What is the difference between Gi and No-Gi? +
Gi training uses a traditional kimono that allows grip-based techniques like collar chokes and sleeve controls. No-Gi uses rash guards and shorts, focusing on body locks, underhooks, and wrestling-based grappling. Both are taught at Gracie Laval and complement each other. See our adult programs →
How are belt promotions decided? +
Promotions are based on consistent attendance, technical growth, competition experience (optional), and attitude. There are no formal tests or fees. IBJJF requires minimum time at each belt (2 years at blue, 1.5 at purple, 1 at brown). Coach Louis-Philippe evaluates each student individually. See the full adult belt system →
Am I too old to start BJJ? +
