Episode 262 - Is Gi Jiu-Jitsu More Technical Than No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu?
From Chewjitsu
Chewy and Eugene discuss whether Gi Jiu-Jitsu is more technical than No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu and the dangers of "Jiu-Jitsu Dogma."
We discuss what being "more technical" means, martial arts dogma, using leg locks for self-defense, thoughts on Bruce Lee's philosophies on martial arts, being an open book when learning techniques, the differences between Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, using martial arts compared to a gun for self-defense, how "Basic Jiu-Jitsu" has changed over the years, whether Gi or No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is better for older grapplers, and different BJJ styles.
