The Women Empowered Program’s foundations lie in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu; the martial art that elimates the size and/or physical strength of an opponate as an advantage through skilled manoevers and tactics. When such BJJ skills are used an appropriate manner, a BJJ practioner will prevail over a larger, stronger opponent everytime and it is with this in mind, that the self defense classes included in this program have been designed. The Women’s Empowered program ultimately teaches women how to subdue or escape from potential attackers, much larger than them, while remaining in control and most importantly, safe. Program participants learn these skills in a fun and supportive environment whilst improving general fitness and flexibility at the same time. The cognitive control honed by participants throughout this program culimates in benefits across all areas of life; enabling logical, rational and planned reactions to stressful situations at home or in the work place, right through to the toughest situations that life can throw their way.
