[@Elohim100]

I was doing Muay thai for several years, eventually got moved up the line. I had no trouble with letting newer guys go ahead of me or holding pads for newbies. My coach would lose his temper at the new guys who couldn't grasp certain things but I was always chill and didn't mind helping people. Eventually I left that gym because of how some of the experienced people acted. Was quite toxic.

[@jstChase]

This is how it should be. Coaches that can't teach without losing their tempers, shouldn't be coaches. Especially to newbies. The beginning of any martial art is the most stressful. If you're just getting berated, then you're not going to learn and give up.

You show up and get treated like a bottom feeder with things like always being at the back of the line, but the longer you stay (and pay the gym money) the higher rank you’ll be and the more you can treat other people like bottom feeders and feel superior.

We all started as white belts with that said why don't we teach them the rules so they don't make the same mistakes we all made when we were white belts! I know your all made mistakes right? Oss 🤙🏽

[@RekkiR]

Just remember, every black belt started as a white belt. Any gym where they make a white belt stand at the end of a line, is a gym you dont need to be at. Find a gym where a white belt can ask a purple belt to roll, and people see belts as a sign of who should mentor who, vs a totem pole.

[@tylerward8333]

It's about seniority and nothing more. At my gym, that would be a 16 year old black belt. The same guy that I train with 4 nights a week... If you think where you stand is a problem... your ego is the issue on hand, not the order in which you stand in line.

[@RekkiR]

@@tylerward8333 no, my ego isn’t the issue. My whole point is that there should be no egos based on belts. If you disagree, then glad I’m at my gym and not yours.

[@bobross4447]

We don’t have a belt system cause I go to an mma gym we only roll no gi, but in every single jiu jitsu session the instructors encourage the beginners to roll with the experienced guys, I’ve learned so much from rolling with guys better than me. If you’re gym only wants you to roll with people your level then they are basically holding you back
