Holy shit, I'm used to training at a big school with lots of students of various ranks. No matter what class, we always warmup, work on basic stuff like shrimping and other bjj movements, technique then roll. Today, I was in a class full of white belts at a new, super small school. I thought they would follow a similar structure. I felt so bad for the white belts, because they were doing some really hard movements. These were 2nd day white belts and stuff. There was no shrimping or other movements to gradually get you into bjj. The had mid 40s lady drilling front flips and shit, like a vaulted somersault. Ijust feel sorry for the white belts.
At the start of class, she told me she doesn't think she could do it anymore. I told her BJJ is super fun and easy and you just have to have fun and relax. After this shit, I think i know why she may have that perspective. There's hella old ladies at my other school. And any white belt, regardless of age, we always go through basic, slow movements, sorry guys, this is bullshit.
Just had to rant to someone
P.s coach didn't help walk the white belts through the technique like most coaches would. Maybe I'm just spoiled, but dat was some bullshit
