All three share the same base, but each has its own appeal. We'll help you choose.<\/p>\n<h2>BJJ (with a gi)<\/h2>\n<p>This is classic Brazilian jiu-jitsu. The gi allows grips on the fabric, which makes the game more technical and slower. It's ideal for learning the fundamentals calmly and understanding the why behind each position. <strong>If you're starting from scratch, it's the best way in.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>No-Gi (without a gi)<\/h2>\n<p>You train in tight-fitting sportswear. Without the fabric, the game is faster, more dynamic and closer to a real situation or to grappling in MMA. It's perfect if you like a high pace or want to complement what you learn in the gi.<\/p>\n<h2>MMA<\/h2>\n<p>Mixed martial arts: <strong>boxing, kickboxing, wrestling and jiu-jitsu<\/strong> in a single class. It's the most complete workout and the most demanding on cardio. It's taught by Yuri Anderson, a professional MMA fighter. Sparring is always controlled and never compulsory.<\/p>\n<h2>So, which one should I choose?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>I want to learn self-defence and technique<\/strong>: BJJ.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I want something fast and very physical<\/strong>: No-Gi.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I want striking and grappling<\/strong>: MMA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And if you're still not sure, take our quiz <em>Which class is right for me?<\/em> on the home page or see all the <a href=\"https:\/\/jiujitsuvalencia.es\/en\/clases\/\">classes<\/a>.
