Women's Self-defense That Actually Works! (Gracie Jiu-Jitsu)

- In a perfect world, women wouldn't need self-defense because men wouldn't perpetrate these crimes - but the world is far from perfect. The Gracie Women Empowered program is a jiu-jitsu-based women's self-defense system which addresses the 15 most common threats against women. In addition to leverage-based physical techniques, women are taught to use the "psychology of an assault" to set boundaries, assess intentions and deter attacks before they happen!

I like what the woman said in beginning, "in a perfect world, women wouldn't need self defense, because men wouldn't perpetrate these crimes"
@Matthew the 3rd I agree. And I don't want to debate which gender is worse for it because there's no way I could know for certain, but in an ideal world, NO ONE would ever need it.
@Matthew the 3rd Yeah, but men have a better fighting chance against men. Now women on the other hand are almost guaranteed to lose the battle against a grown man, which is why they need effective self-defense knowledge and ability.
@herpos derpos I don't think you know how the law works if you think it's that simple
Males aren't the only violent people...great technics but over the top male bashing...
Fredo Friday and women
If you could snap your fingers and every woman in the world would know jiu-jitsu, would you snap? Thumbs up if yes. Comment if no.
+GracieBreakdown definitely yes... in fact, everyone should be taught martial arts and while doing so hopefully also be taught HUMILITY and RESPECT to each other. perhaps one day the world would be a more peaceful place then.
+waldomarek indeed, I wish bjj would be more popular all around the world especially after the recent events in Cologne
+GracieBreakdown Stop whining, Dork!
i know u guys said comment if no, but i want to do both thumbs up and comment yes!
I would hit that button without hesitation. It would make the world a safer place, even for the attackers (who are friends/family in a good many cases). Keep doing what you're doing, you guys are an inspiration :)
+MGTOW Properties Nice work keeping TH-cam comments classy.
the instructor is gorgeous and inspiring! !!
Yes because gorgeousness is what's important. Pretty shallow and reminds me why women rarely practice combat martial arts. Fyi, it's not men keeping them from trying.
Daniel Cring, relax it was a simple compliment, doesn’t mean that she only likes people or believes people who are beautiful only matter, I mean come on we shouldn’t assume things so much. We don’t like people saying and assuming things about us but still say things ( a lot of times without realizing we hurt someone ) and then get mad when someone else says stuff to us, it’s actually something I feel like I too need to work, and I don’t mean to lecture you but... yea do you get what I’m saying? I’m sorry if I offended you with anything, I don’t mean to be disrespectful or anything, that wasn’t my intention, peace.
No she’s not inspiring she has false bravado and she’s a man hater. Don’t listen to this!! It’ll get you killed!!! A pink belt!?! Really!?! Women’s self defense is the biggest scam out there. This isn’t jui jitsu it’s trash. It takes years to be able to handle yourself. Get a ccw while your learning jui jitsu. Can’t learn it in an hour and this only gives you false confidence not real empowerment. This woman is fake and will loose a fight very badly
TanakinSkywalker bro, pink belt is something for a small system they can do Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Combatives if they want this is a small system dude it won’t get you killed it’s for rape self defense
@@tanakinskywalker7089 trust me. It's better than knowing nothing at all. I've seen 130 pound females armbar 200 plus pound men.
I was physically attacked 2 months at my job and then I had to resign. I’ve been feeling motivated to learn self defense so here I am watching this inspiring video. I randomly started tearing up but I don’t know why. I gotta do this and gain my confidence back.
I am proud of you sis!!! You can do it!! "make yourself stronger than ever ❤️♥️💜💜
Sorry to hear that! You should press charges, it`s unfair that you had to resign if you are the victim
hope you're in a better place now, that should not have happened to you. martial arts can bring up a lot of stuff for people so its natural to have some of those feelings. hope you feel empowered by it soon
@@diseasefire have you seen the Brooklyn 99 episode where Santiago helps a girl whose boss had sexually assaulted her? It might answer your question about workplaces after attacks/assaults/etc
YOU GOT THIS GIRL, how’s it going ?
I am starting today! My daughter is this sweet 9 year old who doesn’t stand up for herself. Starting her in Jiu Jitsu was the best thing.
I've ordered the DVD for my wife... BRILLIANT STUFF!!
