Anyone take Brazilian Jiu Jitsu? I've studied it for over 11 years. I'm lucky I found something that I really love and stuck with. It's not for everyone.

So whose my fellow forum grapplers?

Gracie-Barra on-off for the last 6 years. I've been training pretty seriously for the past few months. Got my start in wrestling, though.

Sounds like you're pretty locked in. Did you have to submit the proper paperwork before beginning? Is it expensive? Some gyms are pretty pricey and can leave you really tapped out.

Judging from what you've revealed about yourself on other parts of this site, I'm guessing you really suck at it.

lol...thats the best you have? I must suck because you dont like me

The best thing about BJJ is that you cant talk about how good you are you prove it on the mats.

No, it's because you seem whiny, passive-aggressive, and none too swift to pick up new information. But, you never know...

 

[ClosedCaption]

Well you know what they say about assuming. You can message me sweetheart if you want a one on one but this is about BJJ.

And no, I wont roll with you. You seem to attached as it is baby

 

[Unkotare]

And no, I wont roll with you.

That's just as well.

Whats up BJJ friends!!

Im going on 10 years. 8 with Relson Gracie affiliate. Now with Rafaelo Oliveira in Charleston, SC.

Did no-gi my first 9 years, won top 3 in division 8 times at NAGA, 1-1 in MMA.

Then...a year ago, I put on the gi for the first time. ADDICTED. MMA and no-gi are fun, but the gi is awesome, I love it. Just got my 3rd stripe white belt. Although I can hang with the purple belts due to no-gi experience, that gi still gets me, and I love learning all the details of it.

My instructor says I'd be blue belt if I knew all the collar chokes a bit better, and some of the sleeve control sweeps that you cant do in no-gi. Im working on it, and LOVE it.

Question- how do you guys deal with pre-tournament nerves and jitters? Always been a problem for me.

Not a bjj guy, but you kill the nerves with visualization.

8 times at NAGA OSS!

I love No-gi but I'm being told (and finding) there aren't a lot of places that only do no gi and if they do its only 1 time a week. Once I rolled the first time once a week wasn't an option.

So I'm getting a Gi soon. Is there any difference you've found with the weave (gold, pearl, single etc) or don't worry about all that?
