My wife,and 3 daughters (12,11,6) all started with a Carlson Gracie School in our local area and it has been life changing. We just earned our first stripes today and are eager to excel more. Love these videos that stress the importance of women's self defense. From a father and a husband,thank you for sharing this with the world.

My cousin just passed away suddenly in June at age 30 leaving his wife Rosie and 6 year old son Xander to now have a life without a father figure or husband . They live near Phoenix AZ . Xander is very shy and soft spoken he’s the sweetest little boy and Rosie is a wonderful strong mother who feels lost trying to find confidence and help to improve her sons life . He sometimes lets people push him around and doesn’t speak up . Unfortunately her husband my cousin was the only one over there in Arizona with her the rest of our family is in Texas . With me personally having two small kids I’m trying to get into jujitsu I realized it’s exactly what she would need to improve her confidence and his too . Xander and Rosie totally deserve to be given a chance plz reach out and I will get them to find a location in Phoenix close to where they live even if I pay for it .

I am a 5"3 female who has been looking for a martial art for self defense and I'm definitely leaning toward Jutitsu!Thank you for your recommendation!

I swear I was having the same exact dreams. I have a striking background as well and my punches and kicks where always ineffective. And I'm stronger than the average guy. However, after traing jiu jitsu I'm always victorious in my dreams. Crazy! I thought i was the only one experiencing this.

absolutely great testimonial, especially for women. Good idea to have her deliver the woman's point of view. Renner is spot on about the culture too.

In a 1 on 1 scenario with no weapons, BJJ is the best form of self defense for everybody. And it’s not really the submissions that are the big picture. It’s that when I’m grappling against somebody, I can greatly eliminate potential threats to me by controlling my opponent’s body. With striking, you’re simply reacting to what your opponent does. With grappling, you’re stopping them from being able to do it in the first place.

I grew up doing Taekwondo and I only learned a few things that ever helped me in a real fight (front kick/side kick off the front foot, getting my head and body out of the way of a punch/kick and an instep kick off the back foot to the knee of someone coming towards me). We play a lot of Rugby here in Australia so my go-to whenever I got into a fight was basically a double-leg take down onto the nice hard cement. At the start of this year I started doing Judo which naturally led me to BJJ a few months later. Feel pretty confident I would be fine if anyone came at me on the street but I wish I'd started years ago because it's great fitness, it's a great community and I love competing.

Yes many fights end up on the ground..but 100% of fights start standing up

this is easy to agree on why BJJ is best for self defense for women

THATS CRAZY I joined jiu jitsu a month ago and just like her, I have dreams of what I learned during the day

She's beautiful!

So everyone has had that nightmare of throwing punches into into jello(pillows for me) trying to save your life. Interesting

I hate that the nearest certified training center is in San Antonio, four hours away. And other jujitsu schools in my area focus on sport and competition.

I'm hoping to start jiu jitsu self-defence classes for the first time this September. I'm a 55 year old woman so a bit uncertain as to whether I'll manage but really excited about my first trial!

Totally off topic, but he reminds me of Justin Baldoni because of his voice and how he‘s talking

Great Stuff!

can i just say, i had my first jiu jitsu dream last night, and the exact same thing. it worked when i tried it in the dream lol

I've had that dream so many times. Quite transparent in its unconscious origins!

I was wondering if suzi had videos of her in her kickboxing competitions?

"That's dope", "That's what it's all about"; I love that.

Wow. Its great that her empowerment has gone through even Into her dreams. Great message. I cant wait to see more pink belts at my ctc

Very interesting. Always have the same dreams but yet to have a jui jitsu one and yet to start my journey

rener is deadass the damn man

Do you guys make all students roll with everyone in the classes?

I'd like to know if she used a Groupon.

I can disagree more when he says jujitsu is the only martial arts design for small people to win against big people. Dont forget ur grand farther create jujitsu from Judo .

Size matters in Bjj too, that’s why the women don’t like rolling with the guys even though they might be higher belt

So the reason why she finds jujitsu effective is because it gives her victorious dreams ?

When I'm fighting In my dreams I can not punch really hard or fast so I try to stay awake most of the time. but in real life it's other history... Jiu-Jitsu is good specially if you fight someone that know shit about Jiu-Jitsu or wrestling.

In Jiu Jitsu, a woman can be on her back, with an attacker between her legs and still choke him unconscious. My 9 year old daughter is doing Jiu Jitsu. Renner is right that culture matters, too. Theirs is great. I did the drive for a couple of years and got a solid base.

