Every BJJ academy has one.
The No Gi guy shows up on Gi night and when everybody is drilling collar chokes.
Some of them of them say that they don’t like the Gi. That No Gi is more fun, faster, easier etc..
Some BJJ academies claim that grappling in the Gi is the best way to learn to grapple. Other BJJ academies believe that training in the Gi only makes you better at fighting in a gi, aso you should train more No Gi because it’s more realistic and better for MMA.
There is no right and wrong when it comes to grappling. Gi or No Gi, it’s all grappling. Do whatever makes you happy.
Here’s a funny parody of the No Gi guy.
In order to pursue his dreams of fighting in the UFC, Jake decides it’s time he focus on no-gi training.
