In this conversation, Travis Motl interviews Mike and Sheena Bidwell, who run a jiu-jitsu academy. They discuss their teaching methods, the importance of a structured curriculum, and the benefits of jiu-jitsu for families. Mike emphasizes the four-step approach to teaching techniques and the importance of the 'secret sauce' that makes each technique effective. They also discuss the value of testing for belts and the sense of accomplishment it brings. Overall, jiu-jitsu has strengthened their family bond and provided them with mental, emotional, and physical resilience. Mike and Sheena discuss their new book, 'The BJJ After 40 Survival Guide,' and how they have built longevity in jiu-jitsu for themselves and their kids. They emphasize the importance of not putting pressure on their children to train and allowing them to have other interests. They also talk about the mindset and preparation needed to motivate themselves and their kids to go to class, including setting a positive tone and making it a celebration.
