No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu for Weight Loss and Fitness

Looking for a fun, effective way to lose weight that doesn’t involve boring treadmills or crowded gyms? No-Gi Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) might be your perfect solution. At 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu Dallas, we combine high-energy workouts with practical self-defense skills to help you burn fat, build muscle, and boost confidence—regardless of your fitness level.

Whether you're a busy adult looking to shed pounds, a parent searching for a healthy activity for your child, or someone seeking an alternative to traditional fitness routines, No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu offers a full-body transformation in a supportive, motivating environment.


Why Choose No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu for Weight Loss?


No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is a fast-paced, ground-based martial art that delivers serious fitness benefits. Unlike traditional Gi Jiu-Jitsu, No-Gi training eliminates the kimono, focusing on body control, positioning, and athletic movement—perfect for burning calories.

Key Fitness Benefits:

Burn up to 700–1,000 calories per class

Strengthen your core, arms, and legs naturally

Improve flexibility, balance, and coordination

Boost cardiovascular health and endurance

Reduce stress and increase mental focus

A typical 60-minute session at 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu Dallas includes a warm-up, drilling techniques, and live rolling (sparring), which keeps your heart rate up and muscles engaged.

Common Questions About No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu


What is the difference between Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu?


In Gi Jiu-Jitsu, practitioners wear a kimono and use it to grip and control opponents. No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu, on the other hand, is done in athletic gear and focuses more on speed, body positioning, and athleticism—making it ideal for fitness and weight loss.


How many times a week should I train for weight loss?

For noticeable results, aim for 2–4 sessions per week. Consistency is key! Combine classes with a healthy diet for optimal fat loss.


Do I need experience to start?


Nope! Our classes are designed for all levels—from total beginners to advanced competitors. Everyone starts somewhere.


Is it safe?


Absolutely. Safety is our top priority. Classes are structured, supervised, and taught by experienced coaches who emphasize control and technique over brute force.
