Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a ground fighting style using submission techniques to immobilize and subdue your opponent. BJJ is widely recognized as the most effective Martial Art for self-defence; reducing your vulnerability on the ground and other close-quarters situations. There is a fun, competitive, and sport element to this style...and without kicks and punches, you can spar without getting hit. A
women's only environment allows women to experience fighting and rolling on the ground without the sometimes uncomfortable or intimidating barrier of working in close physical contact with men. This is the perfect Martial Art for competitive-natured women who like using technique and strategy in their training. This program will offer an intense workout that utilizes all parts of the body. Elements Academy is proud to offer the only Women's Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class in Vancouver.
