NO-GI BJJ NOW ON SATURDAYS
Join Professor Robyn for an additional No-Gi BJJ class every Saturday at 4:00 pm.
A compliment to gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, No-Gi is another popular form of grappling where instead of wearing a gi you wear shorts and a rashguard.
Due to the lack of material and grips that are found on the gi, different holds and methods of control are used. These grips are wrestling based grips such as on the head, neck and joints all over the body.
FaMA’s BJJ No-Gi program also places an emphasis on wrestling takedowns and leg locks that are suitable for No-Gi competitions which are rising in popularity.
Please note that this class is for two stripe White Belts and above.
