Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequent questions and answers about our Women's Martial Arts Program.
Definitely not! Our students are often so into the class and learning the techniques, that it’s only after the class that they realize they worked up a sweat!
The variety, challenge, and the feeling of accomplishment when you master a self-defense skill or technique is why students love our Jiu-Jitsu classes at North Austin.
But we find it’s the friendships and fun that keep students coming back. It’s like their second family. Why not find out for yourself? Book an intro class today!
Just show up! Upon arriving, you will be given a uniform (called a “gi”) and will be given a focused introductory lesson by one of our instructors before you join in the group class.
Every beginner class is taught with no previous experience necessary, so you will not feel left behind.
Our program is structured by class number (15 group classes), so you will always know exactly what techniques you will be learning on any given day. You could even check out the techniques of the day on GracieUniversity.com before class to get a head start!
Not at all. In fact, many students starting in our adult martial arts classes may have described themselves like that before they started. There is absolutely no experience necessary for any of our beginner classes. You will fit right in!
Give yourself some time, and you will be astounded at what your body is capable of, and how much you can improve! Our certified martial arts instructors are trained to keep their teaching simple, effective, and beginner-focused. So even the most uncoordinated person will develop ‘ninja-like’ skills! Come see for yourself!

Additionally, you can always give us a call. We would love to chat with you about what we do, and to help you determine if our North Austin martial arts classes would be a great fit for you and your family!
Absolutely! Specifically because Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) has proven reliable in defending against larger opponents for nearly a century, it is the perfect martial art for women.
Many women train in our Women Empowered program, and then transition to the co-ed Gracie Combatives classes to learn even more self-defense techniques.
We love seeing the physical confidence develop in our female students as they gain self-defense skills on the mat!
Upon arriving for your first jiu-jitsu class, we will provide a uniform, called a gi, for you wear. We recommend wearing comfortable undergarments or leggings, and a t-shirt or rashguard that you can wear under your gi. We will also have training attire available for purchase after your class.
