I've been training for a little over a year now and noticed something recently...
I really love my school and instructors. But I have very little to compare them to.
I perceive their level of BJJ understanding to be truly "special"... and I'm wondering how true that really is?
For instance, the way they communicate and teach (almost) "invisible" application of techniques and using connection / leverage *without* strength etc
Do you feel the same way about your school? Like you would be missing out if you weren't training specifically where you are now?
Background:
This thinking came about because I found myself justifying *not* moving to a new state that I'm seriously interested in... instead choosing to stay where I am mainly because I feel my academy is irreplaceable and I wouldn't get as good instruction anywhere else.
Curious to hear your thoughts.
My suspicion (and hope) is that most people feel this way about their school and we are all just really in love with the art.
Not to say your school isn't special but maybe not as special as you FEEL like it is?
