Arte suave - Marcelo Garcia

That's a pretty interesting way too look at it. Makes a lot of sense for those just beginning.

Marcelo said to me recently that he feel the Gi is helpful for No Gi training because the Gi slows things down and allows you to see what is happening and figure out what to do. The No Gi game is much faster and it makes it harder to understand what is happening. That had not occurred to me before he said it.

This is why it helped me.

wow...this has been stated before about the gi helping with technique and so on but when stated like this it's clear and concise to make sense. the gi is like training wheels for the fast pace.
