He's been training constantly since then and received my black belt from Renato Tavares in 2011. Over the years he's had the chance to experience jiu-jitsu from multiple vantage points. Everything from competing and training 3 times a day to being injured and feeling miserable because he couldn't roll.He's been teaching full time since 2010 and since then he has either won or helped his students win the Worlds, Pan Ams and other IBJJF tournaments as well as various highly acknowledged tournaments like Grapplers Quest, NAGA, EG., OGC and many others.Extra Stuff:Insta - https://www.instagram.com/chewjitsuYoutube - @Chewjitsu Website - https://www.chewjitsutraining.com00:00 Intro03:42 Name and Tooth12:05 Why Chewy Started Grappling15:05 Jiu Jitsu Brotherhood20:56 Dealing With Athletic Guys26:57 Why Young Guys Have Ego32:22 Giving Back His Purple Belt36:35 Sad Black Belt Ceremony 44:44 What is BJJ56:46 Weird BJJ Gyms01:03:18 Bad BJJ Coaches01:06:56 White Belt Focus01:11:56 The Myth About Strength01:19:42 Blue Belt Blues01:24:27 Can You Promote Too Fast01:32:26 What A Black Belt Should Be01:40:38 Future of Jiu Jitsu01:45:49 Training When Your Old01:50:08 Chewy’s OnlyFans#mentalhealth #bjj #bjjlifestyle #jiujitsu #jiujitsulifestyle #adcc #wrestling #judo #chewy Need a chat?
