Women-Only Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) seminars and events with the Lioness Legion are focused on creating a community of support. Both BJJ and Judo are martial arts that are known for fueling personal development and bringing people together – creating an empowering environment that becomes a family.

Lioness Legion hopes to create a sisterhood of female martial artists – a place where women can gather to learn, grow, exchange ideas, try out new techniques, and have fun!

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches martial artists to grip and throw an opponent properly, how to fall and be thrown properly, and how to maneuver and defend yourself on the ground. Judo training focuses more on stand-up and throwing skills. Both of these martial arts rely heavily on manipulating the opponent’s bodyweight and momentum to your advantage. This is why BJJ and Judo training are particularly beneficial for women, as they teach you to defend yourself against larger opponents.

Lioness Legion hosts women-only BJJ and Judo training events, and also works with other female martial arts organizations.
