Women Only
Orange County's Only Full-time Dedicated Women's Program
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the ideal martial art for women because of its founding principle of technique and skill over strength and size. Yet, it can be intimidating and frustrating for beginner women practitioners when training with men who are naturally bigger and stronger. Because we believe more women in our community should benefit from training Jiu Jitsu, we offer a full-time (up to 4 classes per week) women only classes, led by female instructors of the highest caliber, boasting IBJJF World Champion titles.
The Most Supportive Community of Women
The beauty of women's Jiu Jitsu program is the level of support and empathy every member has for one another. Whether you're looking for a fitness activity to help you get in shape or to learn self-defense skills, Teragi Academy and its members will guide and support you through your journey from the first time you step on to the mat. Maybe it is not always expected, but you will also find there is a meditative quality to training Jiu Jitsu that improves mental health. Best of all, forging bonds and new friendships with a team of supportive women create a deep sense of belonging!
Teragi Jiu Jitsu Commitment to Women's Program
Our commitment to the women's program centers around two main goals:
1. While women’s involvement in Jiu Jitsu is increasing, we still constitute a minority, making it challenging to find suitable training partners. The tight-knit groups of women within each academy, though small, offer valuable contributions to the broader Jiu Jitsu community. Our aim is to unite these groups through our regular workshops and open mats, fostering a culture of knowledge sharing over competition, transcending team boundaries and affiliations.
2. Many women starting their Jiu Jitsu journey often face the challenge of training with stronger, less skilled male beginners, hindering their learning and enjoyment and posing injury risks. To address this problem and create a safe haven for women athletes starting out, Teragi Jiu Jitsu has established a dedicated women only program where women can consistently train with their peers up to 5 times a week. This allows them to develop skills, confidence, and the choice to eventually train with larger, stronger male partners.
If you’re contemplating embarking on a journey of self-discovery, strength, and knowledge, now is the time and the place is Teragi Academy. Join us!
