Women's Self-Defense Success!!

This past Sunday, we celebrated having another successful Women's Self-Defense Seminar!! We had a room packed with women all working on bettering themselves and learning how important Jiu-Jitsu is for self-defense.

Our seminar was led by Purple Belt instructor Makenna Ratchford, Blue Belt competitor Hana Sumita, and our fake assailant-- Brown Belt instructor Nevin Langan. After a previous women's self-defense seminar at Scranton Preparatory School, we chased that momentum and held another one at our home base!

We reviewed some basic yet essential aspects of self-defense like grip-breaking, technical stand-ups, and break-falls as well as some fake-scenarios like the Gracie Combatives punch block series from standing and from the ground working our way into submissions inspired by the elites.

We are hopeful to start hosting FREE self-defense seminars more regularly due to the interest, success, and value! We are also THRILLED to announce that we are finally bringing a Women Only Jiu-Jitsu class to our gym every Monday at 5pm after the New Year!! This is such an amazing thing happening for women in the Scranton/NEPA area, GET INVOLVED!!

Jiu-Jitsu is the king of self-defense, an amazing form of exercise, and is simply just FUN. Come train and change your life! Contact us for more information!!
