This week on My Jiu Jitsu we engage in conversation with Alejandro Perez, a 1st Degree Black Belt and owner of Forge Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (Jean Jacques Machado Affiliate). Alongside him, we welcome back Coach Anthony Rico (Brown Belt) IBJJF champion. Beyond the physicality, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu thrives on its community spirit, fostering connections among individuals from varied walks of life. Within the walls of Forge, there's a refuge where the shared enthusiasm unites us, momentarily shielding us from the distractions of the world outside. Our episode delves into the vital components of nurturing the right gym culture.
