Dima discusses starting Jiu-Jitsu at 23/24 with the goal of being the best, but then repeated injuries—beginning with a knee injury from an electric chair in 2019—shifted him from competitor to Coach. He describes how trust from Jozef Chen led to opportunities at B-Team, why he chose B-Team after advice from Cam Donnelly, and how he builds athletes by distinguishing skill development from performance training. Dima then discusses the importance of creating a strong “Geist” (spirit/culture), applying pressure without getting tired, using ecological/CLA frameworks inspired by Greg Souders, developing Linus von Schenk into a world champion and how studying wrestling resources like the Russian Olympic Team training and John Smith was part and parcel of the prep work going into ADCC Asian Trials.Dima is currently also planning to open a gym in Berlin called Mat Skills.Timestamps-----------------------------0:00 Sponsor Shoutouts2:09 Meet Coach Dima2:34 Starting Jiu-Jitsu Late4:19 Injuries led into Coaching9:31 Trust With Jozef13:35 Why B Team15:31 Leading The CJI Camp18:44 Berlin as a Base &amp; Gym21:51 Building Culture: The Geist25:48 Developing Linus28:20 Wrestling Systems30:19 Coaching the Why31:10 Wrestling For Grappling32:07 The Coaching &#39;Eye&#39; &amp; Environment33:36 Wrestling Study Resources35:28 Low Single Adaptation37:29 Create Don&#39;t Copy38:27 Ecological Training AKA CLA41:26 CLA Done Wrong44:42 Coaching Skill Development49:21 Pressure Without Fatigue50:56 Motivation &amp; Geist55:25 Black Belt Meaning56:04 Gratitude-----------------------------===========================Here are the ways to work with us here at Grapple Asia: ===========================⚡️For Support inquires, or Business inquiries, please email ➡︎ mac@grappleasia.com#BJJ #JiuJitsu #nogi #GRAPPLING #podcasting #podcast #nogi #grappler #geist #bjjlifestyle #grappleasia #grappleasiapodcast #grappleasiapod #matskillz #Bteam</p>
