What do you look for in a Jiu-Jitsu Coach and gym culture? Have you been intentional in finding a coach and gym that shares a similar moral compass and core values with you? Does it really matter that much?

It matters to us because we want you training, loving Jiu-Jitsu, and getting the most out of your time on the mat. Whether you are a practitioner or a coach, this episode offers valuable insights and perspectives to consider. This conversation goes beyond the mat and to dip into the coaching and consulting that we do in our jobs.

From encouraging and supportive coaches to ones who screamed and yell, we explore the impact of different coaching styles on the overall gym culture.

The Highlight Reel:

(04:29) The importance of finding a coach whose coaching style works for you
