Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for Women in CT

Are you a woman looking for a better, more exciting way to exercise?  Why not learn self defense while you improve your fitness, flexibility, and strength.  You might not need look much further…our BJJ program is perfect for men and women of all ages.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) was founded on the principle that a smaller person can defend against (or defeat) a larger opponent with technique, timing, and leverage.  BJJ is the martial art perfectly suited for women who would need to fight off a stronger, male aggressor.

Our academy is made up of a great group of people.  Most are in the 30-40 age range, both men and women, and all doing BJJ for fun.  This is not a competition school so the vibe on the mat is friendly.  You won’t attend a single class without either getting help from a fellow student…or later on giving help to a newer member.

And if you also happen to enjoy cardio kickboxing we do that as well.  Each belt cycle (approx 3 months) the curriculum will cover stand up moving (footwork), kicking, striking, and takedowns.  We drill stand-up techniques with partners and training pads.

Giroux BJJ is located in Glastonbury, CT.  Easily accessible from I84 and Rte2.  Students come in from surrounding towns like East Hartford, Wethersfield, Portland, Manchester, and Vernon Rockville.  Come on down to watch or try out a few classes.  Everyone gets a FREE two week membership…so there isn’t any obligation to see if BJJ is for you.  Memberships are month-2-month (no long term contracts) and you will recieve a FREE training kimono on sign up.

Don’t wait…give a call to ask your questions and then get on the mat!  Train safe.  Call 860.633.1466 and ask for Jeff.
