Just kidding! Communication is important, but some of these are poorly disguised cop outs or false compliments. (13 years in and I still have had cauliflower)
Upper belts, Coaches and anyone who’s been rolling for a while, what’s your favorite cop out you’ve heard?

What can you do, really?

In Bjj (and life, relationships, anything really) how do you really know what you can do, what you can accomplish, if you never get near failure?

Often times that fear of failure is what is holding us back. On the mats, people often think that tapping means failure. Tapping doesn't mean anything. You got submitted. You tapped. Who cares? Tapping isn't the failure you think it is.

Not Pushing yourself past the first sign of discomfort?
Not continuing after a set back?
Quitting when you're doing something you've never done before?

Thats failure.

Technique Tuesday!

I've heard this called about a dozen different names, keylock being the one I use most of the time, but spice bag being my favorite. Let me know what you call it in the comments!

I’m not a zookeeper

I run a gym full of people.

Good people. People with full lives.

You’re not a lion/shark/ GOAT.

You don’t even have to be great to train here.
You do have to pet the dog though.

Curious?
Open House June 20th 12:30-3:30pm
4 FREE Intro classes to pick and choose from.
