What is your goal when you go into sparring and how often does it change? Every round/session? Every week? Monthly? Person-to-person? 

What is an obstacle you had to overcome in order to improve your jiu jitsu?

What is more important for jiu jitsu, strength or flexibility? 

What is one win you had in the past week? Big or small, on or off the mats.

I think motivation and confidence can really dip when we stop seeing or recognizing the little improvements we are making in our lives or on the mats. 

What submission do you get caught in the most? 

Question of the week! Is it ever a mental challenge to train hard with someone you are friendly with? How do you find that balance between pushing yourself and others while still being a good training partner? 

Do you have a pre or post-training ritual? What is it?

If you had to credit one singular event in your life to the beginning of your Bjj journey, what would it be? 

Do you think it's useful to model your game after a practitioner with a similar body type? If you do this, please share an example!
