The only school I can think of off the top of my head that does strictly no-gi grappling (99.9% positive I'm right)
is East Coast Submissions. So, maybe Danny can answer that question. Then again I don't know how he does his ranking system (if he has one) for his grappling piece of his program. On a side note, I know of a few schools that are implementing a new system for their no gi classes. Each student wears a colored shirt that represents their respective belt rank in bjj.

I was talking about schools like Eddie Bravo’s school that claims the Gi training is useless. And I know I have heard I quite a few times over the last few years that there are many students that train at a gi school that get bjj ranked and never putting on a gi. They always do no-gi, never buying a gi and training with a gi. Quite a few fighters on the TUF show fit that scenario. Hey I’m not in a position to critique anyone, but it is a GI art isn’t it??
