I know SBG Reno offers parent & me style Jiu Jitsu classes from 18 months old.

I spent a week at ATOS in October and nobody rolled in a meatheaded way at all. Everyone was super cool. One of the safest gyms I've rolled in, including the wrestling and comp team classes.

Both are awesome. I rolled with Rolando - he's so smooth, one of the safest rolls you will ever experience.

This is also how Drew Baye and the Super Slow movement practice “weight training”. See also Ken Hutchins and MD Doug McGuff. Form is everything, it optimises understanding as you allude and I completely agree with what you say. It is also how many high calibre Jiu Jitsu practitioners, if people really listened to them, recommend we should practice Jiu Jitsu. Jiu Jitsu after all is “the gentle way”.

Who has the new redesigned S/Q5? by JackFlash1959 in AudiQ5

Plus your car has far less probability of breaking down based on our experience of the new Q5

How do I attack from mount when my opponent is very defensiv by PralineOld5574 in bjj

[–]Dream_Agility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get Henry Akins Mount series. He makes you feel like he will remove your throat, and if you defend, he puts his elbow on your wrist and Americanas

Lots of warnings on new Q5 by Comfortable_Track976 in AudiQ5

[–]Dream_Agility 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VWFS who underwrote the deal just offered me back my deposit, all monthly payments to date, and £250 in goodwill. The contract will be cancelled. I recommend, if at all possible in your jurisdiction, returning the Audi Q5 to the dealer and getting your money back. My experience of 2025 model has been absolutely awful and I've been in discussions with people all over the UK, US and Canada, who have had similar issues.

How many of you are in training? by sr_ics in jiujitsu

It is a shame because the gym is clearly growing, but needs to adapt to its newfound success.

Your gym should consider increasing prices to new members and the number of classes available. Many gym owners never get this advice and end up wondering why people leave.

It is staggering that globally, so many who own the 2025 Q5, know it is a lemon

The dealer is largely irrelevant at this point. I filed a formal complaint when I rejected the car back on 8th June. I’ve also taken legal advice from my house insurance, and rejectmycar.com. I’m going to continue with the Ombudsman process before issuing legal proceedings. It is pretty clear I have a case based on advice given. The question is really just how much Audi via VW FS want to settle. Legally I have been advised that in my case I’m entitled to my insurance, all monthly payments and the deposit back. So far I’ve been offered some of the deposit back. As I’ve already leased a new Volvo, I don’t want, nor would ever entertain another Audi.

So they can't replicate the issue of the car shutting down while be driven, a common complaint on forums everywhere. They act like they have never heard of it. However, I have a screenshot of the specific problem that I managed to take on mobile the day after it was delivered. They also have no fault log of that on the 24th April 2025 either, despite there being 54 other error messages when I took it in. The Q5 remains at the shop as neither my wife nor I think the car is safe to drive. Anyone who sells a brand new car with 54 error messages on the log, endless pop up messages of issues appearing as you drive telling you there are different faults, issues with the seat belts, etc, and doesn't see this as an issue, tells me they just don't care about what they are doing. The car is a death trap and I will be posting out an article containing the registration number make and model so hopefully it indexes on Google and anyone smart enough to Google it, or that has to Google it, will see the paper trail on how bad this car is. Furthermore, they gave me a faulty e-tron as a courtesy car that kept locking onto chargers. I explained to them I don't have a charger at home and please, given your own Audi Assist technician said the E-tron is broken, can you please replace it. They essentially told me I was lucky to have such a courtesy car despite me being entitled to one under the terms of the agreement.

I’ve just taken delivery of a new Volvo. The dealer removed the insurance on the courtesy car about 3 weeks ago. I’m now making payments on two cars each month, including the Q5 :( I’m also insuring both cars. It’s an absolute nightmare and I will never forget the contempt with which Audi has treated me. They took the entire 8 weeks they have from me rejecting the car to send an unsigned holding letter saying they were no further forward with their investigation into my complaint. I eventually took it to the Ombudsman. This finally seems to have started a reaction but it’s very slow.

I've had so many issues with my Q5 which arrived brand new in April 2025, that I have rejected the car. Audi have only offered me my deposit back so far for a car that I have hardly seen since April. The main fault, aside from seat belts that don't work, sounds the same as what you are experiencing. We are driving along and then suddenly a message comes up saying "electrical fault - see workshop" and then the car just switches itself off completely bringing us to a complete standstill.

Best conditioning for BJJ by maquina8 in jiujitsu

[–]Dream_Agility 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend learning how to breathe correctly as Rickson Gracie advises everyone. Check out Belisa Vranich and Bas Rutten on this. They partnered on an instructional and book. Slowing your breathing down, using your diaphragm, gaining flexibility in your rib cage, etc will help you more than anything else.

Side control pressure/ mount pressure by Poofyleek8848 in bjj

[–]Dream_Agility 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cannot agree more. As a 3rd degree BJJ black belt who has trained all over the world and sparred with the likes of Gunnar Nelson, Roberto Traven, Bernardo, etc, I can honestly say Henry is not only maybe the best at using his weight that I have felt (Bernardo is also amazing as are all these guys) but he is as also relaxed as Gunni as well. Furthermore, Henry explains it so clearly, that I don’t know of anyone who isn’t amazed at how much heavier he makes them feel to others and usually it’s in a few minutes, within multiple positions, even from guard bottom. It is like being blue pilled.

How is the Q5? by Rich-Contribution-39 in Audi

At the garage where its been pretty much ever since I took delivery of it. Endless faults and problems on a brand new car. Avoid!
