Does CLA mean you do not learn techniques?

No. You still have to learn the moves. Nobody is saying burn your curriculum. Ecological jiu-jitsu says show less, explore more - let techniques emerge through experience rather than just lecture. Some people thrive with step-by-step instruction while others need freedom to fail forward. The key is not being dogmatic either way.
