200: From White Belt to Black Belt: How Your Jiu-jitsu Why Evolves

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is transformational. Why did you start training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Is this the same reason that keeps you coming back, week after week, year after year? Contrary to what you might expect, AJ didn’t immediately become obsessed with Jiu-Jitsu. It wasn't until much later, after over a decade of on-and-off training, that she truly fell in love with Jiu-Jitsu. She dives deep into how the physical empowerment and sense of community eventually fueled her passion for the sport. Jen’s initiation into Jiu-Jitsu was a bit different – it started with a simple invitation from AJ at a speakers group they were in together. Initially motivated by the desire to step out of her comfort zone, Jen reflects on what has changed and why she keeps coming back. We explore the impact of Jiu-Jitsu on our lives beyond the mat - from how we’ve used it to boost our self-confidence, handle clients, and trim the dog. Why do you keep coming back to Jiu-Jitsu? Tune in to Episode 200 of Beauty and the Gi and get ready to reflect on your own journey. You might find, like us, that the reasons are multifaceted and always evolving. We want to hear from you! Is the reason you started training the reason you are still training? What has changed for you? How have you evolved on and off the mat? The Highlight Reel (00:00) Intro (02:09) How Jiu-Jitsu improves our relationship with our bodies (04:09) Who and what got Jen started doing Jiu-Jitsu (05:41) Where Jen used mental Jiu-jitsu to deal with a work client (07:25) The benefits of getting comfortable being uncomfortable (09:19) Applying the ‘when in doubt, shrimp out’ philosophy to life off the mat (12:03) It’s not just women that want to learn self-defense (15:52) When Jen thought about quitting Jiu-Jitsu (16:57) Dealing with the emotional roller coaster of Jiu-Jitsu (20:47) The mantra that keeps us coming back after a rough day on the mat   Watch the full video version on YouTube! <a href= "https://youtu.be/oxBznN311ak">https://youtu.be/oxBznN311ak</a>   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

199: Funny Things Jiu-Jitsu People Say

We say funny things to each other when we're rolling around on the mat with our Jiu-Jitsu friends. This episode is all about the head-scratching, giggle-worthy quirks that only Jiu-Jitsu folks truly understand. From proudly showing off bruises to the odd bowing when stepping from carpet to mat-like surfaces, we explore the endless scenarios that make our Jiu-Jitsu culture so uniquely its own. We’ve had some reflective and intense episodes recently, but today we’re steering towards pure Jiu-Jitsu silliness - bruises as badges of honor, the peculiar joy of “heaviness,” and why your friends might think you're trying to choke them during a hug (but seriously, who doesn’t love a good overhook?). So whether you’re reminiscing about your latest gi burns or simply need to hear some Jiu-Jitsu banter when your rolling buddies are out of reach, this episode has got it all. Drop us a message with your book recommendations for our next book club episode. Highlights (02:55) Look! new bruises (05:08) When it’s a compliment in Jiu-Jitsu but not anywhere else (06:47) The joy of getting beat up by your friends (08:23) When you see those speckled bruised out in the wild (11:02) That weird sensation when you feel relief and disgust at the same time (12:54) Helpful tips for not practicing Jiu-Jitsu on your family at Thanksgiving   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

198: What's Possible in BJJ? Setting Realistic Expectations for Your Long Term Jiu Jitsu Progress

How can you get a realistic sense of how much skill you COULD get in jiu-jitsu over the years if you stick with it? This question comes to us from one of our listeners! Let's talk a bit about setting realistic expectations in your Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey. We know it's tricky, but we're here to give you some guidance. You might be feeling overwhelmed, thinking about how much skill you can realistically develop over the years in BJJ. You're not alone – it’s a broad and subjective topic. One of us sometimes struggles to keep her expectations realistic - can you guess who? We’re taking a three-pronged approach to breaking this down in a way that makes sense and feels achievable. Time and Belt Milestones: Where should you be at different stages in your training? Technical Mastery: What techniques should you focus on as you progress? Mental Mastery: How do you keep your mind in the game? Remember, the ultimate key is persistence. Keep training, keep learning, and don’t compare your journey to someone else’s. AJ was a white belt for 13 and a half years before getting her blue belt. It's as much about your mental growth as the physical skills. Stay the course, because consistency will lead you to success in the deep waters of BJJ, forging you into a strong, knowledgeable black belt. Now, it's your turn. We want to hear about your biggest breakthroughs or aha moments in your Jiu-Jitsu journey. When did it happen and how long had you been training?   Highlights (00:00) How can you get a realistic sense of how much skill you COULD get in jiu-jitsu over the years if you stick with it? (03:54) What to expect in your first 6 months as a white belt (02:02) Why this is such a hard question and how we’re approaching it (15:34) What are realistic expectations for YOU? (20:45) Jen’s “aha” moment (22:27) On and Off the Mat Tips (23:52) Indy Base Camp Giveaway details and Roll Model sale info   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

