On the mats

Find your way to train.

The main difference is the grips—and how those grips affect the pace. Beginners are welcome in all regular adult classes, where different experience levels train together.

The traditional uniform

Gi Jiu-Jitsu

Grips on the jacket and pants create more ways to control movement and can slow the pace, giving you time to work through positions, escapes and submissions. A white gi is required; any brand is welcome.

Movement without the Gi

No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu

Without grips on the jacket and pants, movement is often quicker and the pace more fluid. Control comes from body positioning and grips on your training partner rather than their clothing. There is no No-Gi uniform policy.
