Fundamentals/Concepts
This class focuses on is the step-by-step breakdown of moves and positions of jiu jitsu.
GI Jiu-Jitsu
The Gi (uniform) is the original style of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. With its roots in Judo and Japanese Jujitsu, this syle offers the most variation and complexity. Gi BJJ allows you to learn how to move even when someone is grabbing on your clothes, and often these movements translate to no gi (without the uniform) as well.
No GI Jiu-Jitsu
No-Gi BJJ is becoming more common and is often classified as "submission wrestling." Unlike Gi BJJ, grabbing onto clothes is not allowed, and often this game is faster-paced than its Gi counterpart. Although the fundamental concepts remain the same, adjustments are needed to account for the lack of grips.
Kickboxing
Although sport BJJ does not allow strikes, it is important to learn striking for self-defense purposes and to learn how to manage distances. Besides learning how to properly strike, the theory of striking will be explored, as well as the transition between striking and grappling.
Open Mat
Just like any other activity that requires skill, you also need practice. Open mat gives you the opportunity to explore or troubleshoot your specific improvement area with your peers, as well as get good rolls in. This is an unstructured class with no formal facilitation, but everyone is here to help everyone else.
