How can you elevate your Jiu-Jitsu faster? Take notes!

This episode is packed with actionable practices to enhance your retention, refine your skills, and improve your overall Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

We are big believers in the power of taking notes and keeping a Jiu-Jitsu journal to improve your Jiu-Jitsu.

This episode was inspired by a recent blog post from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach Ray Casias.  He shares seven critical points on why note-taking is indispensable for any BJJ practitioner. 

Whether you're a beginner eager to accelerate your learning curve or a seasoned practitioner looking for new ways to refine your techniques, this episode offers valuable perspectives and insights to make your training more focused and effective.

We are sharing creative ways to take notes and keep them organized so you can find them when you need them!
