2 things that I discovered were: 1) The gym near me was good, but that particular gym location always reminded me of the bad times in that town for some weird reasons. So when I train BJJ, I don't want to think about that even on the way to the gym. 2) School that teaches techniques, but also puts things into context.

I map searched a decent sized radius from my home. Did every free trial whether it was one class to one week. What mattered to me was the curriculum and environment. No regret on my choice!

Great content as always! In finding the right school for someone with no knowledge of jiu jitsu, would you recommend that the school has a curriculum similar to Gracie University, where they focus on the 36 core positions? I came across an affiliate of Gracie University, as well as a Relson Gracie Academy, and they only have a fundamentals course. However, I am not sure if that is as step-by-step like the Gracie University gym. I appreciate your response.

All jiu jitsu comes from the same linage, no? It just depends how many layers are between you and that “source”
