RISE
01Welcome

A welcoming space
for every woman

Walking into a gym for the first time can feel intimidating. At Alavanca Shawnessy, our Women's Jiu-Jitsu program is built to be the opposite. From day one, you'll train in a supportive, beginner-friendly environment where questions are encouraged and progress happens at your pace.

Our coaches and students are deeply invested in mental growth and physical fitness, helping you feel safe, capable, and confident as you learn something completely new.

Now Enrolling

We're excited to announce the start of our new Women's Jiu-Jitsu program, kicking off Tuesday, February 24th, from 7:15 p.m. to 8:30 p.m at our Shawnessy location only.

This program is designed specifically for women ages 14+, with a welcoming, beginner-friendly environment focused on confidence, fitness, and personal growth. Whether you're brand new or returning to training, this is your chance to start something empowering alongside an encouraging community of women.

How We Train
02 Real Connections

Supportive Training, Real Connections

You won't be thrown into the deep end. Classes are structured so you can train with partners of similar size and strength, creating a comfortable learning experience where technique matters more than power.

Along the way, you'll build genuine friendships with women who support, motivate, and celebrate each other on and off the mats. Many students say the community is what keeps them coming back.

03 Everyday Life

Confidence That Carries Over

Jiu-Jitsu has a powerful way of changing how you see yourself. As you learn to stay calm under pressure, solve problems, and defend yourself, your confidence grows naturally.

Our women's class helps teach confidence that doesn't stay in the gym — it shows up at school, at work, in relationships, and in how you carry yourself day to day.

STRONG RISE
Empowerment Without Intimidation

Strength, Fitness
& Empowerment

This isn't about being aggressive or "tough enough." Jiu-Jitsu is about leverage, control, and technique, making it ideal for women of all ages and fitness levels. You'll improve:

04For Every Body
01Functional Strength & Endurance
02Mobility & Body Awareness
03Mental Resilience & Focus
05
A Path to Growth

Most importantly, you'll gain a deep sense of self-empowerment, knowing you can protect yourself, push through challenges, and grow stronger both mentally and physically.

Women's Jiu-Jitsu is about more than learning techniques. It's about becoming more confident, more capable, and more connected — whether you're 14 or well into adulthood, this program meets you where you are and helps you grow into your strongest self, inside and out.
