our philosophy is "no-gi only"

---

Traditional Gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu requires a kimono, which isn’t just expensive but also a hassle to maintain (think: special detergents, extra washes, and having to buy new sizes as you or your kids grow). With No-Gi, all you need is a t-shirt and a pair of shorts (no zippers or pockets), and you're good to go.

No extra costs, no complicated gear - just show up and train!

Let’s be real - nobody wants to walk into work (or the school pickup line) with jammed fingers and sore wrists. 

No-Gi training removes the constant gripping and pulling of traditional Gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, reducing strain on your hands, wrists, and joints. Plus, without the thick fabric to grab onto, there’s less friction - meaning fewer burns, scrapes, and unnecessary wear and tear on your body.

 Think of Gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu like chess - slow, methodical, and grip-heavy. No-Gi, on the other hand, is like a fast-paced game of tag mixed with wrestling! Without grips to slow things down, the pace is quicker, the movements are more fluid, and the training feels more athletic and engaging. It’s an incredible workout that builds cardio, strength, and agility - without relying on brute force or painful throws. 

No-Gi training is more transferable to real-life situations because, let’s face it, nobody walks around in a kimono. Whether you want to build confidence, learn self-defense, or just challenge yourself in a new way, No-Gi gives you skills that work beyond the gym. It’s also beginner-friendly—no need to invest in expensive gear or worry about complicated grips. Just show up, train, and have fun!

Whether you’re looking to get in shape, improve athleticism, or find a new passion, No-Gi Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at A-Team is the perfect fit.
