In this episode of BJJ Balance, we kick off our Purple Belt Series and break down what really changes once you hit purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
From the mindset shift after promotion, to the pressure (and freedom) that comes with the belt, to why purple belts are some of the most dangerous grapplers on the mats—we cover it all.
We also dive into:
The difference between blue belt and purple belt skill levels
Why purple belts feel like “experts” but still have gaps
The importance of slowing down your game
Building new weapons instead of relying on your A-game
Open guard struggles, passing development, and leg lock exploration
Coaching, feedback, and how to actually improve faster
Trusting your professor (even when you're frustrated)Plus, we answer listener questions centered around the purple belt journey and what it really takes to level up.
If you're a blue belt chasing purple—or already there—this episode is a must.Please Follow BJJ Balance on all of our socials:IG: @BJJBalanceDiscord: discord.gg/bjjbalanceTik Tok: @BJJBalanceYouTube: YouTube.com/@BJJBalanceKenny IG: @FreakPartyBJJMatt IG: @oss_nation_bjj