It's useless if you don't practice it at a gym with resisting opponents. Sparring and rolling.
D C I definitely would love to spar I always want a reason to kick someone’s ass
Make sure she dnt kick ur ass🤣🤣
@@musememe1349 hes not wrong u need to practice against a resistent oppenent
This is more empowering. My house was gotten broken into one day. I had a iron skillet frying pan in my hand. A rock suddenly crashes in the window I scream my head off. Knowing that the cops got mad at me for not calling them sooner while this crazyness was happening. And just shame me while I was hysterical made me want to join this type of class. Be your own weapon and hero and be brave take care of yourself. Because really no body would not do it
I am so sorry that happened to you. Were you okay? Did you have to use the pan in your hand to fight them off?
This video makes me wana learn the pink belt stuf.
Even I am a man :D
I think the pink belt stuff should be available to everyone because it's so practical and not everyman is physically strong enough to defend themselves
maybe u can be an instructor or something
I think it is available to everyone. I saw a guy there who looked like he was also training.
th-cam.com/video/XhYWxcJA9yg/w-d-xo.html
Male would be a better phrase then and not men. Pink belt for a male would be an insult anyways.just stay with the normal color spectrum for males.
I love the mom and daughter learning self defense together. It’s such an important skill to know no matter what age. Protect yourself, protect each other.
I'd love to learn these techniques. A pink belt? Honestly, I'm hooked!
As a teenager i never really knew why did most of the lessons we were reached at jiou-jitsu were happening on the ground. Now i understand how important it was for me from being a pre teen to learn these technics. Now I'm grateful for spending 2 years there , and learning shelf defense. Have a nice day or night!
I’m a woman that trains jiujitsu and it is the best thing ever, makes me feel invincible! Definitely recommend
Invincible? Lmao you’d get rag dolled by 90 of middle and high school boys if they actually were to try against you in a fight. Stop lying to yourself and creating false hope. Buy a gun and that’s it
Great job, that's a fantastic way to encourage women, especially with this verbal defense. Also, with granting them those belts. Keep it up!
That’s the point the belts are granted not earned. This woman is arrogant not empowered. Guns are equalizers not a pink belt
@@tanakinskywalker7089 every encounter is handled qith a gun? Shoot that drunk office coworker at the office party, yah?
@@tanakinskywalker7089 Problem is that guns don't just appear out of nowhere they have to be stored. You can get hit and you can drop the gun while pulling it out.
Encourage women? LOL. Try and encourage men to stop being violent pieces of shit. Plus, men are murdered more, Remember? By other men of course. Nice try at condescension though. Keep working at that. You'll do great. We're rooting for you. :-)
@@tanakinskywalker7089 we don’t have guns in the U.K. and real Jiu Jitsu clubs don’t make you pay for periodic gradings, you just get your next belt when the coach decides you’re ready
Bring this to Colorado, specifically Denver, Colorado. Please! 😭😩
I can think of so many women that need this, including myself. I myself was beat by my ex husband, and since he was put in prison I've been physically freed. But I've been in a mental prison myself. 😭
It is in Denver. Look up Gracie Academy BJJ
I know a few jiujitsu places in CO, I hope you're well
Here for you 💕
Then go to Bjj academy as soon as you can!
I really really recommend watching the movie "Enough" featuring Jennifer Lopez. Her character was also abused by her husband so she ran away with her daughter and learned to defend herself through boxing
My daughter has been expressing a fear of what could happen and a need to do something about it. This system seems powerful but grounded in love and respect. We are in conversation. Thanks for providing this option for her to consider. Whether or not she goes for it what you guys do is beautiful on so many levels.
I think BJJ is optimal for women.
really should've been taught to women in schools
What is bjj
@@heliophiliastudios7702 the mindest of every women need not be the same, there are can also be chances where women may use their martial arts skill unecessarily on innocent guys...if they are planning to teach then teach both girls as well as boys....
@@RajendraKumar-es3cc I thought about that and there is no point if a woman learns then, if, for example, a dude who might be a rapist in the future, learns martial arts and so does the woman (let's pretend they go to the same school), then the man will win in self-defense and then women can't protect herself (because no matter what ppl say, men are naturally stronger than women). Ik some young boys need help as well in self-defense because of our disgusting society. Men can physically protect themselves (but need help to be mentally stronger because everyone's mental vulnerability varies). I don't know if this will sound dumb but what if ppl get interviewed by a psychologist b4 they learn martial arts? I dunno there is no ultimate perfect solution in our messed up society... sadly...
