Absolutely. But I get why people prefer smaller classes. Especially if you have a great instructor that can work with you closely. But throughout my 16 years of training BJJ I’ve come to realize that getting different looks from different sized people really accelerates the process. Especially if everyone has different games. Best of luck! 🤙 keep training!!!
I guess if the academy wants to build a team mentality then they’ll wear the same kit. Players don’t turn up to Manchester United training wearing whatever they want. Agree that some take this way too seriously though and adds to expense especially when changing ‘teams’.
It’s a team based academy. Uniform is uniform. Represent your team proud on the mats when competing Imagine watching the NBA and watching your favorite team wear whatever tf during their game lol
Blue, Black, Pink, and camouflage Gi's stain the white mat which is incredibly costly to replace. I also speculate that the Mendes Bros don't want to have to deal with the pink/camouflage gi guy and his "individuality" aka cry for attention.
Might be to keep the mats from being stained. It doesn’t look like they enforce the same Gi rules, just color of Gi.I see Kingz, Shoyoroll, Elite etc. I went to a gym before where you were forced to wear the gym’s own branded Gi’s and they sucked.
We can make zero money, have less fame than competing in ADCC, and know in our hearts that two no gi schools in Austin are better than the rest of the world. Wear combat pijamas folks. Say osss. Bow.
Flo apparently not making road to worlds vlogs this year ibjjf gonna have to do it
0:32 I just herniated a disc watching that
That stack pass at 31 seconds was 🥴
Yeah, fuck that lol
My vertebrae would fall out of my ass
I love that Rafa Mendes still mixes it up with his top guys.
Great videography❤
Assassin academy. Good luck AOJ!!
02:09 beautiful armbar entry by Tainan
Powerful AOJ 🤘🐸🤘

Eu vou estar aí algum dia.
Sonha
É isso aí rapaz💪🏼🥋
0:34 this good looks good
Who left Flo to start making HQ videos on the IBJJF site? 😉
1:02 pouca força kkkkk
That's way too many students for 1 class session
This is why I don't like seminars. I've gotten more out of smaller simpler classes.
To have that many people to train with is a gift!! Especially if you are training for worlds
@tfajsh that makes sense when you put it like that. These are high level competitors, not average Joe's like me lol

@@tfajsh thanks!
I’m glad our gym doesn’t all look the same. All white. Geez. We can wear whatever gi we want. Training is training. Doesn’t diminish

Yeah it looks like a cult. It usually means the coach has to demand respect rather than earn it.

Os caras cobram uma nota e montam uma academia com um espaço desse?? É brincadeira...
The instructor making everyone wear the same school uniform is what we call a warning sign.
A warning sign for what?
They don't have to wear the same school uniform, the Gi just has to be white. No Gi is a different story, I think.
I'd cut my pinky off to train at AOJ everyday.
They are not the same, they are just white, due to the all white training mat. So relax nerd
Yes, AOJ is a very bad gym…. The hell you talkin bout boi
Everyone in a white Gi is odd

Don't learn bjj, can't work on street fight or any fight outside
What should you learn?
He's going to say Akido
Dalpra would take your life rambo
Jiujitsu has saved me in a street fight, along with a solid standup of course. Gotta cover all grounds imo
@_realone915 same here. I've used it in real situations, and it's kept me safe. I was just curious what this person would say is better.
