Guys,

I was wondering the other day about if I should include some BJJ with a gi in our curriculum. I dropped it because we are purely an MMA club so we never train with a Gi. The assumption being that you can always grab someone by the body (or arms or whatever) whether they are wearing a gi or not while the reverse is not true.

BUT..

the other day I was reading a thread and someone was saying about how training with a gi makes you more technical and I was wondering what everyones opinion is on this. It is hard for me to judge because I did the first two or three years of BJJ with a gi on.

I am interested in knowing what other MMA clubs do.

JKD187, I am very interested in what you do at the SBG.