@@namrataswain7971 bjj is Brazilian jiu-jitsu and it focuses on ground techniques that don’t require a lot of power to use them
Thank you for helping to empower women!
I love that Eve teaches women all over the world to be a self-defense ju-jitsu and also wrestling!
I could watch Eve talk all day. She is the most beautiful woman in the world.
Ay don’t get distracted
@@lillian-yp2ty 😂
I myself did 10 years karate-do...so I respect all the ways of selfdefence, I teached my little girl how to defend herself and this made her proud and strong...
This is so great, I would love to someday take this course.
What she said about different modes of response according to escalation, and the absolute importance of the psychological part.
If you want an effective self defense program that you can learn from home, I suggest this one: unlockyou.podia.com/super-self-defense
We need more of this everywhere.
As a lifelong martial artist who has studied various martial arts, this scalability concept in Gracie Jiujitsu is what sets it apart from other systems. It isn't just killed or be killed, there are many steps before that and they seem to address it quite intelligently. Oss!
GO EVE
I've lost count of how many times I've shared this video over the years. Definitely over hundreds and still do to this day.
Thank you for this. Thank you
This is one of the best programs in the world!
parabéns, adorei o programa! no Brasil tem algo do tipo?
Love it! Great work on focusing on practical uses. Keep it up!
You guys have a super program. I love what you’re doing.
I'll help the girl near the end finish her sentence haha
"She's so happy that she can just be herself"
Love this video. Thank you!
This is what the world needs.
Also, well played, Rener.
I’ve never done jujitsiu but feel I need to learn self defense this is so helpful!
Imagine being put in a situation like this and the predator thinks he about to get what he wants and you bust out with her moves and run. Another one bites the dust.
Wow this looks amazing!!!
It works, I signed up for bjj a few months ago. I am 38 years old, 187 cm and 95 kg, and quite strong and athletic. During training, I was carried away by a girl half the size (purple belt). Once I went to a self-defense course - organized in our company, by some guy from traditional martial arts who reportedly trained for over a dozen years - I tapped it off several times during easy sparring at the end of the class.
You are right but in a real fight there is striking. Plus it might have bites, finger in the eye grab genitals etc. So you might not be able to hold a stance properly as taught. And it's a totally different situation. For exemple you can't be too close or you'll be bite or take a headbutt. In side control, you can't leave an arm free cause it will go for genitals. So i think its safe to say that if you only do bjj you lack of 2 very important skills : foul fight skills and striking offence and defense.
Their program is quite good from that perspective : bjj (armbar 3:56), some krav maga stuff (2:36) and some striking (1:08) but in my humble opinion 2:56 is complete bullsh*t armbar or kimura to neutralize an armed guy on the ground is complete nonsense you'd better learn how to get up as fast as possible (muay boran/self defense style) the proper way and just run instead of fighting a knife on the ground.
Great vid!
Every technique in particular promo come from not Gracie, but from traditional Jiu jitsu its come from samurai history, . It's no complains, techniques works . That only is fact.Best way to practise is repeat 1 technique 1000 times then 1000 techniques 1 time ,
I want to be able to come take this training in person. I know so many people who need this right now.
For some reason domestic violence is extremely high and often overlooked by authorities in our area.
I fled domestic violence in 2020 and got introduced to Jiu Jitsu.
I want to help teach women and girls to protect themselves.
I've listened to Rickson Gracie's book Breathe three times now.
I am a Warrior in the Garden.
💚🙏❤️🇨🇦
Our government is impeding our lives here and turned completely corrupt.
Farmers need to know self defense.
They are the Peaceful warriors in their communities.
i wish more woman would at least try Jiu Jit Su they get so intimidated by it
I Do Kore Krav Maga.
@@angelllic8286 Nice
Lol I’ve tried it, it doesn’t rlly work with a big size difference tbh. I went to a school that was all guys. I’m 5’0 some of them were 6’0. I’ll stick to a glock thx.
