John and Matty discuss the importance of learning the basics and building your knowledge of jiu jitsu from the ground up.
First a big thanks to the students who jump on Zoom and continue the learning. And a spray to those who haven't :)
We chat about the history and progression of the Jiu Jitsu Commune into what we now know as Higher Jiu Jitsu.
“If a man knows not to which port he sails no wind is favourable
— Seneca
+ "Soon enough new students found us and began to stream onto the PCYC mats. I promised them they could learn jiu jitsu here, and they reciprocated by placing their trust in me as Coach.
Class after class they’d show up and I’d teach what I thought were the most relevant techniques. They were picking up the tricks, but it became obvious that these students needed to begin with the basics."
+ We’re not limited by the curriculum, just liberated.
For when you have your bases covered, you can move in different ways. You can venture as deep, as far, and as wide as you like, content in knowing that you’ll always come back to where you began.
It’s how you’ll get better not just at doing jiu jitsu, but understanding how it works. This is the focus, and once you start to get it, it’s jiu jitsu that’s at your beck and call. You can do it in your own way, safely, with effectiveness, and for a lifetime.
A fun chat, hope you enjoy it!
