Women in Jiu Jitsu

I won't lie, it's hard to find a high-level female instructor in the jiu jitsu world - especially a heavy weight one.

No matter your size, skill level, or endurance, I am here to help you achieve your goals.

I've been there! I started jiu jitsu in my 30s when I was extremely overweight. So I understand all the quirks (and gifts!) of being a woman in jiu jitsu. I cannot wait to share my experience with you!

Are you afraid you can't handle the class? Are you concerned your squishy parts might get in the way? Do you think you aren't strong enough or brave enough? Does close contact with a potential stranger make you clam up? 

We have the space for all that and a lot more. I create an environment where you're comfortable and free to explore your abilities without judgement. Yes, I will push you to explore your full potential, and I promise to  respect your limits every step of the way.