I'm the youngest women in my gym, I train BJJ with men everyday 10x the size of me and get submissions all the time..it takes time and effort but it is not impossible. The first few months of BJJ is mostly getting your ass kicked so if you got a huge ego or you're a crybaby you're better off staying home lol
Samm 02' I saw your message in my inbox but idk why I’m not seeing it here...I did mma for 4 years off and on and did a little jiu jitsu. Some guys I rolled with with 100 lbs heavier than me, sometime I could flip guys that were closer to my height. But when rlly big guys add resistance it’s not rlly possible.
I’m really excited about joining the class
This is my favorite video. I came across this video when I was Seattle.
I so need this video I always travel alone live alone and on public transportation and with my headphones on I need to protect myself
I took the free self-defense class they had and I met them in person. Eve is such a badass!
The first sentence is so true.
Excellent stuff! Is there a streaming version now? I don’t own a DVD player. 🤷🏻♀️
I feel all women should have some form of training. My kali instructor says that kali with BJJ is the perfect combo. Make no mistake that once a knife is involved. Best thing is create distance. You cannot disarm a knife like all martial arts teach. That is only in Hollywood.
What if you have back issues?
I trialled BJJ; and severely hurt my back.
Should I try again?
I recommend TKD as well
And very thank you for teacher from gracie to sharing ad teaching all the victim women to out of trauma its helping them bro si'll priciated.that...keep up a good job bro..
ficou muito bom o video, parabens! :)
Nice defences, some of them great. But I do have a question, I am NOT a hater, but I am curious.
How long from walking through the door, to being able to do these techniques to an effective level? I know the course states 10 hours, but are they effective after this time?
I told hubs that the likely a woman would survive when you know how to defend yourself that’s why should know to defend yourself I use to take Taekwando I use to get bullied but now I’m more confident I know how to take care of myself sometimes you will be in a situation you’ll have to fight.
I would so love to do your course but it's 4 years old and I lives it Australia😭😭😭
Size, strength, adrenaline, and the element of surprise are all variables which can negate skill in a real self defense situation.
In order for a woman (or anyone) to know whether she will be able to successfully perform self defense techniques on a larger, stronger, and adrenalized aggressor who will attack her by surprise, she will need to practice them on a sparring partner who fits that description.
Two women facing off and fighting each other is not a real world self defense scenario. A woman being grabbed from behind, in poorly lit conditions, by a 200 lb. man who is three times stronger than she, being thrown to the ground and pounced upon is a real life self defense situation.
Gracie Jiu Jitsu is a great martial art; the issue is for each individual woman to pressure test her own individual skill, strength, stamina, and reaction to a realistic violent street assault by a physically superior and ruthless opponent.
Well at Gracie academy they have a special exclusive program in which they have five men attack you every other night on the way home😂😂😂
Yeah true. But it is all they can do since you can't simulate ACTUAL street scenario safely.
@@nikolaslavov3498 I would agree and disagree. No gym can fully replicate a vicious street assault, but every self defense gym must try to come as close to one as is safe to do.
Female students must be placed among male instructors, some of whom ask them the time of day and walk away and some who ask and suddenly attack them. Protective gear is available to allow harder striking, which needs to be experienced in training.
Surprise, fear, pressure, and pain need to be experienced in order to truly prepare anyone for a real street attack. Practicing with a training partner who applies none of these elements is physical exercise, not street self defense.
Yes I know. Problem is this way training becomes intimidating and not even a third of the girls in the video would be willing to do it. This is business as well, the Gracies wanna make as much $$$ as they can. Also with these emotions there's more chance of accidents and injuries.
But yes, you're 100% right. Almost none of these girls seem prepared for actual assault.
@@nikolaslavov3498 I agree, but they can start them slowly and work their way up. You are absolutely right that from the beginning, if they beat people up in class, many would not come back.
However, if they started with some easy technique training and increased the intensity gradually, explaining the necessity of doing so, I think their students would understand.
Ever since I watched the Guided Chaos (guidedchaos.com) training by John Perkins, author of "Attack proof," it changed the way I view self defense training.
BJJ training is a great idea, but it needs to include the principles taught in Guided Chaos in order to be more street ready. As Bruce Lee said, every martial system has a piece of truth to it, so one should learn from many and create a well rounded self defence system.
An equalizer, such as The unbreakable umbrella (unbreakableumbrella.com) is a good idea, too. This umbrella is a street legal self defense tool which can be carried anywhere. It is a real umbrella but built much stronger so that it can be used to defend oneself if needed.
