Description

This week on The Gi Spot, Rach and Kaz tackle a coaching classic that continues to haunt white belts and spazzy blue belts alike: “You need to slow down.” But what does that actually mean? Are you moving too fast? Thinking too fast? Dying inside too fast?

With humor, empathy, and a few perfectly timed roasts, the hosts break down what coaches really mean when they say slow down—and why it might be the key to unlocking your jiu-jitsu evolution. From breathing techniques to positional awareness (and all the panic-gripping in between), this episode is a warm hug and a gentle wristlock for grapplers trying to chill the hell out.
