Weekly Questions are here!

I'm curious to know what's the most important principle or concept in Jiu Jitsu you you have implemented and would recommend to everyone?

Feel free to share your tips and experiences with us in the comments below. We can’t wait to hear from you all!

What is the most challenging part of Jiu Jitsu?

Share your thoughts, comments and ideas. I’d love to hear from all of you guys. 

What class would you create?

If you made a class, what would it be? What would the objective be? Who would want to go?

I think a “Combat Jiujitsu” class would be pretty cool. When you introduce the open palm strikes, you really have to focus on control and positioning before you can think about submissions. A wise man once told me, “if you’re doing jiujitsu correctly, your opponent won’t be able to strike you.” I also like the old school vibe of “You can’t do anything I don’t let you.” Plus it seems to be pretty traditional. I’ve heard stories of dojo storming in the old days where they would make the blue belt control the challenger and submit them by slaps because you had to pay for lessons to witness the submissions. 

What class would you want to attend

Question of the week.  How Importantly do you feel it is to stay healthy and physically strong to continue your jujitsu journey? I personally feel you have to maintain good health overall mentally and physically in order to progress.  What are your thoughts??

What do you like about your favorite training partners? What makes them your favorite?

If you didn’t have to worry about work, family or any other personal obligations, how many times a week would be your ideal number of days to train? 

Time for the question of the week! Do you have a game plan for your training sessions? For me more recently I’ve been finding myself working on certain positions that I’m trying to get better at so I will put myself in those positions as much as possible during rounds. How do you plan your training sessions? Let me know below! 

Question for the week. 

It's open mat, you're warmed up, you've picked your first victim....err partner, the timer's about to start.....

What music do you want playing? 

Or do you just want silence to concentrate? 

I'm all over the place with my music but during open mat it's gotta be up tempo. 

Also, I like the volume up but not too high.  I need my partner to hear that I'm talking trash and/or serenading them.   😜

Weekly Question

When you want to learn something new and turn to videos, how do you go about finding quality instructors/techniques?

***Bonus, if you have been training for 5+ years has your method of searching out quality changed over the years??
