Are My Training Partners Being Rude or is That Just Jiu Jitsu Culture

[@BernardoFariaBJJ]

Have you trained at a place where training partners were being rude?

[@PeterJames143]

Yes that is correct. You have to check several places and make sure your place is cool before you sign up at a gym.

Culture above everything.

huge honour for me to makey this comment

[@homelessmans2cents675]

You guys were great to me on my first day. Star struck 🤩 when I was leaving and shook your hand. Thank you 🙏

Again laying down the knowledge. Hyper aggressive schools or training partners suck. Scourge of the art.

[@anonymous20237]

Couldn’t agree more! Not only should we be polite, but we are each others’ instructors. More advanced belts teach me and I teach those who are less advanced than I am…

Some people will cost you $50k- 70k worth of medical bill. Just watch out

Sometimes you get a series of bad luck scenarios where you end up rolling with different people being overly aggressive or losing themselves. That is, once a session someone does something silly, and then the next session someone else goes into kill mode for no reason, and then the next someone explodes with a move and then you almost get injured during each of those rolls. And it sucks. When they happen consecutively over a few classes it becomes tough to trust training partners. These series of rolls might come out of the blue at a great gym and with friendly people. It becomes difficult to then go back when every class feels like you might get injured.

Great message ❤️

[@plnmbjj]

That depends, I’ve trained with guys that if you do your best, like with a high intensity, not using brutal force but using your most effective technique they consider this as going too hard. And what would be okay for them is to go slow and not try that much on guard passes, submissions, etc, believe me or not, and I am not talking about injured or old people

I had my first contact with Jiu Jitsu when i was like 14 or 15, I did it for 1 month or so, bought a Gi etc. And stopped because the teacher was a RUDE ASSHOLE, and i don't say that lightly about anyone, he would humiliate his own daughter (and other people) in front of the class for very minor stuff. So I stopped. Then at 25 i gave it another go, and being doing it non stop for the almost 3 years now. I wish I saw a video like this back then

[@theratrace2153]

you better tell us whats the school name where the coach was an asshole!

[@sven-number]

I need to roll with duck tape on my mouth.

[@arenamananeraswgoh141]

Define rude....maybe he thinks they are rude for tapping him And there is a fine line between aggressive and just right

[@bryanedds8922]

Mostly they're egotistic and don't care what happens to you. Almost every gym has at least one. Some gym it's all of them.

My gym is a family.

You gotta be Kermit the frog for Halloween

[@thejayman4976]

Maybe he’s the problem. Overly aggressive new guy!

[@bryanedds8922]

Disagree. If you have an overaggressive noob, you just lock them down or fake an old injury then notify the coach. You don't beat reet ard with reet ard.
