Women's only BJJ
Every Sunday, 9:00 to 10:00 am. A welcoming place to learn self-defence, build strength and confidence, and train with other women. No experience needed.
Why this class
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu relies on leverage and timing rather than size and strength. You learn to stay calm under pressure, escape when someone is holding you down and get back to your feet safely.
Some women prefer to start with training partners closer to their size, or simply feel more comfortable learning with other women. Same techniques and coaching as our other adult classes.
Holding a strong position, escaping from underneath and simple submissions, practised with a partner. Each technique builds on the last, so you see your progress week to week.
Strength, flexibility, balance and cardio, without weights or treadmills. You don't need to be fit to start.
Your coach
Davina is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and Judo green belt who brings warmth, energy and a welcoming spirit to every class. She makes everyone feel comfortable from the moment they walk through the door, especially people who are brand new to martial arts. Davina was promoted to black belt in November 2026.
Davina is the head coach of our Minis Program (ages 3 to 5), where her patience and positive approach help our youngest students build confidence, coordination and a love for martial arts. She also leads our Ladies Only Program, an encouraging place where women learn, train and grow together.
