Girls in Gis held their first ever Advanced level seminar for female Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioners in the northwest. The event was hosted by Kindred Jiu Jitsu in Edmonds and was taught by northwest black belts, Cindy Hales of Sleeper Jiu Jitsu and Michelle Wagner representing Foster BJJ.

What made this seminar different from the ones previously held by Girls in Gis is that the techniques and concepts covered were primarily geared toward higher belts or more advanced grapplers. for techniques Michelle showed a slick and sneaky ankle lock set up followed by a heel hook from the same position. Cindy showed a bit of her Bora Bora system that included a back take, pass, hip lock, ankle lock and triangle and armbar.

Below are a couple of videos of the positions shown.
