“Stay calm” sounds easy—until you’re folded into a human pretzel, breathing through someone else’s armpit.

Awkward positions are just “problem-solving with worse lighting”.

**If it feels comfortable, you’re probably not learning.** đŸ„‹đŸ˜… â˜ ïžđŸŽâ€â˜ ïž

We are start by sitting
Listening

No matter how far you’ve come or where you are in your journeys, we wait for instructions, watch demonstrations and try to commit to memory

Jiu Jitsu isn’t the easiest sport to conquer. It’s humility. A constant learning approach and it levels you

Who said Mondays were boring hasn’t tried a new sport

That crazy weird feeling when you enter a new space, meet new people and begin learning something so different from anything else that you’ve tried

So kudos to those that completed our beginners course and also to those who are new to mats

Stay the course. Get to know folk. Try and fail and try again. In the middle of it all you find a pass here and a technique here which makes it worth it all the while exercising đŸ‘ŠđŸ»

In grappling, your grips are connections.

Controlling your opponent
Disrupting movement
Creating pressure
And dictating where your opponent can go

But don’t just hold on to the Gi
Understand what you are controlling, why you are controlling it and what comes next

It’s not a gym without you

I could have built some walls and laid the mats and kept it clean and quiet

But that’s how you have the heart of a gym
An empty shell

Without you
Without the team
The learning, drive, sweat and sideline chats
