Women’s Only No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu
Gracie Barra Greensboro
No-Gi is a Jiu-Jitsu style practiced without the traditional Gi uniform. What’s particularly exciting is the rise of women’s only No-Gi classes and competitions which is creating spaces where female practitioners can thrive. No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu strips away the traditional Gi which is offering a more streamlined and fast-paced grappling experience. Students wear rash guards and shorts, which simulates real-world scenarios more closely and enhances agility and technique. This style focuses heavily on speed, leverage, and adaptability, making it an exhilarating practice for those seeking both physical and mental challenges.
Why No-Gi?
- For many women, stepping into a mixed-gender class can be intimidating, especially for beginners. Women’s only No-Gi classes at Gracie Barra Greensboro provide a welcoming environment where they can learn and grow without feeling self-conscious or out of place. This sense of community fosters confidence and encourages more women to step onto the mats.
- Training with someone of similar size and strength can reduce the risk of injuries and create a safer training environment. This is particularly important in Jiu-Jitsu, where the intensity of practice can vary greatly.
- Women often have different physical attributes and learning preferences compared to men. In women’s only classes, instructors can tailor techniques and strategies to suit these needs, ensuring a more effective and personalized learning experience. This attention to detail helps female practitioners excel in their skills.
- The growth of women’s only No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is also helping to break down long-standing stereotypes. By excelling in a combat sport, women are challenging traditional notions of femininity and proving that strength, resilience, and skill know no gender bounds. This shift is not just happening at Jiu-Jitsu but is resonating throughout society, inspiring women to pursue their passions and assert their place in any field they choose.

My name is Lucas, I’m from Brasilia,Brazil. I started jiu jitsu when I was 16 years old. As a regular kid in Brazil I started practicing martial arts when I was a kid with capoeira. After a few years I had my first contact with Muay-Thai and 2 years later I had my first class in Jiu-Jitsu and like most of the people I loved since that I never stopped.
Hey! I am Coach Jess, a purple belt here at Gracie Barra Greensboro. I started my Jiu-Jitsu journey in February of 2021 after being with my husband (Professor Lucas) for about 1 year.

I have been an athlete my whole life, so after graduating college in 2020, Jiu-Jitsu was the perfect transition to stay active and still involved in a team sport beyond school years! Joy-Jitsu offers a wonderful community and workout all in one!!