Salute to keeping all the women safe!

I just put my 10year old daughter in your class but in tracy California how do I go about getting you to talk to her for Motivation. face time or phone would work LA is far thank you for what you guys are doing 3 days in and she tells mom she feels batter about going to school and about herself

This is a great video, i also think that her training in Jiu Jitsu will make her skills in kickboxing better too

Where’s the Charlie Zelenoff hasn’t replied to my challenge guy? Haven’t seen him pop up in a while.

I don’t study BJJ but I agree.. When women are attacked, it’s not “hey I challenge you to a fight think you so tough ??” (leads to a stand up start)... When women are attacked they are often on their back on the floor or pinned to a wall.. Exactly the arena of BJJ or grappling.. A woman that knows her way from a pinned initial engagement is more likely to escape the engagement.. I have yet to see an assailant man go to a woman “YO if I beat you (in some combat), can I bed you ??”... Having said all that, BJJ won’t be as effective being gang attacked, whether female or male. Which case Smarts-Jitsu is your best option.

Considering how often fights end up on the ground, Jiu-Jitsu is great for everyone. And women are better at it. Uh Oh. :-)

I’m i. San Diego. What school

REALITY!

You always look so stoned in your videos... I love pink kush myself.. very nice

BJJ is very expensive and has limites access in Asia, i trained in South America where it's more accessible, now i needed to stop because it's expensive in my country

The dream thing is for real.

No. Jiu-Jitsu is not the best self-defense system for women (nor for men). It is a very good system specialized in ground fighting, but it has its limitations. In fact, GJJ/BJJ is just another piece of the puzzle. That's all. In the real world, there is no such thing as one system being the best and superior in self-defense. And when someone claims that, it is nothing more than marketing-propaganda.

Boxing dose seem to rely on strength. I mean could a 135lb person regardless of gender ko someone say 250lbs? Seem like a 135lb person dose have a better chance making a 250lb person tab out then actually knocking them out.

I really respect jujitsu but it's as if you bjj people think you're invincible or something...there is no such thing as a complete martial art, bjj is no exception

honestly, i cannot see how BJJ can be helpful for a tiny 50 kg woman. At least with striking she has the chance to hit the knee and run away, but grappling with a a 70-80 kg man is a suicide! unless she maybe reaches a purple or brown belt level, but even then the opponent has to be pretty unskilled and non-athletic for that to work. Sounds like a GJJ propaganda.

"Every art has its place". Nah, some martial arts just suck. We have a handful of martial arts that we know work really well. Why would you choose to study something else? Answer: Special Snowflake Syndrome.

Modern day MMA is unrealistic and gives a striker up to 5x an advantage exclusive of hand wraps. Dreams are the key to our reality. The imagination is more real than our physical world because everything has to first exist mentally before it can exist in our physical world which is just like a stage. The brain is just a cloak for our non physical mind which is attached to our soul. The Astral Plane is the subconscious mind ( the right side of brain which is 99% more powerful than the left conscious rational side ) and constitutes the overlapping area of the imagination, thoughts, intuition, dreams, feelings etc. Every time we dream or imagine we are travelling into a real world ( attached to our physical body by the umbilical cord of our soul ) where demons also live. The Astral plane is interlinked to planets, which are self illuminating lights of plasma, the homes of demons, which travel through 1 of 4 main elements ; air/fire/earth/water ( the periodic table of elements are just the 4 REAL Elements derivatives ) and manifest behind the static rain of our vision ( its a veil like a curtain ) into our physical world. Google is satan, the demons can access proxy. They are all around you but you never noticed ; obama, melanie trump, the queen, david cameron, boris johnson, hilary clinton, the old lady at the store who cursed you out, mark zuckerbeg are all real living breathing demons made of plasma, as they can take on any form as inter-dimensional shape shifting entities and they are living on earth permanently having been summoned by their human magicians, just like in Babylon and ancient Egypt where Magic all began and so too then did the Djinn walk and rule among mankind. 'Aliens from other planets' is a Hollywood invention and hence the 'Alien invasion.' Candles and incense are the highest technology, electronics etc. are their products There is no such thing as oxygen, God, Light, Soul and the Sun are 1 and the same, the Sun is the dispenser of Light and it is in the Air that we breath, hence the fifth Element...... Spirit.
