Making Changes for Continued Evolution

The

AJP Tour is a work in progress. With every new event in the season, our team of officials gather data for the improvement of the athlete/fan experience. To build a fair, safe and fun environment in our events is our ultimate goal. The 2019/2020 season has seen unparalleled evolution in how the events are run. After successful trials in the ADGS Rio, in November 2019, the new scoring system was fully implemented at the Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Tour Abu Dhabi. The feedback from athletes and fans was overwhelmingly positive. The 2019/2020 season has also featured another groundbreaking novelty. The Abu Dhabi Queen of Mats series arrived in Rio and solidified in Abu Dhabi. We now have crowned queens in the lightweight and the heavyweight division. The event format, straight to the point and all around thrilling was immediately adopted as one of the fans’ favorite. The future is bright and promises even more thrills for all Jiu-Jitsu lovers. The success in each stop of the AJP Tour is the result of the dedication of devoted professionals on and off the mats, as well as behind the scenes. The AJP team works relentlessly to make improvements in each of the stops the tour makes, big or small. We make the commitment to you that this work will continue and offer better events to all our participants. We once again would like to express our gratitude to His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of UAE Armed Forces, for his continuous support of Jiu-Jitsu. His Highness has always been a source of inspiration for us and we are fortunate to have him on our side.

INTERVIEW

Fearless Newcomer Ana Rodrigues shares her story as she awes the world with golden debut in the black belt division Words: Ivan Trindade | Images: Ane Nunes

When you think about Ana Rodrigues, you think about fearlessness. The young black belt exploded in the world stage beating much more experienced opponents. At only 55kg, Ana fears no one and avoids no challenge. In her first year as a black belt, she took control of her weight class in the AJP Tour and made it to the final of the first ever Abu Dhabi Queen of Mats lightweight bracket. Even as newcomer, she cannot be overlooked in any list of top contenders in the black belt division today. In this exclusive interview, she shares her story since the beginning and reveals the secrets of a career aimed for the top.

Jiu-Jitsu World: You came up to the black belt division with important results in the 2019/2020 season. For those who are just getting to know you, tell us how your Jiu-Jitsu journey begun. ANA RODRIGUES: I started training when I was 13, but since I was 8 I knew I wanted to be a professional athlete. I saw them as superheroes. I am a perfectionist and for me that’s what an athlete is. It means being the best version of oneself. Before JiuJitsu, I practiced other sports, but no other sport gave me the feeling Jiu-Jitsu gave me. I remember I fell in love with the smell of the mat and the academy. I was an aggressive kid in school and Jiu-Jitsu helped me to put that energy to good use. What made you decide to turn Jiu-Jitsu into your career? First the fact that I always had a lot of admiration for athletes. Second, the fact that being a professional athlete allows you to experience incredible feelings. I started out at 13 and as early as 15 I knew I was going to dedicate my whole life to it. Since them, the feeling has not died down. On the contrary, it only grows inside me.

20

Who were or are the most important people in your Jiu-Jitsu journey so far and what were the main lessons they taught you so far? I am a mix of everything I have lived. I learned a lot from all the places I trained at. With Guigo, I learned a lot there. At Atos, André Galvão taught me to do more than everyone else and Angélica Galvão told me that being a woman means everything will be harder and not easier. Isaac is teaching me to a be a better person. The entire Project Dream Art teaches me a lot. When you have a group of people working together to improve themselves you add a lot to your growth. The 2019/2020 season was the first one as a black belt. What expectation you had coming in to compete against the sport’s biggest names? How’s been so far? The year of 2019 was my first one as a brown belt, but since I was a purple belt I felt like a black belt. So, when I started competing against black belts in the AJP Tour, I felt right at home. Since I was a blue belt I would pay attention to the black belt division to see in which level they were. I studied for that moment a lot, so it was no surprise. I always think I could do a little better. I prepared for this moment for 8 years, so I will work hard to achieve all I can. In the first lightweight Abu Dhabi Queen of Mats, you caught more experienced opponents by surprise and made it to the final, finishing second. How was the experience of competing in such a qualified bracket? Were you satisfied with your performance? I hated my performance at the Abu Dhabi Queen of Mats. I got to the final, but not the with the level of performance I wanted.

On the other hand, the ADQOM was very important to give me an understanding of my personality as an athlete. I believe that’s vital for a better performance. So I can say that I am a much better competitor today that I was at that day. It motivated me to work a lot and improve a lot. It was a great lesson to help me find out who I am as an competitor. I maybe caught other athletes by surprise, but I knew I was going to be in the final, regardless of being a black belt for only two months before that event. What advices would you give to a girl who is only starting to train Jiu-Jitsu and dreams of competing and winning in the highest level just like you do?

