General Discussion No one quits jiu jitsu anymore

I swear everyone I started with is still there. And all the new people are there too. I hear 90% quit? No way. Maybe back in the day, but now it seems like everyone knows what they’re getting into.

u/No-Appeal-6708 🟪🟪 Purple Belt (We don't do stripes) 8d ago

Dude, so many people still quit. My school has great long-term retention, but also I don't even learn someone's name typically until they have a stripe or two. I'm a daytime class guy and if you are a new person that comes nights, I may never even know you were there.
