Should Your Attitude Determine Your Belt Promotions in BJJ?

I recently spoke with a fellow BJJ coach who recently denied a young guy a promotion to Purple Belt because of his attitude. In particular the young Blue Belt gets very upset when he loses during training. To the point that it negatively affects his training and the environment around him.

And the coach was just curious whether or not I thought this was a good idea and my thoughts on it (from BJJ coach to BJJ coach).

So, in this video I share my thoughts on whether or not I think the coach made the right call with holding the promotion.

I hope the ideas I share in the video are useful to you whether you’re a coach or just someone training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

    Awesome content.
    I had a pretty similar situation at my gym where I had to give a ultimatum to one of my young students because of is attitude.
    He end up living in the end.