193: Takedowns to Takeaways: On and Off the Mat Lessons from Roll Model Grappling Camp 2024

We share our big takeaways and lessons from this year’s Roll Model Grappling Camp. Get a behind-the-scenes look at how the camp was curated to foster both Jiu-Jitsu skill development and a strong sense of community among women practitioners. This year’s theme was "A rising tide raises all ships," a phrase AJ often employs to emphasize the power of collective improvement. This theme resonated throughout the weekend as attendees and instructors uplifted one another, reinforcing the idea that when one person grows, everyone benefits. Whether you were a white belt or a seasoned black belt, the emphasis was on mutual growth and community support. This year marked a change as the camp featured "homegrown" Roll Models rather than bringing in big-name instructors. With instructors deeply embedded in the community. This approach reinforced the camp's theme of collective growth, proving that the strongest leaders often come from within. Whether you attended the camp or not, this episode is packed with inspiration and actionable advice to elevate your jujitsu journey.

How confident are you in your stand-up game? It’s a question that often goes unasked, but it’s one that can make a significant difference in your Jiu-Jitsu practice.  Do you have a go-to takedown? Are you a guard puller? Understanding and developing your stand-up game is crucial for a well-rounded Jiu-Jitsu practice.  If you don’t have a go-to takedown (like Jen) or guard pull, this episode is for you! We'll explore different approaches to stand-up, from judo-inspired takedowns to wrestling techniques, and discuss how to find the right fit for your style and body type.  This episode is packed with actionable steps to help you feel more confident and competent on your feet.  The Highlight Reel Experimentation is Key: Try out various stand-up techniques to find what works best for you. Consistency Matters: Regular practice and drilling are essential to mastering any takedown. Adaptability: Be prepared to adjust your techniques based on your opponent's reactions and your own strengths. Purposeful Guard Pulling: If you choose to pull guard, do it with intention and strategy, not out of fear or frustration.

186: Do You Feel Pressure to Bring Value When Rolling with a Higher Rank?

Do you feel pressure to bring “value” when rolling with a higher rank? From brand-new white belts to experienced black belts, we all bring unique value to the mat. Seeing the value we bring can be especially tricky when you’re new to grappling. It’s easy to get overwhelmed when you’re learning a move for the first time, then you go to drill it, and your mind goes blank. We’ve been there and lived to podcast about it. For upper belts, rolling with a less experienced partner is a chance to refine their game. Meanwhile, lower belts have the opportunity to receive guidance and learn from the higher ranks. Every roll or drill has value when you approach it with intention. It’s your responsibility, no matter the color of your belt, to find or create value for yourself. This is your journey. The Highlights (00:00) Do you feel pressure to bring “value” when rolling with a higher rank? (03:04) Rolling with new white belts (08:51) Encouraging lower belts (14:47) We all belong on the mats and bring unique value to every roll   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

183: Small Victories, Big Impact: Nurturing an Upward Spiral in Your Jiu Jitsu

We’ve talked about the downward spiral in previous episodes. You know, that moment when you make a mistake, can’t get out of your own head, and then the wheels fall off. We’ve all been there. What if you flipped that concept and started building on the little things you are doing right? This episode was inspired by a recent episode of The Diary of a CEO podcast hosted by Steven Bartlett. He and his guest, Daniel Priestly, talked about the upward spiral and how it had the power to compound your success.  We discuss the power of intention, mindset, embracing the learning process, and celebrating the small wins, no matter what color your belt. (00:00) What is the upward spiral? (01:44) The power of intention (06:12) Finding the small victories and celebrating them (10:06) Magic in the art of distraction (18:37) The power of affirmations and a positive mindset   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

181: When Life Throws You Off Your Jiu-Jitsu Game and Vice Versa

From battling with self-doubt to finding inspiration in the daily struggles, we explore the multifaceted impact of Jiu-Jitsu and life on and off the mat. Life outside of Jiu-Jitsu can affect our performance on the mat. Factors such as sleep, nutrition, and mental well-being play a crucial role in how we show up and our ability to engage effectively. Our time practicing Jiu-Jitsu shapes how we show up in life off the mat. How do we leave a tough day on the mats at the gym and not take it home with us?  We need to have strategies and practices to handle the rough days to reap the benefits of the resilience they create in us.
