If you could travel back in time to your first Jiu-Jitsu class and give yourself one piece of advice, what would you say?
I’d tell myself that your ability to go slow demonstrates your level of control and overall mastery of the martial art.Â

Time for our question of the week.
Do you think that taking a step back and just sitting on the sidelines and watching from time to time can help your game? Any time I find myself dealing with an injury or just need to give my body a little rest I always decide to just sit on the sidelines and watch what’s going on on the mats. I feel like that’s where some of my biggest breakthroughs have come from…just taking a step back and watching the bigger picture. It’s never fun when I have to sit out due to an injury but I know I can still come in and learn something just by watching. Let me know what you think in the comments.Â
