What is the difference between Gi and No-Gi BJJ?
The main difference between Gi and No-Gi BJJ is the attire and grip strategy. Gi BJJ practitioners wear a traditional kimono-like uniform (Gi) with collar and sleeve grips, while No-Gi practitioners wear rash guards and shorts, focusing more on body control and underhooks.
What do I wear to No-Gi BJJ class?
Wear comfortable athletic attire such as a rash guard and compression shorts or leggings, along with grappling shorts. Avoid clothing with pockets or zippers that can cause injury to you or your training partners.
How often do you have No-Gi classes?
No-Gi BJJ classes are offered throughout the week and you can check our schedule for exact class times.
Should I train both Gi and No-Gi BJJ?
Training both Gi and No-Gi BJJ offers a well-rounded skill set and can enhance your overall grappling abilities. Each style has its unique techniques and strategies, and cross-training allows practitioners to adapt to different situations and opponents.
Do you get a rank or belt promotion in No-Gi?
At ATT Atlanta, belt promotions in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu typically require training with the Gi on.
