Gi or no Gi?

this was a self defence thread though - not sure how ADCC is relevant to that

Both.

Gi training can make you rely on Gi grips and no-gi forces you to use different grips.

But Gi teaches you to utilize the grips and defend them. More options and also includes no-Gi techniques.

For self defense make sure to learn wrist locks, pressure points, and other not accepted in competition techniques. Phone Post

Whichever one you enjoy. If you don't train, it won't help you.
