Brazilian Jiu Jitsu thread

[Virtual Blue]

I'm sandbagging enjoying what everyone says is the best / most fun belt for a while longer due to my location

Just ran into someone from your club at globetrotters winter camp btw Virtual Blue. And someone from a club I visited when I was in Wellington, Aotearoa. The BJJ world is so small!

Really? Past or present - cos my club has gone a bit Soap Opera of late.
It is indeed a small world!

I've found BJJ stuff regardless of affiliation does all sound very corporate. I haven't trained in a good while now as I've just struggled to even keep training YGM at the moment.

stupid belt systems and instructors acting like gurus. too many of them.

Oh shit, really? Sorry to hear that, hope it gets sorted without too much more drama.

Present as far as I know - we didn't get to chat much, I just saw their team rashguard and asked if it was [club] in [place] coz I know someone there. I might let them out themselves if they want to though since I've just remembered someone else there mentioning some kind of gym drama or something and that their instructors didn't know they were at the camp or even in that part of the world

ETA - I just saw on FB on who it is!

Nah, this one won't be ending, and all the core members have already left.

Good to see you're still rolling!!
