Professor Tessa Neely started training Jiu-Jitsu thirteen years ago. She received her black belt from Matt Jubera in December 2021, making her his first female balck belt. She is a Pan American champion and a multiple time Master's world's Championship medalist. She enjoys simplifying the instructional part of Jiu-Jitsu for everyone to understand from basic movements to advance strategies.

Lizzie Hershberger began her jiu jitsu journey in late 2016. After experiencing jiu jitsu as a catalyst of growth, jiu jitsu quickly evolved from a hobby to a way of life. As co-owner and brown belt at The Academy of BJJ Arvada, Lizzie works to foster a welcoming, safe and empowering environment for practitioners of all levels.

Girls in Gis is a community of women and girls in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that come together through donation based training events which are hosted, instructed, and attended only by women and girls. It's our time to come together and take over the mats! Women and girls of all ages and skill levels are welcome to attend from any academy affiliation. We welcome beginners and don't require any experience. Our events are designed for 100% participation. However, we do allow parents or chaperone to accompany underage participants as spectators.
...
Our events are donation based in order to provide equal opportunity to everyone. Your donations provide paid teaching opportunities for our guest instructor(s) and help to expand and make Girls in Gis programs such as our events, our leadership program and instructional training programs and our scholarships possible. If you are not able to make a donation please contact us and we will work with you so that you are able to participate.
You can also purchase a GIG t-shirt, patches and more GIG merchandise with your donation. All orders can be picked up during the event.
COST: $20 Min Donation. All Donations Welcome.
