I Suck At Jiu Jitsu Show

In This Episode (Part 1 of 2) Host Josh McKinney(@thejoshmckinney) breaks down the role of a BJJ coach, which includes being an instructor, motivator, and mentor. We also discuss how to become better coaches, by learning something new every day, finding inspiration, and understanding the difference between a growth and fixed mindset. Your students will do what you do, and bad habits get passed down just as quickly as good ones. We highlight the importance of building an environment that you and your students love by introducing Jiu-Jitsu conversations that change a gym's learning environment. In Part 2 Josh shares some of his favorite Jiu-Jitsu conversations, including positive talk between a coach and student, stealing an idea from Lucas Leite, and discussing Jiu-Jitsu with Chris Paines. Then In the FAQ for Jiu-Jitsu coaches, Josh answers questions like, What is the most important thing your coach has ever taught you? How could a coach introduce new training methods to students? What is your favorite way to teach a Jiu Jitsu class? How do you handle bad students? and A LOT MORE!
