What is G.I.R.L. Power!™?

G.I.R.L. stands for Grappling Intensive Resistance and Locking, and was developed by Jeff Wooten as a way of teaching techniques to females which give the practitioner the knowledge to defend herself and protect her loved ones from enemies. The techniques are based upon the joint locks and chokes (caled "Chin Na") found in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Hung Gar Kung Fu, in which you use multiple body parts as a lever to overwhelm one joint on an opponent. The result is you obtain absolute control over your opponent through the pain of a joint lock or by shutting off the blood flow and air to the brain.

As compared to men, women carry a larger percentage of their overall body strength in their hips and legs. Therefore, G.I.R.L. Power!™ contains many techniques which emphasize the use of the hips and legs for defense and offense. For example, in "The Triangle" (shown above), Mary uses her legs to put Jeff in a helpless position (even though Mary is actually on the bottom), because he can no longer effectively attack her. Moreover, the extreme pressure from both of Mary's legs, her hips, and Jeff's own arm, shut off the air and blood flow to Jeff's brain. Once the Triangle is applied, your attacker is unconscious in just a few seconds, giving you time to escape. The following are concepts that you will learn in this course:

How to be aware of your surroundings and situations:

This is the first step to understanding true personal self defense. When you know what to look for, you can avoid potentially dangerous situations. No self defense program will make you into a superwoman, so you must learn to identify possible danger before an attack happens. With the confidence that G.I.R.L. Power!™ gives you, you will learn to recognize "possibilities" in any situation that you see.

How to effectively Defend and Escape:

Sometimes, an attack may be unavoidable. When an attack happens, it will likely catch you off guard. Once more, you must assume that the attacker is larger and stronger than you are, and can hit harder. Therefore, it isn’t reasonable or realistic to believe you can kick or punch your way out of an attack. The techniques in this course aren’t based upon kicking or punching as are most other self defense classes for women. Strikes are useless when you are on the ground, which is where you will likely end up in a real attack. The techniques that you will learn in this course are based upon simplicity and leverage, and do not require strength, speed or coordination. Therefore, the techniques can be employed by women of any age or size, regardless of her level of fitness. The techniques also give the student an instant response to a variety of attacks.

Program Format

Students will learn skills and techniques in a relaxed atmosphere, and each student will drill until she is comfortable and able to employ the techniques instantly. In the end, the students will have learned to overcome the “initial panic response” that usually accompanies sudden attacks. The students will learn how to reverse an attack, effectively disable the attacker, and escape.
