It’s an unfortunate fact that women are at a higher risk for being physically assaulted by a larger person. Luckily, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is designed so the smaller, more technical person can defeat the larger attacker. As with anything, the only way to get proficient in self defense is practice, practice, practice. What you may not know is that BJJ and Self Defense are synonymous! If you train BJJ long enough, it becomes second nature and it’s much more likely to be there when you need it.
Aside from that, women and men alike tend to grow strong bonds with the people they train along side. The feeling of “family” is something heard quite often at Insight BJJ. Also, (along with a cleaner diet) most people who are looking to lose weight, do so through training BJJ. Those who continue to train BJJ tend to keep the weight off for longer.
This class will focus on mostly fundamentals in the beginning, and will be open only to women and teen girls. With the tools you learn and practice within the safety of the women’s only class, it could be that you eventually decide to jump into the normal adult class to get more training… or not – that’s okay too!
In addition to our weekly women’s only BJJ class, women’s only students are invited to all striking classes as well as open mat sessions.
As with the normal adult program, benefits you can expect from training at Insight BJJ include:
- Learning self-defense
- Building self-confidence
- Bonding with friends and family
- Building stamina
- Losing weight
- Maintaining healthy weight
- Competing in Tournaments
- And numerous others
All you really need to experience this effect on your life is the desire to learn, the ability to be out of your comfort zone for a little while, and to stick with it for an extended period of time.
