The Pacific Northwest has had a long history of laying the foundations of Martial Arts in America. From the 1800's when Seattle was one of the two main ports of entry into the U.S from Asia (the other being San Fransisco), to being one of the centers in the development of modern MMA, this area continues to be a hotspot for Martial Arts training and competition. And at the forefront of Northwest competition is a test of endurance and skill known as "The Revolution".

Promoted by Liberty Events and Promotions, LLC, The Revolution Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Submission Grappling Tournament is the creation of the husband and wife team of Jeff and Gina Bourgeois. From it's beginning in November 2006, this tournament is held three times a year and showcases the best jiu jitsu practitioners and grapplers from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Canada. The latest tournament featured 460+ competitors of all weight classes and skill levels, from age 5 to adult, competing in Gi and No-Gi matches. Starting in 2011, The Revolution will expand to 4 tournaments a year. Liberty Events and Promotions, LLC and Jeff and Gina are to be congratulated and commended for their efforts in putting on a world class event.
