No Gi Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Jiu Jitsu is a grappling based martial art made famous by the UFC (and MMA). With a need for a grappling based martial art that combines both aspects of Wrestling and Submission Grappling (without a Gi or uniform) in a Mixed Martial Arts context, lead way for the birth of No Gi Jiu Jitsu. Without the Gi, practitioners rely more on body grips and leverage rather than using the Gi for pins, control and submissions. Its premise is to help develop one’s kinesthetic intelligence and proprioception whilst utilizing a combination of tactical and biomechanical strategies with a focus on capitalizing on one’s own anatomical capabilities (regardless of athletic capacity alone) against an adversarial opponent seeking to control you against your own will. It’s a highly strategic and technical martial art that emphasizes control and submission based on the premises stated above. It is often described as a “physical chess game” due to the emphasis on technique and leverage over brute strength alone. It’s a martial art adaptable for all ages and lifestyles with real world applications in unarmed combat. Judo: Judo (Ju Do), which means “gentle way” in Japanese, is a martial art, combat sport, and the most practiced Olympic discipline that emphasizes on grappling and throwing techniques in a uniform referred to as the JudoGi or more commonly known as the Gi. Origins: Judo was created in 1882 by Kanō Jigorō, who adapted techniques from traditional Japanese Samurai based martial arts for throwing and disabling an opponent on the battlefield in unarmed combat. Techniques: The primary techniques include throws, pins, joint locks, and chokeholds. At the competitive level there is a higher emphasis on throws and takedowns. Training: Practitioners, known as the Judoka, train in a uniform called a Judogi (often called a Gi). Training involves both free practice (Randori) and pre-arranged drills and form (Kata). Philosophy: Judo is built on two main principles such as “maximum efficiency with minimum effort” (Seiryoku-Zenyo) and “mutual welfare and benefit” (Jita-Kyoei). Competition: The objective in Judo competition is to throw the opponent with Force and Control (Nage Waza), Pins/Holds (Osaekomi Waza),or via Submission through Arm Locks (Kansetsu waza) or Chokes (Shime-waza) in a Gi.
