Does your gym do social events? Do you have a BJJ best mate at your academy?
Most Jiu-jitsu academies call themselves teams. But when you go to training are you looking forward to seeing your friends or dreading the impending doom of getting squashed by strangers? JT & Joey outline what Gyms can do to make complete Strangers the best of friends:
- Post Training Chats
- It's not about the Money
- Create Real Social Events
- What makes Culture?
- How to build trust between Strangers
The social aspect is a huge part of what makes BJJ great. Understanding your training partners as a person can make a difference on the mat. Great gyms create space and time for their members to socialise.
