Types of Training
GI ATTIRE
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Gi class follows a grappling rule set and format in which, beyond utilizing direct control over the opponent's body, the fabric and belt of the uniform known as the gi/kimono may be gripped and manipulated as well.
​
This additional layer of options often makes gi jiu-jitsu feel somewhat more slowed down relative to no-gi / submission grappling, while opening up your game to explore even more expressions of skill and creativity within an already technically rich grappling discipline.
NO-GI ATTIRE
Submission Grappling
Grappling without a gi means that the opponent's clothes are not allowed to be grabbed and controlled. This type of grappling more closely resembles MMA grappling and other adjacent disciplines such as wrestling than gi jiu-jitsu.
​
Recommended Attire:
Top: Rash Guard
Bottom: Shorts and/or Leggings
(No zippers!)
