The idea of being sexually assaulted is very terrible thought and experience that happens more times than one thinks in this country. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the most effective martial to defend yourself in a rape situation.

The techniques are designed to help any woman escape from her attacker, whether she is on her feet or on the ground.  Even though the techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are not based on strikes and kicks, in this course women learn a mixed martial art which incorporates strikes and kicks as well as ground self-defense which may  one day save their lives in the event of a predator assault.  The escape moves of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are based on leverage and technique and do not require strength, speed or coordination. They can therefore be used effectively by women of any age, size, strength or level of physical fitness.

The worst part of an attack situation is the feeling of total helplessness the victim experiences. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu not only empowers a woman physically with simple, effective techniques for an escape, but also psychologically and emotionally by enabling her to maintain the presence of mind necessary to recognize or create an opportunity to get away.
