I thought I was too old to open up a school, however with this approach I could see myself coaching into my 90's. There seems to a lot of older people in attendance. Comments or advice?
There is no difference in application depending on the outfit you choose to wear to class. Each will provide different ways to approach and solve problems, but the problems are the same and the goal of the game is still the same.
Is drilling worth doing because it imprints basic movement mechanics into the brain? So when it is met with resistance, the brain has an idea of what to do? Or possibly more wisely to drill the technique briefly and then enter into the live games?
There were a couple people from Houston if I remember correctly. On the Discord, we have location channels to find people in different areas of the world!
Been trying to find a coach to help st the school that isn’t an ego driven wanna be cult leader…. I should have come there to poach a coach. Man I missed it hahah
I think that there is a balance needed, I understand these people feel very strong about there new method, nothing wrong with that, but you have to be open minded about all ways to train, but if you get so hyped up and say nah this is the be all end all, and now your closed minded and just like people were in the old methods of training, gotta take the good parts of all ways to train, I like this approach and I’ll take the good , without forgetting the past, I like learning moves that I like from talented grapplers, and I also like just finding a way and being creative. Eco guys stay open minded !
Best practices is an undeniable concept. It isn't a matter of open mindedness. If you have a sound argument for the old method or a completely new method of your own, make it. Reality decides what is true, not opinion.
The jiu-jitsu community is so dumb. The arguments for CLA are so strong that it's silly to suggest otherwise. The amount of literature (i.e., peer-reviewed journal articles) is only growing. People are using this model for most professional sports at this point. Even many Olympic coaches have been doing this or have adopted the model.
@@KodiakCombat Best practice is not under every circumstance the best practice. Did you never got a great result from a very specific detail or information someone told you in a seminar? Sometimes I got instantly some great game changers just from one technique or information I received from world-class coaches and could instantly benefit from it (e.g. arm in guillotines from Josh Hinger). So I think top-down information has its place as well as bottom-up
We are very open-minded. One of the key goals of our community is simply investing our time and energy into learning and advancing the level of coaching and practice design in our sport.
@highsoflyify no, you didn't. Until you implemented it under live conditions you got a hypothetical benefit. You're essentially conflating hypothesis with theory or theory with practical use, depending how you use the term "theory."
Does any one wonder why its a ”ip” lecture of ecological approach? Why not an ecological approach to improve teaching? Maybe there is still something that is better shared by ”ip” approach :-)😊
Keep these coming please 🙏
Definitely more to come!! Check out the website story of the camp for the full list of videos and sessions from that weekend!

amazing content, keep it up
Appreciate the support! We're glad you enjoyed it!! ⚒️🐙
How would you use this approach in the Gi aspect vs No Gi only?
This would be more beneficial as a whole if we can use it in both aspects.
There is no difference in application depending on the outfit you choose to wear to class. Each will provide different ways to approach and solve problems, but the problems are the same and the goal of the game is still the same.
Is drilling worth doing because it imprints basic movement mechanics into the brain? So when it is met with resistance, the brain has an idea of what to do? Or possibly more wisely to drill the technique briefly and then enter into the live games?
Anybody know the guy at the 27 minute mark from houston???
There were a couple people from Houston if I remember correctly.
