Interested? Head to our 10 day free trial form to sign up!

Gracie LadySafe© is our Gracie self-defence program for women based on the techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). In this 10-lesson program, we will teach you how to neutralize the 20 most common attacks ranging from having your hair grabbed to being pinned to the ground by an assailant. Each one-hour Gracie LadySafe© lesson addresses standing and ground techniques.
You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience. Unlike most self-defence systems that rely heavily on strength, speed, and coordination, the techniques in the Gracie LadySafe© program employ leverage, technique, and timing, so anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, can make them work against larger opponents. Once you complete the Gracie LadySafe© Program, you may test for promotion to pink belt!

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is the perfect self-defence system for women, but only if it is taught correctly. If you’re unsure about learning BJJ for fear of injury, embarrassment, or any other reason, then the Gracie LadySafe© Program is perfect for you! If you’ve tried BJJ at another school and had a negative experience, give the Gracie LadySafe© Program a chance, and we guarantee it will win you back to the mat!
