Miscellaneous
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu within itself is a tough sport. Someone is laying on you. Someone is going to sweat on you, likely in your mouth. Someone may hurt you, either unintentionally or intentionally. Someone may fart on you. It happens. All that to say: this is not necessarily an easy martial art to just come in off the street and be comfortable with. If you've got anxiety with any aspect of joining a BJJ gym, it can be tough. If you're injured, perhaps even tougher. If you're a woman, that can create anxiety within itself. The GD's talk about all the anxiety filled moments and situations they've been in and seen and how best to adjust in the moment and long-term solutions to feel comfortable in your gym. At the end of the day, the goal for most of us is the same. Don't quit! Be sure to check out our sponsor, Top Mount Apparel, and all the upcoming tournaments they'll be at.
