No Burping Rule?

[Bre]

While boxing is my main interest, I am following an app for that & videos, I decided to check around for self defense classes.
I found out we have a Carlson Gracie Ju Jitsu place nearby. They have a great self defense class 3 times a week. It's on my list to check out. The owner is a black belt in Carlson Gracie style & various other martial arts. He came back & opened his dojo a few years ago. He grew up here.
I researched some more and found that we have a new Gracie Ju Jitsu place too. Just opened this summer. I know a little bit about the rivalry between both groups. I was going to check this place out until I realized there's a NO BURPING rule. I was shocked, then I started laughing. This is a stupid rule. Burping is a natural bodily function. You can't always control it. The owner trained under Royler.
I have never seen a NO BURPING rule anywhere. I understand the whole be quiet, pay attention, don't interrupt, follow commands (instructions & directions), be respectful, etc.

Yeah it’s stupid…if a place is putting that kind of ridiculous rule in then find another place

I am tempted to drink a can of coke & walk in there...
He's new here, maybe he'll learn & change it.

I think the objection is perhaps to the idiotic habit, many men enjoy, of stretching out their neck, pointing their mouth up at 45 degrees in the air and belching at high volume followed by a weird smirk of what appears to be pride. A discreet, almost silent, burp without drawing attention to it, is acceptable.

Every wouldbe gentleman should have a copy of this book, placed in their Christmas stocking.

Interestingly the noise of a burp is produced by air being blow across the pharyngeus muscles of the throat. In response, they vibrate at low frequency. It’s the technique that those who’ve suffered a laryngectomy use to produce that monotone Darlek voice you might’ve heard.
