Exactly 11 years ago, I met Eve Torres. She came in for her first jiu-jitsu class, and it’s safe to say she signed up, for life! (still not sure whether fell in love with me first or jiu-jitsu first, but that’s beside the point) Before Eve came into the picture, we had been teaching “women’s self defense” for several years, but the program never flourished, largely because we were men trying to connect with women, and no matter how hard we tried, there was always something missing. Everything changed when Eve entered the equation. Not only did she restructure the entire Women Empowered program from the ground up, but she became the instructor, leader, and role model that all of our female students were missing, and the program has flourished ever since. Between the hundreds of women learning at Headquarters, and the thousands learning at CTCs around the world, we’re making a difference, but millions of women around the world still have no access to self-defense.

Introducing Women Empowered 2.0, available on DVD and online streaming, this new program serves as the basis for an entirely new Instructor Certification Program that will enable graduates to teach Women Empowered in ANY fitness center, college campus, church, military base and beyond! There is no segment of society that needs jiu-jitsu more than women, and there is no martial art that is better suited for women than jiu-jitsu, but unfortunately women are the minority at every BJJ school in on the planet. Thanks to Eve, the new Women Empowered program, and the thousands of instructors we will certify around the world, we’re gonna tilt the scale back in the right direction and make the world a better place!
