57. Namtaow Panpat - Overcoming failure, the language of Jiu-jitsu and being a part of everyone’s growth.

Had a great time doing this with my good friend Namtaow, whom I’ve known for close to 7 years now. It’s amazing to see his growth as a friend, father, doctor and jiu-jitsu practitioner.

Stuff we talked about:

Connecting through BJJ
Learning who you are (and who others are from) rolling
You can’t be the tough guy in jiu-jitsu
Giving back to the community
Gato Studio and jiu-jitsu in Chiang Mai
Watching everyone grow and get promoted
The metaphor of BJJ
Music is for everyone = BJJ is for everyone
Being remembered in a positive way
Being a part of everyone’s growth
Being a good partner
Being a responsible higher belt
Countering the counter
Struggles through covid
The importance of finding a good jiu-jitsu community
You will never be White Belt again
Overcoming failure quickily
There are no lies in jiu-jitsu
Viewing sparring as a sport
Accept the failures and move on
Everyone lives different lives
You are important

Thanks for listening,
Aaron

56. Urmish Parekh - Competition, aggression and the game of Jiu-Jitsu

I’ve made a lot of interesting friends from jits and Urmish is one of them. We talk about the balance between strength and technique, his struggles of being the ‘big guy’ at the gym and insights from his first BJJ competition.

Stuff we talked about:

Gi vs. Nogi
Playing the game of ‘Jiu-jitsu’
Technique > Strength?
Being the ‘big’ guy at the gym
Asking the right questions
Being ‘aggressive’ and playing to your strengths
Finding an enemy and having a goal
More on our BJJ journey
The boys at GATO
His first competition
Sticking to the plan
To compete or not to compete, that is the question.
Getting my Blue Belt
Refining what you already know
Learning how the pieces move
Urmish’s tiny (but strong) legs
Changing nothing
Jiujitsu is indeed ‘not gay’

Oss,

Aaron
