Tsunami Martial Arts Center: Medals at the BJJ Tournament at the RMK Academy

Athletes from the Tsunami Martial Arts Center (Pervouralsk, official SUMA International / ISUMA representative) competed in a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament at the RMK Academy of Martial Arts. On March 7, 2026, Gi division bouts were held among adult athletes. Two of our athletes reached the podium, giving very strong competition to highly experienced competitors in the 35+ category. This once again confirms the high level of training of our athletes, who are only 14–16 years old. We are confident they have a bright future ahead, and major arenas will hear of them again. March 7 results (adults, Gi): • Pavel Vyalkikh — 2nd place (silver) • Artyom Zakharov — 3rd place (bronze) On March 8, 2026, the second day of the tournament was held for juniors, boys, and children. Tsunami athletes shone on the mats once again. March 8 results: • Artyom Zakharov — 1st place (gold) • Pavel Zakharov — 3rd place (bronze) Every participant gained invaluable experience that will motivate them to keep training. Congratulations to the athletes and coaches!
