I avoid most dojos run by asians because they think they are ājedi.ā Terms such as master or grandmaster are cringe. No need to use those terms.

BJJ and boxing are different. I donāt think I called anyone who trained me anything other than their name. Imagine calling someone Master
Itās ridiculous. I was at no gi worlds this week and whenever I heard āprofessorā yelled out I winced. That one kills me for some reason. Iāve never heard someone in real life want to be called master

-a coach a master /sinsei
-call practice, āclassā
-
call a gym a dojo
-
wrestle in pajamas with belts
Leave and find another gym.

Yeah thatās very cringe. I couldnāt do it. I probably couldnāt even roll there with that cringey atmosphere either. Iām surprised it was No Gi. Seems like something the pajama wrestlers would say

Bow to your sensei, student ā¦respect my class!
No hate. The gi/ martial art larping shit " id just Teh Ghey. "
And the sociopaths that run those Mcdojos try to run them like a cult and all of the pajama wrestling trained monkeys worship them for the dream of shiny colored belts.

For the record. I think GI BJJ is a very technical sport and I respect those who compete in it.
For the cult sociopath senseis and their cult dojosā¦I mock that side of the sport.
