Well, it is a kind of mission for me to take care of the BJJ legacy of Nicholas Hunter Brooks
(of course I am not the only one, but I define myself as a loyal part of his lineage).

His widow, Shelley, was promoted to BB a few days ago and she has a profile at beltchecker now.
I know her personally since she was a Bluebelt from many seminars and workshops when she was with Nick and sometimes she had their two little boys with her.
She was promoted by Ed Ingamells at the grappling institute/GB and Ed himself is more than legit. - I joined workshops with Ed as I was a Bluebelt by myself.

Shelley will provide more evidence on her profile during the next weeks, but nevertheless:
I vouch for Shelley and her legitimacy!
