DM BJJ results & upcoming events
Last weekend we had 33 competitors at DM in BJJ 2024. With a total of 24 gold, 16 silver and 5 bronze medals, Arte Suave won the best academy trophies in both the no-gi and gi adult categories.
We where happy to see so many from our club competing and testing themselves. More so than the results, we are happy to see people get competition experience and challenging themselves, as well as supporting these tournaments.
There is a lot work going on behind the scenes, to put up a tournament, and to see people have fun and get some valuable experiences through the vehicle of jiu-jitsu makes it all worth it! Win or lose, you put a bit of yourself out there when you step on the mat, and we think everyone should try it at least once, to see if it is something they enjoy and learn from.
Well done to everyone who participated and congratulations on all of your results! Here is a full list of everyone from Arte Suave who made it to the podium.

PinArte Suave Summer Games + post training BBQ
Join us for another rendition of our famous Arte Suave Summer Games!
Sign up with a partner, or come alone and we’ll pair you up or let you compete solo—everyone’s welcome. We will have a variety of games and challenges designed to bring out your competitive side while having a great time.
Note: this is not a crossfit-type competition, but just a lot of low stakes fun and games, where everyone can compete.
Afterwards we will fire up the grill and have a BBQ, where everyone is welcome. We provide cutlery, but you must bring your own drinks and food for the grill.
This will probably be the last BBQ of the season, so if you missed out on the others, don’t miss this one!
PinMMA Galla and Nordic Championship
Don’t miss out on MMA galla 30th and 31st of August!
Arte Suave has three fighters on the card. William Mørck and Abd Rahman will be competing in the Nordic Amateur MMA Championship this Friday and Saturday. We’re rooting for them to bring home the victory!
Additionally, Frederik Strauss is set to fight in his 8th professional MMA, Saturday. Don’t miss out on supporting our fighters and watch some great fights!
