The most practical self-defense for women isn't striking — it's knowing what to do when a bigger person is on top of you. That's exactly what jiu-jitsu teaches.
Most self-defense classes teach strikes that fall apart against a larger attacker. Jiu-jitsu is different: it's built on leverage and control, so a smaller person can defend, escape, and neutralize a bigger one — especially on the ground, where real assaults often end up. At 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu Fullerton women train these skills in a supportive, no-ego, no-gi environment, and the first class is free.
