Women in your Grappling class...how many?


Recommended Posts

OK, I was just wondering because my Fiancee has started to come to Jiu Jitsu with me. Being an Atypical man I get worried for her because she is a women. I know that in part sounds a bit chauvinist, but I can't help it. When you spare in BJJ, it can get very VERY competitive. No one gets seriously hurt or anything like that, but sometimes people get a bit ruffed up and whatnot. I realize there are a ton of great Female Jiu Jitsu practitioners (in particular, Lika) but I just get a bit stupidly worried. Do you guys have a lot of women in your classes (of the grappling ilk) and are you as stupidly worrisome as me?

We have 2. One is the instructors wife she's a 3 stripe blue belt, she's really good and helps everyone out. The other is some little mouse that is about 25-30 and doesn't really do much.

None is our dojo. :(

 

It's a big dojo though, we probably have up to 30 guys on the mats, so it's probably not the envrionment that women are looking to start in.

There are always two choices, two paths. One choice is easy and its only reward is it's easy.


It takes sacrifice to be the best.

As "odd" as it makes me feel, and I think it's just cause I am worried about my fiancee, I think it is wonderful for women to take.
