The Purple Belt Diaries

💜Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Judo 
💜competition, coaching, and training 
💜stories, vlogs, and humor
💜grappling, combat sports, martial arts

I'm Desiree Lussier-Levesque, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu coach and competitor, Judoka, and US Army veteran, with a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology and Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience. On this channel I share  advice, stories, vlogs, and instructionals, often with a humorous twist, related to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Judo, and living the hobbyist grappling competition and coaching lifestyle as a BJJ purple belt. I post one long form video Fridays on a weekly to bi-weekly basis, depending on what training allows, and occasional shorts.