It’s hard to give advices for people who don’t know what they want or for those who are not willing to put 100% of effort in achieving their goals. Not only for Jiu-Jitsu but to life in general, if you know what you want all critics from all the people who do not believe in you will turn into good things. I don’t care if female Jiu-Jitsu does not have the same attention as men’s Jiu-Jitsu. I will go out there and achieve what I want. I will make things work by myself. As a very active competitor in the AJP Tour, how important do you think it is for a professional athlete to have an environment like the AJP Tour, which awards competitors for their performance and results? The AJP Tour events are very important for the community. I wish athletes gave more importance to the tour. The level of professionalism is unparalleled, the rule set is challenging and the fact that they award athletes is awesome. I have no complaints. They are always innovating and always challenging the athletes. It’s a pleasure to compete on AJP Tour events.

AJP Athlete’s Ranking

How to build your route to the top Understanding the AJP athletes ranking Words: Rodrigo ValĂŠrio, | Image: Ane Nunes

28

Jiu-Jitsu World


The New AJP World Ranking Format Based on rules of the Olympic Charter, the Qualification System aims to ensure that the principles of universality, performance, country, representation and gender equity, remain the focus for the AJP participation. In addition, a number of other technical principles and rules have been established to provide a basis for the development of the AJP Qualification System. The ranking is the most fair way of awarding the effort and the talent of each athlete that signs up to one of the AJP tournaments throughout the year. It is also a great incentive for more and more athletes to take part in as many events as they can. The next pages will explain how the ranking works and the new changes. Have a good read, put on your gi and go out there to add points right away.

How does the ranking work and what are the main changes?

The raking period will be in general for 24 months. The Seven (7) best results during next season (12 months’ period) will count + one extra (8th) result from the Continental Pro + the result of Abu Dhabi World Professional Championship, starting from May 1st, 2019. The points for each individual tournament will expire as follows: • From May 1, 2019 to April 30th, 2020 the points will count 100%. • After May 1, 2020 the points will be reduced to 50%. • After May 1, 2021 the points will be reduced to 0 and not count anymore. The dividing line is the first week of May 2020. Example: If tournament is held in first week of May 2019, the points are reduced to half on the first week on May 2020 and expired in the first week of May 2021.

How to add points in the ranking?

You add points in the ranking by at least participating in one of the events of the AJP calendar (the current calendar started on May 1, 2019 and ends on April 30, 2020). There are five kinds of events in terms of how many points you’ll get: ADWPJJC; Abu Dhabi Grand Slam; Continental Pro; National Pro; International Pro;

Here are the number of points athletes will earn on each event depending on their performance.

Number 23 - 2020

29


How many rankings are there?

The AJP has divided the ranking in several categories. You can say that the two most important are male adult black belt and female adult brown/black belt. Each belt has its own ranking starting with white belts. You also have a ranking in the male master division, an academy ranking, continental and country rankings. There are also No-Gi rankings. Here are a few examples of how to count an athlete’s points.

For what else is the ranking used for by the AJP? The Federation will use the ranking to decide your position on the bracket of the ADWPJJC. It will also use the ranking to invite athletes to compete in the ADWPJJC. In addition the ranking will be used to select fighters for the new Abu Dhabi King of Mats through Continental Ranking and Grand Slam Placements. What else do you need to know about the ranking? Yes. There are a few details you need to know about the ranking. If you are alone in a division, you won’t earn points in the ranking. If you change belts during the season, you lose the points from the previous belt. The same happens if you change age divisions during the calendar. Due to the academies ranking, the AJP will not change an athlete’s team during the same season. Another features to be implemented are that athletes will get points for not only placements, but also for each matches won. For example, athletes can get a certain point for a gold medal, but will also earn extra points for each win. So if athletes win a really large bracket that could lead award more points than smaller brackets. On top on that athletes will be awarded even extra points for different type of wins, for example winning by advantage or by submissions.

30

Are there any more novelties in the ranking for the 20192020 season? In case of equality of total RANK points, the higher ranking will be decided by:

1. The highest sum of the current points from World Pro. 2. The highest sum of the current points from all Grand Slams. 3. The highest sum of the current points from all Continental Pro, followed by National Pro, International Pro and Regional Championships. 4. The highest current points from one single event, then, if needed, the second highest, and so on. 5. If the competitors are still equal the decision will be taken by the number of matches done by the fighter through the season, followed by the fastest submission(s) or who made more points during the matches in case of World Pro Qualification.

