Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Instructorship: the student-to-teacher transition

STOP! If you are looking for a guide focused 100 percent on competition or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) techniques, this book is not for you. But if you are looking for a manual to give you the foundation for becoming a competent instructor and improving your students’ experience, this book might present you with some valuable insights. The purpose of this book is to give new instructors the necessary theory and practical knowledge to avoid common mistakes when running a BJJ program, and it was written based on the combination of my teaching experience and academic background. Over the past thirteen years, via trial and error, I have come to several conclusions on how to optimize certain aspects of BJJ classes for kids and adults.
The path to a successful program can be significantly different from instructor to instructor, and this book compiles my own perspective and personal findings. I don’t claim to have mastered all aspects discussed in this book, but to have recognized some fundamental topics that can facilitate your path as they have facilitated mine.
I wish you a journey filled with success.
