NoGi Jiu-Jitsu

Are you interested in just training NoGi? At our school we have numerous NoGi classes to support your passion and goals.

Jump into NoGi Jiu-Jitsu!

The NoGI Program is designed for students who have a passion for NoGi Jiu-Jitsu. At our academy you are more than welcome to solely train NoGi or supplement your training in the Gi classes too. You build a strong foundation and eventually deepen your skills and increase your fitness.

With a focus on NoGi techniques, strategic drilling, positional awareness, and live sparring, our class offers a balance of intense and challenging experiences - while still maintaining the structure and support Gracie Barra is known for.

You will learn to adapt Jiu-Jitsu techniques without the traditional uniform. No-Gi sessions help improve speed, agility, and grip control, preparing students for a broader range of competition and real-life scenarios.

We have been part of GB Pymble community since almost 3,5 years ago when my son was 5,5 years old. Professor Karl, Coach Michelle and all the coaches here are all very professional, attentive, supportive and caring! It is very important for the little ones to be in a such a nurturing environment so they feel happy and want to keep coming back. We have been to two other jujitsu places previously and didn't quite like their approach. Thank you GB for keeping up the high standard and always putting the best for our kids.

Yes. Sparring is an essential part of Jiu-Jitsu, but partners are always matched based on experience to ensure safety and steady progress.
