BJJ Gym Politics: Old School Mentality vs New School Approach

Do you train at a traditional Jiu-Jitsu club? Or do you roll at an Academy with a modern take on BJJ? There is a conflict between what is considered a "Traditional" Martial Arts approach to teaching Jiu-Jitsu and what some may call Modern Bjj. If your preferred training style is different to your Academy's teaching philosophy you might find yourself caught up in some Gym Politics. 1.) Loyalty vs Flexibility 2.) Tradition vs Effectiveness 3.) Self Defence vs Modern BJJ 4.) Dictator vs Democracy 5.) Martial Arts vs Athletics There are Pros and Cons to both approaches but working out which one you are prepared to accept and work with is key to getting the most out of your Jiu-Jitsu journey. ---------- ACCESS THE BEST STRENGTH + FLEXIBILITY PROGRAMS FOR BJJ 📲 https://www.bulletproofforbjj.com/ Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for fresh videos!
