BJJ? More like BMJ.

>feeling good enough to start again
>bjj/judo place on my way home from work
>stop in to check the place out
>purple belt running the class
>tell him I am recovering from a serious injury and want to see if I am well enough to do things again
>he glosses over it "yeah well that stuff happens, like this guy over here"
>points to a blue belt walking around on crutches
I don't want to go there. I had legitimate concerns and he disregarded them like broken necks are just a day at the office.

Been grappling for like 4-5 years, never heard anything like that.
Some of those little guys are tricky and fast as fuck. Their tiny limbs also tend to fit through spaces (weakness in your structure) that bigger guys' limbs wouldn't fit.

I've had issues regarding to safety within martial arts or any sort of psychical contact sport. There's been some teachers that really just don't give a shit. I usually leave the club because I feel they don't have enough experience/aren't right for the job to be teaching the class, his number one priority should be making sure his students feel comfortable in a pretty aggressive (sometimes) environment.
Watch out for shifty teachers, there's a lot of idiots out there who don't know how to look after you and will probably cause you more damage than you're thinking you will take.

Second day in my BJJ class about 3 weeks ago I got kneed in the face. Deviated septum. Kept rolling. Next class was two days later.
>Hey I got a deviated septum last class lets take it a little slow
>No problem
Yesterday I got kneed in the face again. The tip of my nose feels lose and there's a little cracking. No noticeable deformities and no pain.
People are generally pretty good about injuries at my gym it seems. But unless it's like a broken leg or a ringworm people tend to not be little bitches and just roll even if they take it a little easy.
Nothing wrong with working fundamentals.
>tfw practising a takedown on my partner
