Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for Women

Home » Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for Women

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the perfect solution for any woman looking to learn or improve their ability to defend themselves from anyone, in any situation.

Nothing is more terrifying for a woman than being attacked and not knowing her options for survival. At Vagner Rocha Martial Arts, our mission is not only to instruct women of all ages to be aware of dangerous situations, but also provide our students with practical self-defense techniques, proven to be effective in real world-situations. Our women's self-defense curriculum is based in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which is largely considered to be the best and most viable form of self-defense available. With Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at its core, our women’s program is focused on the unique dangers and challenges faced by women today, and provides our members with the skills and confidence that is necessary to avoid potential harm, as well as to protect themselves against an aggressor.

Our Women's Self Defense program aims to teach women how to defend themselves from a different perspective. Women will learn how to defend themselves standing up (which is usually how an attack starts), and they also learn how to defend themselves on the ground (which is usually where an attack ends).

Even our head instructor, black belt Vagner Rocha, places his trust in the effectiveness of our women's self-defense program and ensures that both his wife and daughter are trained in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Boxing for their own personal safety. As such, we encourage women of all ages to try our classes. We understand that women are often hesitant to try self-defense classes for several different reasons; however, we guarantee you will feel comfortable from the moment you walk into our school. Our staff will guide and assist you with all attention you deserve!

Vagner Rocha Martial Arts provides the best self-defense training for your personal safety. All you have to do is come in and try out our classes.

  • VRMA is the magic place you’re looking for

    I can’t accurately express how good VRMA is but, I will try. First, whenever learning anything of value, who teaches and how they teach it is of utmost importance. When it comes to Jiujitsu, Vagner Rocha is beyond top notch. Why? Google him for yourself but, he is not only a traditionalist with old school work ethic but, he is relevant in today’s Jiujitsu world. His resume speaks for itself. Secondly, his love for his art, love for his family, and love for his students makes his style of instruction more of a mentoring household rather than a place of business. His name is not only attached to the school, he teaches everyday, he picks who rolls against who because he knows his students strengths and weaknesses. In other words, you’re not just a client. Next, Monkey see monkey do right? Well his fellow instructors are made from the same mold. So, when you’re taking one of the other classes in the morning, or on weekends, you are receiving the same high level Instruction. Additionally, the students become family. As a group we cherish this family. The feeling is palpable when you walk into the gym. Everyone wants to help each other become better, no one takes it easy on each other, always hard. Afterwards it’s hugs positive feedback and support. It’s incredible. I’m a fireman and I can compare to that brotherhood. Lastly, at least for now, I hear parents come in because their children were being picked on, and or they’ve tried other places and felt their children didn’t get enough one on one attention. Well at VRMA there are at least 4 instructors on the mat to support Vagner and assure that the children are getting all the help they need. Our kids are super high level and more importantly, disciplined well behaved little humans. I have yet to see a parent not happy with VRMA. Bottom line, of you’re looking for high level Jiujitsu training for you or your children ( we have many father/mother and son/daughter families), I can honestly say from experience, that VRMA is the magic place you’re looking for. Don’t take it from me though, come and see for yourself. Danny Collazo

  • He is also learning about hard work, commitment, dedication and being a part of a team

    I live in Plantation and drive to Pembroke Pines three to four nights a week for my 13 year old son to train with Vagner at VRMA. There are a lot of places where he could train that much closer to our home, but I have found that Vagner and all the guys there push him to do his best and do it with respect. He is not only learning BJJ from one of the best practitioners in the state (and he’s learning well I will say – he has the medals and swords to prove it!) he is also learning about hard work, commitment, dedication and being a part of a team. The all around confidence my son has gained in the past year is well worth the drive and I would highly recommend Vagner and VRMA to anyone!
