yes gi means uniform. Don't beleive everything you here on TV from an announcer, unless it is Mir, that guy knows his mma.

You have to look at it as trying to figure out a puzzle/ or problem. How could one convert a Gi move to a no gi move and vice versa. Not only that each one has it's benifits when it comes to working out and training.

Some schools will not say MMA on it. so you would have to do some deeper looking. I have to look, but I have some mma search site I'll post, they are on my other computer at work.
