Better Learning For BJJ: What do you act...

JT & Joey
About this episode

Episode 343: Are you struggling to remember what was taught in class this week? When coaches teach a different technique and concept every week, it can be hard to keep up and retain the information. BJJ as a body of knowledge is constantly growing and evolving with specialised techniques and strategies for both Gi and No-Gi grappling. JT & Joey dig deeper on what can help and hinder your learning at Jiu-Jitsu and why spending multiple sessions on one position or a sequence of attacks and defences can really help you achieve a good understanding and real learning.
Everybody learns differently but giving people more opportunity and greater exposure to skills is key, this might require a different approach to the way coaches are teaching week to week. Joey explains his recent experience having wins with his students learning back control and JT talks about how being competitive and not making mistakes can actually mess up your learning. When you struggle to remember what's being taught in class its hard to build your game and make progress, this is where you could benefit from choosing your own personal BJJ project and working on it consistently.
