Apex MMA: No-Gi Grappling

The Modern Grappling Art

Apex MMA

No-Gi Grappling Program Details

No-gi grappling is a form of martial arts that does not rely on clothing for gripping or submissions. Many people think that no-gi grappling is more difficult than traditional Jiu Jitsu because there are no handles or sleeves to grip onto. Others find no-gi to be more natural and fluid, making it easier to apply submissions. No matter what your opinion is, there are several reasons to start training no-gi grappling.

Benefits of No-Gi Grappling

It’s great exercise

It’s a form of self defence

You’ll be part of a new community

It develops your problem solving skills

It develops your ability to deal with pressure

For one, no-gi grappling is a great way to get in shape. Because you are not relying on clothes for gripping, you will use more energy and burn more calories during a no-gi session. In addition, no-gi grappling allows you to train in a more realistic environment. If you ever find yourself in a street fight or self-defense situation, you will not have the luxury of a gi to help you out. As a result, practicing no-gi will better prepare you for real-world situations.

Finally, no-gi grappling is simply more fun for some people. The fast pace and lack of grips can make for a more exciting and dynamic experience. If you are looking for a new challenge, no-gi grappling may be the perfect activity for you.
