Video recording your rolls can be super beneficial for your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey & progress.
This is because reviewing that footage can shed light on the things you aren’t doing right (that you probably weren’t even aware of to begin with) – and thus opens the doors to improvement.
However, some students film their training and then post it to social media.
Should you be doing this as well?
Well, Tom DeBlass has an answer:
It truly depends.
If both people are comfortable with the match being filmed, 100% ok.What I am absolutely not ok with, is someone filming their match, then posting all of their great moments like a highlight video, and leaving out the moments their teammate does well.
It’s not just because of the interpersonal relations either. But also because of the culture of your academy:
The moment you start filming, the training room session becomes a competition.
Many people do not want to compete in their school, they want to train for fun.
This adds more stress to their already stressful life.Respect your teammates always.
What do you think?
Is video recording and publishing your rolls on social media an alright thing to do?
