nice démonstration. Thank you.

Great Job Josh!! Excellent camera work, and editing also!!

Thank you 🙏🏾. I really enjoyed watching these techniques.

I remember watching one of these as a white belt and not knowing what was happening but being struck by the beauty of it. Six plus years later as a fresh purple belt I watch with a little more understanding, but just as much in awe. Beautiful

This is pure art.

These videos and its participants put the art in our martial art. Beautiful to watch the human body in such motion.

Fantastic Beautiful A great showcase of Jiujitsu, courage, humanity and humility.

Any of roy deayn's videos are so delightful to watch...excelent picture quality and the details on the techniques...awesome

Congrats on the promotion and the excellent video!! Keep it up! Roy Dean smooth with control of quality techniques.

This is such an inspiring bjj channel, totally underrated, I love it... good job Professor Roy, best regards from Morocco

Amazing, I love jiu jitsu and the form that you shared it. Thanks for this videos!!!

Perfect techniques! Thank you!

These are amazing videos!!! Huge deal

Another Awesome Jiu-Jitsu video!

Well deserved. Beautiful technique.

Can really see the different approach Roy Dean takes. At my academy we never work on mastering the movements properly. Watched some of our guys drilling a long step pass the other week and half of the guys just couldn't actually do the long step movement. They clearly needed some kind of drill or exercise to get the basic movement down and we don't go beyond the forward roll, the hip escape, the technical stand up and the sit out. Looking at Roy's students it looks like they really focus on form and correct movement. I think I would have to go back to blue belt at his academy ( from purple ). There are also some great techniques in the video. I am going to have to go through it in slow motion and steal some ideas. I saw some things that I actually do but haven't been taught.

Brilliant well done, fantastic video

Loved the video.

So smooth, a true dedicated student.

Amazing!! I love this!!
