Women in BJJ
The techniques in our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program are easy to do and easy to learn. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu requires very little strength making it the ideal choice of self-defense for women. All of the moves allow you tremendous leverage over your attacker, almost regardless of their size or strength.
First you learn the basics. Basic positions, basic defenses, basic escapes, basic chokes and basic joint locks. In the first few months you will repeat the basic techniques hundreds of times, and in doing so you will start to understand the mechanics that make the techniques work. As time goes on, we introduce some of the more advanced variations of the same basic techniques, which are also easy, because by now you are starting to grasp the basic principles of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and can see similarities between the different moves and how it all ties together. All lessons are repeated from time to time to ensure that every student fully understands how the moves are done, and gets plenty of practice doing them under the watchful eye of the instructor.
