Women Empowered
Women Empowered
Empowering women through self-defense education has been a priority for Gracie Jiu-Jitsu since the beginning. Our Women Empowered classes are offered weekly and teach the same curriculum and effective training protocols as our regular Combatives classes. Although Women Empowered is offered exclusively to women, female members who attend this class are welcome and encouraged to attend regular Combatives classes as well.
No Prior Experience Needed
You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience. Unlike most self-defense systems that rely heavily on strength, speed, and coordination, the Cambatives techniques in the program employ leverage, technique, and timing, so anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, can make them work against larger opponents.
Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is the perfect self-defense system for women, but only if it is taught correctly. If you’re unsure about learning BJJ for fear of injury, embarrassment, or any other reason, then the Women Empowered class is perfect for you! If you’ve tried BJJ at another school and had a negative experience, give Women Empowered a chance, and we guarantee it will win you back to the mat!
Free Online Access & Satellite Training Privileges
Upon enrolling in the Women Empowered class at any Certified Training Center, you will receive a free subscription to Gracie University Online. Through this interactive online platform, you will have access to detailed video instruction on every technique in the course, enabling you to study the lessons on any computer or mobile device 24 hours a day! Furthermore, all active students at a Certified Training Center qualify to train for free at any other Gracie Certified Training Center around the world for up to 30 consecutive days per year. Since the curriculum is the same at all Certified Training Centers, you will receive credit for every lesson on your Women Empowered attendance card when you return home!
10-Day Free Trial at our CTC!
Most BJJ schools limit new students to one free trial class. We offer new students a 10-day free trial that includes unlimited access to all of our beginner group classes for a full 10 days. We’re confident that the curriculum, the camaraderie, and quality of the instruction will exceed all your expectations. If that’s not the case, just let us know, and we will never charge you for the classes you took.
