+1 Gracie Academy (-1 Me)

[Aposiopesis]

So I made a thread about how I had a bad day, went to the Gracie Academy and didn't feel welcome.

I've taken some time and experiences to think about it. I think the worst part of the whole experience was my own attitude. I really was in a shit mood the last time I went there and everything seemed off. It was probably my own perceptions plus possibly others perception that I was negative, which that day I was.

Hopefully everyone who reads that thread will read this. Also, I hope next time I'm thinking the world is against me I will wake up.

You live and you learn. Just find a gym that feels like your place, then keep training, keep an open mind, learn from the mistakes you and others make as much as you can and avoid passing judgment on your training partners and teachers.

Is this the one where Ryron gives you a "limp" handshake and you thought "fuck this" ?

next time you go if he shakes your hand like that, grip as tight as possible and say "whats up limp dick!!"


the respect you crave will be given.

 

[MonkeyNuts!]

this is stupid, you should have just written an addendum to your other thread rather than starting a new one.

the second they read your original thread, everyone realized exactly what you just wrote, that it was you and your attitude. the only person who needed to be informed of that was you, so this thread is extraneous. you are not telling us anything we didnt know already.

Stop being so emo and train.

Good luck. Keep training.

i bet you thought you were doing the right thing with this but in reality, everyone already knew this.

to me, the feeling welcome part of bjj is about staying on the mat and earning respect the hard way and building friendships through that. i never expect to go to a new place and feel welcomed because that's not what they are there for.
