Be Open

Lots of people will impact your BJJ game over your career. They won’t always be your instructor. My head instructors over my career absolutely had a huge impact on my trajectory, but I also learned a lot from guys who weren’t the face of the gym. I learned a lot by just rolling with people and ending up in weird places. Be open to everyone’s knowledge, no matter what someone’s rank is they have lessons to give, and maybe the contributions you make to each other’s game will create something revolutionary?
