Lets say you want to take a 3 month break from training, how common is it to suspend your account? Do most instructors/gym owners allow this? Is this considered bad etiquette?
I was toying with the idea why training BJJ doesn't have an 'off season'. Like to heal injuries, to refocus from burn out, to focus on other aspect of your life, and to take a break from the daily/weekly grind of training.
Don't get me wrong, if you love training, keep on training, obviously.
For example, I officially ended my membership to the school I trained at, but if there was an option to suspend my account temporarily like 3 months or something I would have strongly considered this option vs. (planning) to take a year off.
I also understand running a BJJ gym is a business and the owner needs to pay rent and put food on his table as well, I get that!!
What are your thoughts? gym owners and students?