It is nice to speak with you. Please stay safe and healthy; my best wishes to you and your family.
Thank you!
Hi! I'm a recent subscriber, another TH-camr told his subscribers about your channel. This is awesome but I wanted to know if a woman in her early 50s and handicap can join? I recently got disabled about 6 yrs ago. I was just wondering if a handicap person can learn these techniques. That would be great if I would be able to join in. Thanks for making videos that are interesting and helpful to watch. Thanks again, Lani
Royce Gracie !!! The Greatest !!!!!!
Good information 👍
I LOVE THIS! Wish we had it in Australia
If you'd like an effective training course that you can do at home, I suggest this one: unlockyou.podia.com/super-self-defense
só uma mulher dessas no treino....já anima todo mundo
What practice would include striking and ground technique for womens self defense?
1:22 song name?
Gotta respect Rener for this
It's really empowering! Good Lord I found you ❤️😍👏
If you need an effective home course that is super affordable, I suggest this one: unlockyou.podia.com/super-self-defense
I would advise boxing because most men aren’t expecting a fight and it is not how hard you hit but how clean you get hit that counts. And most perps aren’t fighters either.
This is so so great!! You go girls...Gidday from Australia..
Omg they are all so brave and stunning!!!
It’s very useful nowadays for all the attacks happening
i liked this video as a women i will support this and i will also try to learn this
Much love and respect, treat your neighbor as your self. Don't be jerk!!!💖😜💪👌🥰
Thxs.,Merci.
Is this program located in San Antonio? I’m interested.
In a perfect world women wouldn't need self defense... but until then... we get to choke em out. LOL
I have a question regarding the outfit, if you had to perform Jiu-Jitsu in a dress just because it's mandatory, would you still be able to perform these moves? Would this program still be effective? @GracieBreakdown
Obviously, some dresses will be better than others. But if it passes the squat test, you should be fine.
@@RochelleHasTooManyHobbies the problem is not the dress, the problem is all these techniques might not work in real life 😂
You are great
just have to say that she's beautiful and very charismatic, so cool, i hope to be as brave as her!
Awesome!!
Wish you were in my country ❤️
This looks awesome. You should have these skills before you carry a firearm for defense, since you need to be able use less lethal options.
hey, how long are you practising martial arts? what kind of martial arts?
I watched too many korean multifemale edits, so yeah here I am
Always liked her.
Def will sign up soon
The pink belt made me tear up 🥺
Why don’t we have self defense classes in schools? At least 1 year worth of self defense classes in high school would be amazing.
Bcz bullies will use this...its all about intensions...If u use ur power to intimidate others, u r a bully..But if u use it for self defense its a diffrnt thing..
@@adib3648 Well, the whole point of it is for self-defense against a bully.
This self-defense system is a one year program, making you incredible in self defense, with just two classes per week. Each class is just a few minutes. I highly usggest it: unlockyou.podia.com/super-self-defense
In a perfect world, women wouldn't need self-defense because PEOPLE wouldn't perpetrate these crimes... Yes, men are often in the category of people. Very good video though. More power to them.
Way to go guys------Eve keep up the great work for your husbands place, and keep him in line!!
Women's self defense is called a pistol. Use it
YES! but gracies programs are cool too
How do you get the training and sign up?
Self Defense techniques are something that need to be practiced daily . In different situations with different people. If comfort is not achieved in contact practice, most likely the technique will be ineffective in a real self defense situation. Must become second nature
beautiful
THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE AT THE BEGINNING THAT SADLY FK TRUE , THANK YOU
I want to know more about this program! And where is the closest place I can attend to:)!
There's a great program that you can do from home. It is super effective and affordable. I suggest this one: unlockyou.podia.com/super-self-defense
I want to learn ..... 🤩🤩🤩
Köszönöm szépen a feltoltest Hála az égnek egy harcias Nő aki fiatalon megtanulta hogy védje meg magát.
Whoa.. whoa whoa… men aren’t the only ones committing crimes against women . I’ve had to box with another woman who wanted to start some nonsense at the mall. Not identifying other women as a threat leaves you vulnerable.
Where can I sign up for these classes???
I really want to join that program haha
Every woman should know ways to protect herself
