WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“No Gi is definitely faster paced, but in a good way. It’s helped my movement and reactions a lot. The sessions are well run and still really technical, even though it feels more dynamic than Gi.”
What to bring
For No Gi classes, wear a rashguard and shorts or spats, and bring a bottle of water. Avoid anything with zips or pockets.
