If your daughter gets a chance to train with Leticia Ribeiro, don't ever pass it up
Leticia Ribeiro does so much for girls in the sport of jiu jitsu. The HHCF believes that if every female in America learned "the gentle art" our country would be so much stronger. I encourage all little girls, teens, moms, aunties and grannys to get on mat.
A lot of women sometimes feel like women should not be training to "fight." But this is not training to fight. Its training to survive intense situations. Its learning to calm your mind under adversity. Its better to have jiu jitsu and not need it, than need it and not have it.
