I like how the beginners course is structured so that the techniques are repeated evenly. Therefore they are very memorable and after every class I feel like I have learned so much and know what to look for in a position. The best part is to challenge myself everytime and notice the developement both in techniques and intensity of the training. It is a very rewarding and unique feeling.
Female class
An exclusive group for women led by a woman, our coach Milla Bahia. This group aims to bring together women with the most varied desires, whether for weight loss, self-defense, quality of life or competition, in addition to being an inspiring group capable of promoting women’s self-esteem and confidence. Women’s jiu-jitsu has grown over the years and is one of the sports that has become more popular among women, a great opportunity for you who are looking to do something different in your routine.
