How does Brazilian Jiu Jitsu compare to karate or other martial arts?BJJ focuses on ground techniques, submissions, and real-world self-defense, emphasizing technique over strength. It’s excellent for building confidence, discipline, and practical skills. Karate is typically more striking-based. BJJ is widely regarded as highly effective for self-defense, fitness, and sport.
-
What do students need to wear?For their first few classes, we encourage you to wear comfortable athletic clothes. For gi classes, students will eventually want a gi uniform. No-gi classes require athletic gear like rash guards and shorts.
-
What’s the difference between gi and no-gi classes?Gi classes use the traditional uniform, allowing grips on the clothing for technique. No-gi classes are done in athletic wear without the gi, focusing more on speed and different grips. Both offer excellent training benefits.
-
