🖤 He had no idea.
One minute he was rolling like it was just another Saturday…
The next, @eganinoue — jiu jitsu legend and world champion — walked through the door.
Coach Owen has spent years building @rollingwatersbjj into something more than just a gym. It’s a home for people across Lake County — a place where kids gain confidence, adults find strength, and the community comes together.
This weekend, his students gave something back.
We secretly flew in Egan from Hawaii to surprise Coach with his TWO STRIPES on his black belt — a major milestone that marks not just skill, but dedication, leadership, and impact.
His reaction? Pure shock, raw emotion, and a gym full of love. 🥹
After the surprise, Egan taught a 2-hour seminar in the gi (traditional martial arts uniform), followed by a community BBQ catered by the delicious @406_bbq to celebrate.
This was more than a belt promotion.
It was a thank-you to a coach who continues to pour everything into his students and the people of this valley.
Congratulations, Coach Owen.
You’ve more than earned it. 🤙
Thank you @glacier_bank and to everyone who pulled together and made this happen! 🙏
