Good Stuff for white belts

Really enjoyed this. I have listened to this numerous times now and it sparks that fire to keep pushing through the white belt and get a better base for jiu jistu

Relatable and inspiring!

I loved this short and inspiring little book. I’ve been training jiu jitsu for two years now and the concepts he talks about are helpful to me, as I’m still a beginner but also have some understanding of the game. He covers a lot in a short amount of time. I think it helps me love jiu jitsu even more, as he put into words sone of how I was already feeling but couldn’t quite make sense if it myself.

Good principles

I like the analogy , not so much focus on actual strategy , but it was a good concept i did enjoy this audiable

Good information

Great listen for anyone who’s starting out or even on the fence about trying out a martial art or in need of self help.

GOOD. ♟️

Highly recommend this book.
A must read for NEW white belt Jiu-Jitsu players.

Oss! 🥋

See the Forest

It is so easy to get hung up on a submission or sweep etc. but thinking about the ‘why’ behind doing what we do is so much more advantages. Great insight from a great writer and fellow jiu jitsu player.

quick and simple

I enjoyed it. it's quick simple and straight forward. it's very basic but it puts technique into perspective

Great listen

Awesome to listen. Easy to follow long and not super long. Definitely will listen again.

Great philosophy on getting your journey started

I enjoyed this very much, and now I am looking at my training in a new way and plan to take notes and listen to this frequently in order to improve

Listen to this before you even start!

Well written, insightful, and inspirational. This is a book you can keep going back to again & again and always take away something new. Shorter than your average podcasts & packed with immediate applicable advice on how to enter into the world of jui jitsu. Class still seems like and endless matrix of black holes, but this certainly provides a map and compass for your best approach through your whole journey. His other book is enjoyable as well.
