No-Gi Grappling

No-Gi BJJ

(Without the Kimono)

No-gi Jiu-Jitsu (without the kimono) and the leg-lock game is gaining in popularity within the grappling community. The most feared no-gi grappling team in the world ( The Danaher Death Squad ) used a mastery of the leg-lock centric game to dominate its competition.

For a considerable amount of time teaching leg-locks was frowned upon by BJJ purists. However nobody can deny their efficacy. With the IBJJF now introducing leg-locks (including heel-hooks and knee reaping) into higher-belt competition. Progressive clubs are introducing them into their curriculum.

At The Fighting Arts Academy we are fortunate that black-belt professor Andrew is completely focused on the no-gi game.

Andrew who also runs the Combat Sportswear Brand – 50/50 Lockers  – is a leg-lock wizard and teaches no-gi at the academy. He is also a regular feature at 10th Planet London.