ABU DHABI QUEEN OF MATS

Gabrieli Pessanha

A lot of people doubted me. They said I was too young, only 19. Well, now I am the Queen

Gabi, the Ruler Teenager Gabrieli Pessanha beat the odds to overcome the toughest of oppositions and become the first ever ADQOM heavyweight champion

Jiu-Jitsu World


Words: Ivan Trindade | Images: Ane Nunes, Ivan Trindade

At only 19 years old, Gabrieli Pessanha set out to conquer the world. From the humble community of Cidade de Deus (City of God), in Rio de Janeiro, Gabi made her way to the top of the podium in almost all AJP Tour events she took part in the past seasons. The high point of her career so far came in Abu Dhabi, on January 17, as she entered the heavyweight bracket of the Abu Dhabi Queen of Mats with 5 other very skilled and tough opponents: Nathiely de Jesus, Thamara Silva, Kendall Reusing, Samantha Cook and Martina Gramenius. Here’s how the bracket played out.

Number 23 - 2020

67


GROUP A In the opening match, Gabrieli Pessanha started her journey to the top of the podium with a comeback in a tough match against Thamara Silva. Trailing 0-4 after two minutes, Gabi found a guard pass and a mount to turn the score to 6-4 and also finish with a rear naked choke near the end. On Round 2, Gabi was back on the mat to take Martina Gramenius’ back and win her second match with a 4-0 lead. The result meant that Gabi was already in the semifinals as group champion. On Round 3, Thamara Silva sped up her pace to pass Martina Gramenius’ guard and reach the full mount. With a 9-1 lead, Thamara secured the win and her spot in the semifinals.

GROUP b Opening the group, Kendall Reusing used her pressure game from the top to build a 3-1 lead on Samantha Cook and celebrate the win. Round 2 saw the debut of Nathiely de Jesus, who used her well-known guard game to finish Kendall with a kimura lock. Group B wrapped up with Nathi back in action against Britain’s Samantha Cook. A choke from the back was the final note for Nathi, who made it to the semifinals as group champion. Kendall secured the second spot because of her Round 1 win over Cook.

SEMIFINALS Nathiely de Jesus vs. Thamara Silva Nathi needed less than one minute to finish the match. With a lightning fast back take, she rolled her way to a choke from the back to beat Thamara and write her name in the title match.

SEMIFINALS Gabrieli Pessanha vs. Kendall Reusing Well-known rivals in the 95kg division of the Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Tour, the Brazilian and the American met up once again in Abu Dhabi. Usually a tough and strategic match, this time Gabi managed an early back take to start building the 11-0 lead that secured her spot in the final.

Jiu-Jitsu World


THIRD PLACE MATCH Thamara Silva vs. Kendall Reusing The fight for a spot in the podium was intense. Thamara Silva gave no rest for Kendall and used her guard game to unbalance Reusing and build a 4-2 lead with two sweeps. In the end, Thamara celebrated the win and her presence on the podium.

FINAL Gabrieli Pessanha vs. Nathiely de Jesus

Jiu-Jitsu World


Every time they meet is a thrilling occasion. Gabi and Nathi are at the top of their game and have been ruling over the heaviest division of women’s Jiu-Jitsu for a while now. In Abu Dhabi, it was no different. The two rivals were very cautious during the eight minutes and allowed almost no opportunity for the other to score. One sweep by Gabi secured her the 2-1 lead that she carried all the way to the end of the match. After the final second went by, Gabi was able to celebrate the biggest title in her still young career. “There was still a lot of people who doubted me. Said I was too young, only 19. Well, now I am the Queen. I want to thank God and all my family, friends and teammates for all the help,” said the newly crowned heavyweight monarch.

LIFESTYLE TIPS

The Healthy Jiu-Jitsu Traveller Manual How to keep good habits wile on the road during the competition season Images: Ane Nunes, Morguefile

A Jiu-Jitsu life is a life on the road. Traveling is as much a part of an athlete’s routine as training, competing and dieting. This kind of lifestyle can be hard on the body and mind, specially when we make wrong choices. In the next two pages, you will find quick tips on how to stay in line and be sure you are ready to perform when the time to compete comes.

1

Plan Ahead Planning meals can help to prevent overeating by ensuring meal choices aren’t driven by immediate hunger. If planning ahead is not possible, keeping healthy snacks on hand will help to tide travelers over until the next meal.

