No Gi Jiu-Jitsu is a form of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu where practitioners do not wear the traditional uniform or Gi. Instead, they wear shorts and a t-shirt or rash guard. In No Gi Jiu-Jitsu, you cannot grab your opponents clothing to increase leverage, which makes it harder to control your opponent with grips. As a result, No Gi Jiu-Jitsu is a faster-paced form of grappling.

Some differences between Gi and No Gi Jiu-Jitsu include:

• Clothing: In Gi Jiu-Jitsu, practitioners wear a traditional Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu uniform or Gi, which allows you to grab the clothing of your opponent to control or submit them. In No Gi Jiu-Jitsu, you wear shorts and a t-shirt or rash guard, and you cannot grab your opponents clothing.

• Techniques: Gi Jiu-Jitsu has more grips and pins, while No Gi Jiu-Jitsu has more wrestling-based grips such as collar ties, wrist grabs, and joint controls. No Gi Jiu-Jitsu also has many aspects that are not found with the Gi, such as brabo chokes, guillotines, and foot and leg locks.

• Pace: No Gi Jiu-Jitsu is generally faster-paced than Gi Jiu-Jitsu due to the limited grips available.

It is important to note that both Gi and No Gi Jiu-Jitsu are highly effective forms of self-defense and both are good ways to build confidence in yourself. To be a complete Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu player, you should train in both Gi and No Gi.
