Jiu Jitsu Gi or not to Jiu Jitsu Gi? Is the question..

A simple action like removing a Jiu Jitsu Gi can change the game easily. When it comes to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu the act of taking off the gi completely changes the aspect of training in the martial art. No gi competitions are a major aspect in the grappling arts today. When signing up for any competition you may see the option of participating with or without the Jiu Jitsu Gi. Both realms of the martial art are important for bringing your game full circle.

When you first begin your training, many academies will require you to begin your training in the traditional Jiu Jitsu Gi. It is during this time that you will learn the foundations of BJJ and the submission wrestling game. After you have gained substantial experience, you have the option of venturing into the no gi aspect of the martial arts. Other academies also allow you to begin training without the gi earlier in your instruction. The question of which is better often arises, but in my opinion shouldn’t even be asked.
