Even though the topic is a tricky one, today’s article will be short and to the point, answering another question some people have been asking me.
How will I feel if I lose students because I stepped away from the academy in Pelotas?
Talk - How will I feel if I lose students?
Living in Florianópolis
I believe everyone has been following the previous videos of our Talk series, but if you just landed here out of nowhere, I recommend watching the video where I explain Why did I move to Floripa? for some context and to understand why I might lose students.
Losing students
When I decided to leave Pelotas, I was already aware that some students trained with me and that, with a change of instructor, they might prefer to stop training or to go train somewhere else. I’m at peace with this, and so are the instructors on the front line. Speaking of them, have you seen the video where I tell you Who are the Top Brother Sul instructors?
Of course we wouldn’t want to lose any student, but anyone who doesn’t feel comfortable training at our academy has no reason to stay on the team. Everyone decides what’s best for themselves, and all we can do is thank them for the time they spent with us and move on. Unfortunately, with the pandemic we haven’t been able to focus on training because of all the precautions required, but we’ll be back to normal soon.
Questions
So, did this clear up another question for you? If you want to ask anything, send it in the comments or on social media!
Oh! And stay tuned, because in the next video I’ll post the follow-up to the De La Riva guard sweep video lesson, where I already mentioned that your opponent can defend the movement and that we have a second option.
