How do you judge your progress in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu when your gym doesn’t give stripes?

This is the question I received from one of the viewers.

His BJJ gyms doesn’t give stripes out and he’s wondering how do you judge progress when stripes aren’t a part of the equation.

In this video I first share that the belts and stripes in Brazilian Jiujitsu are simply symbols.

Like the word “Tree” which is a symbol to represent what we call a tree. Now a tree is a collection of cells. It’s an organism with leafs, bark, etc.

The word TREE is simply a representation of what it is.

And the belts and stripes are simply symbols to represent progression and skill.

I also share how I personally didn’t even receive a stripe until I was a Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

Along with this idea I also share some helpful tips on how to judge your progress in BJJ.

If you’re in a similar situation. I hope this video is useful.

In this podcast we speak to Lachlan Giles about his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu experience.

Lachlan has a unique perspective in BJJ as he is a high level competitor and was also a Physiotherapist who now teaches full time.

He became a high level BJJ practitioner at a time when BJJ was relatively unknown in Australia.

He’s also known for being the coach to one of BJJ’s upcoming stars, Craig Jones.

During the podcast we talk about everything from proper training and rest to using DVD and instructional series to learn techniques.
