Should you have to give up your rank when you join a new gym?
If you're a Blue, Purple or Brown Belt should you have to restart over if your instructor thinks that you don't know enough about their system?
What do you think?
In this video I answer that question.
The question comes from someone who has been training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for a number of years and received his Blue Belt from a legitimate affiliation. I did not list any of the details of this person or his training to keep it private for him.
Because of work he's had to move all over the place and hasn't been able to train consistently at one Brazilian Jiujitsu gym for a long time.
Recently he started training BJJ at a new gym and really likes the instructor and the gym overall.
The problem he's running into is that the instructor wants him to start over because he doesn't know his system as well.
Our friend feels that this is a bit unfair and doesn't want to restart his BJJ journey all over again. He adds that the frustrating part about this is that he's doing very well during rolling against the instructors students and feels fine with the techniques he's showing.
In this BJJ video I share a story about how I personally gave up my Purple Belt when I came to a new gym to train Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. It was a new instructor who didn't care for me or felt threatened by me.
I've also had students who I didn't quite think were up to par with our Blue Belts. And I share whether or not I made them give up their rank. If you watch my BJJ videos you probably know what I did.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy the video. And if you're in the process of changing BJJ gyms. I hope this video is helpful to you or gives you some insight into any problems you might have.
Thanks!
