Women Empowered is the official Gracie Jiu Jitsu self-defence program for women based on the techniques of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ). In this 15 lesson program, we will teach you how to neutralise the 20 most common attacks ranging from having your hair grabbed to being pinned the ground by a weapon-bearing assailant. Each one hour Women Empowered lesson addresses two techniques. You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience.
Unlike most self defence systems that rely heavily on strength, speed and coordination, the techniques in the Women Empowered program employ leverage, technique and timing so that anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, can make them work against larger opponents.
