When it comes to self-defense, women often look for training that is practical, effective, and empowering. At Factory Fresh Jiu Jitsu in Langley, we specialize in giving women the tools they need to stay safe, build confidence, and take control of their personal protection.
Unlike many traditional martial arts, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is designed to help a smaller, less physically strong person defend themselves against a larger attacker. That makes it one of the most practical self-defense systems for women today.
Why Jiu Jitsu Works for Women’s Self-Defense
Leverage over strength: Jiu Jitsu focuses on technique and leverage instead of size or power, allowing women to control and escape from bigger opponents.
Ground defense: Most real-life altercations end up on the ground. Jiu Jitsu prepares women for these situations by teaching them how to escape, sweep, and control from the bottom.
Submissions and control: From chokeholds to joint locks, women learn how to neutralize threats effectively while staying safe.
Confidence under pressure: Training regularly builds calmness and clarity in stressful situations — an essential skill for self-defense.
The Added Benefit of Kickboxing
While Jiu Jitsu excels at ground defense, many self-defense scenarios start standing up. That’s where kickboxing comes in.
By combining Women’s Jiu Jitsu with Kickboxing, students gain:
Striking skills: Learn how to punch, kick, and defend against standing attacks.
Distance management: Use striking to keep an aggressor away before the fight ever goes to the ground.
Cardio & conditioning: Build fitness and endurance, making you stronger both mentally and physically.
At Factory Fresh Jiu Jitsu, women have the unique opportunity to train both arts, giving them a complete self-defense system that covers striking and grappling.
