I Want To Switch BJJ Schools 

I trained at a school for almost 11 years (only one I had ever trained at) and I left about 5 months ago where my best friend of 44+ years is the instructor. Had a few conversations about promotions and what I needed to do and finally after 2+ years of not getting promoted I had had enough. I texted him told him I was leaving and thank him for training me and didn’t even get a response, STILL haven’t heard a word from him. I don’t regret my decision for ONE SECOND. If it gets to a point where you’re not having fun LEAVE. My 2 cents.

One thing I prefer about Judo is the standardization in grades. When you're trying to be competitive, you want to get to as many clubs as possible. BJJ schools are closed which is a shame!

I got a tricky one for ya I got my buddy Matt into training a year or so ago, his brother is a brown belt at a different gym (I can’t stand the guy) and they didn’t really talk. Jits is starting to bring them together so not only am I a broken family fixer lol but now they’ll even roll once in a while together at my garage gym or each others. He now wants his older brother to belt him up instead of our coach. I keep telling him not to do it but it because his bro goes to a different gym but looks like they’re going through with it. Weird spot huh

So do you have to go in and tell your instructor or gym your leaving or can you just leave without saying anything as soon as your membership runs out ? I honestly think this is the way I would do it I mean it just seems so much easier that way.

Wow, you look just like Tyler from Dude Perfect.

I'm thinking of moving school because there aren't enough big people my size. Not in any way the school's fault. I just am not getting the right physical feedback. It's very hard to know if I did something technically right or just overpowered my friend.

your content is very nice. I want to talk with you?