2 Be Smart about Snacks Eating healthy snacks doesn’t have to be limited to travel time. People can also pack snacks that they can eat in the office between meals, which will prevent them from getting unhealthy options from vending machines.

88

3

Avoid Empty Calories People traveling should limit calories from alcohol and juices, and avoid sodas as well. Drink plenty of water instead. Seltzer (sparkling water) is another good option for hydration.

Jiu-Jitsu World


5 Learn to Improvise

4

Never Skip Breakfast

6

Get a Fridge

Although people may not have access to a kitchen when they’re on a trip, they may be able to improvise their way into healthier eating. For example, people who buy food at a nearby grocery store can cook a small meal with chicken or shrimp and vegetables in the hotel room’s microwave, or make hard boiled eggs with a coffee pot.

It’s important for people to start the day off right with breakfast, which helps to keep the metabolism running and staves off cravings later. But breakfast does not have to be an elaborate affair—even a quick bowl of cereal with fruit is enough to get the energy needed to get going.

Asking for a refrigerator allows you to keep healthier options at hand. Hit a local grocery store for breakfast, fruit and snack items.

7

Use the Hotel Gym Don’t knock hotel gyms because you can get a great workout done in them. Even your regular motel will most likely have a treadmill and some dumbbells. A super easy circuit is to do the following movements for one minute each: run, squat, push press and deadlift. Use weights that are challenging, but doable for the minute. Repeat the circuit two to three times.

Wake up Early While on a trip, you can have a demanding schedule, so it’s best to get in a workout first thing in the morning. Waking up 30 minutes to an hour earlier can give them enough time to complete an exercise routine before the day starts.

NEW AJP TOUR

The new and improved AJP Tour Here is what is changing in the competition format for the 2020/2021 season

WHAT CHANGES?

Words: Ivan Trindade | Image: Ane Nune

The Abu Dhabi Jiu-Jitsu Pro (AJP) has announced important changes to the competition format for the upcoming 2020/2021 season. The updates aim at making the season even more thrilling for fans and for athletes. The new format will guarantee a more competitive environment in each and every event of the tour, from local tournaments to all seven editions of the Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Tours. The first big change is the limitation of ADGS events to purple belt, brown belt and black belt divisions only, both in the adult and Master 1 age groups. The entry system in ADGS Tour events has also been updated. Athletes will have to qualify through points acquired in local events in the National Pro, International Pro and Continental Pro series. Another big change is the creation of rankings by weight classes instead of a single ranking for each belt color. At the end of the 2020/2021 season, the best athlete in each weight class will receive an award. 90

AJP announces series of updates to the rules of the game in the tour Words: Ivan Trindade | Image: Ane Nunes

The Abu Dhabi Jiu-Jitsu Pro Tour (AJP) announced the adoption of a new scoring system on all its events starting January 2020. The changes will also be valid for the 2020 Abu Dhabi World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championship, scheduled April 11-18, 2020. The new scoring system replaces advantages and penalties with points. Athletes will be awarded 1 (one) point whenever they reach a position previously considered worth an advantage. In case of penalties, every time an athlete is penalized by the referee, their opponent will be awarded 1 (one) point. The occasions in which advantages and penalties are signaled remain unaltered according to the AJP Rules Book. The AJP also announced changes in match durations and match result decisions. All matches, including finals will be 5 (five) minutes long. In case of a tie after the normal fight time, the athlete who scored last will be declared the winner. Matches that end in a 0-0 tie or matches in which athletes only scored points due to penalties to the opponent, there will be an extra minute with golden point (athlete who scores first wins). In case of a tie after the extra

NO MORE ADVANTAGES OR PENALTIEs • Advantages are worth 1(one) point

WHAT CHANGES? 92

• Penalties are worth 1 (one) point for the opponent

minute, the match will be decided via referee decision. On brown belt and black belt divisions (Adult and Master 1), the AJP will allow coaches to request one review of score or movement per match using the Falcon Eye video system. If the review changes the original call by the referee, the coach will keep the right to call for another review during the match. If the review does not change the original call by the referee, the coach will not have another chance to call for a review during the match. All changes apply to blue belt, purple belt, brown belt and black belt divisions. The new style of scoring was first tested in the 2019/2020 season of the AJP Tour, on November 2, at the Abu Dhabi King of Mats super matches in Rio de Janeiro. At that time, fans, athletes and officials gave an overwhelmingly positive feedback to the new scoring system, which allowed much more movement in the scoreboard and made matches much more active and thrilling. The Abu Dhabi Grand Slam Tour Abu Dhabi, on January 16-18, 2020, was the first event to adopt the new scoring system to all divisions.
