Secrets to Better BJJ: Beginners Should ...

JT & Joey
About this episode

White belts should teach white belts! Controversial statement: JT believes that beginners should be teaching as part of their learning to help them to formalise their thinking. This goes against the grain of traditional learning in BJJ. The boys discuss the benefits of teaching Jiu Jitsu as a white belt. Although it may seem like white belts don't know anything, they can actually strengthen their knowledge by teaching others and this applies all the way up to Black belt. Whether its writing, public speaking, cooking food of running a Jiu-Jitsu seminar teaching and sharing info is the new unlock for you to improve your BJJ.
