WOMENS BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU PROGRAM

“A black belt is a white belt who never quits.” – Carlos Gracie Jr.

Should a girl know how to defend themselves? Why should any female be part of Gracie Barra Naples?

Aside from all classes offered in the Adults Gracie Barra Program, our school offers a set of classes designed to introduce women to the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

As a martial art Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is designed to allow the weaker to defeat the stronger, BJJ is a perfect fit for women who are interested in learning how to protect themselves – and who wouldn’t be, right?
 
 
The Gracie Barra Women’s Program combines a comprehensive self-defense curriculum with emphasis on drills that simulate realistic attack and escape situations.

The techniques are complemented by a strong fitness component that is second to none compared to classes offered in regular gyms.

Classes specially designed for women like Rape Prevention, BJJ Conditioning and social “get togethers” are added benefits to the ordinary GB activities and create a strong bond between the members of the “Gracie Barra Pink Team.”

You’ll notice a very positive and friendly environment when you enter our school. Although martial arts can be intimidating for women, this class is definitely not intimidating. You will find a group of girls, some of them wearing a pink GB uniform, who are excited to be there and excited to have you there. The instructor will run several basic drills and after a few classes you will catch up with the rest of the group. Once you master the basics you will really enjoy the intensity of a class based on effective self-defense techniques and real life situations.
