Goals of Jiu Jitsu

I think him and his coach are probably equally at fault. The coach should probably have seen it coming, and he himself should have been able to feel where it was, and that it was going to go.

But, in training, accidents do happen.

He should have definitely been able to feel how tight it was. I mean I was armpit deep in the kimura and was holding steady pressure and making adjustments to his movement and thought "ok he'll tap any second" and the arm went first.

I actively sought him out after they stabilized his arm and apologized and he said it part of the sport and no hard feelings so he knew he messed up. Later in the day I also sought his coach out to apologize and wish his student well but I'll leave it at that since I was disrespected at this moment.

Well, I think you did the right thing in seeking out both parties. If the other guy had too much ego for you, oh well. Such is life.

The guy was cool theirs no hard feelings between us it was his coach that was disrespectful when I approached him. But that's just how that guy is if you're not a member of his team you are worthless. I told my coach that I was going to be the bigger man and appologize to him and told him the out come. He told me not to worry about it because he showed his true colors and that I was the better person for what I did and how I handled it.
