This is why i admire Dan Inosanto so much he began his BJJ study at the age of 59! Apparently he logged so many hours with the Machado bros that he got his black belt in 3 years! He recently received his 3rd Dan in BJJ! Legend!

Do you think that having trained since the age of 9 under judo, fma, kenpo, shoot fighting, silat, jkd, etc. and reported to have reached instructor status for over a dozen+ styles (& created a few of his own) might have been a slight influence?

Or that his name & brand might not have given him a slight edge leading up to selection for a grading? Or how about special teaching consideration from the other so called masters who grew up watching him & bruce lee battle it out?
I can just see it...

"Oh thats ok Im happy to keep teaching the black belts until I pass my grading"
