This White Belt is Getting Turned Down for Rolls at his BJJ Gym

If you’re a newer BJJ White Belt you may have experienced a situation where maybe someone refused to roll with you. And especially in the gym it can feel awkward and seem like a negative thing. This is the situation one of our friends has run into when he’s trained in different martial arts.

He says he’s gone to several different martial arts and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gyms, and he feels like there are cliques that develop and he gets left out. These gyms talk about being a family but it doesn’t seem that way to him.

In this video I explain why your gym may in fact be like a family, in many different aspects and why you don’t always want to interpret someone not rolling with you as a bad thing. Our gut instinct is to take it as a bad thing, but it’s not always the case.

Hope the video helps you if you’re in this situation or at the very least gives you an idea to chew on.
