DEFEND YOURSELF IN ALL SITUATIONS?
Do you want to lose weight and tone your muscles?
Do you want to feel prepared to defend yourself if you need to?
You want the self-esteem boost that comes with knowing you can fight.
THE DANGERS OF THE WORLD ARE ENDLESS
Learning to defend yourself is about more than simply wielding a weapon. The truth is that amateurs who have weapons end up getting hurt with them more often than predators do – and that’s a real problem. There’s no point in arming yourself if you’re not also in the right condition to be able to act if you or someone you love is threatened.
Jiu-Jitsu is an effective self-defense technique. What you learn on the mat will translate to the rest of your life.
RESULTS AND GROWTH WITH EVERY CLASS!
Jiu-Jitsu teaches you how to defend yourself by building on your body’s natural reactions to being attacked. As you train, you’ll build strength, hone your reflexes, and improve your confidence while learning in a safe and secure environment.
Women's Only Jiu-Jitsu STUDENTS WALK WITH CONFIDENCE AND PRIDE
One of the hardest things about learning self-defense is overcoming your natural instincts to learn new moves.
Training Jiu-Jitsu can be life-changing for most people but for women especially. It changes the conversation from how someone would save you to how you would save yourself.
Our Women Only Self Defense program shows women they are capable of being a warrior and having that mindset, even if she may have previously been a victim. Women don’t need to be strong in Jiu-Jitsu, they just need the right instruction, a safe environment to learn and proficiency in their techniques.
Women's Only Jiu-Jitsu TEACHES PRACTICAL SELF-DEFENSE TECHNIQUES
The thought of having to defend yourself against a bigger, stronger assailant might be scary, but Women’s Only Jiu-Jitsu is designed to help you overcome your fears.
By teaching students to take the fight to the ground where they can use chokeholds and other effective techniques to defend themselves, Women’s Only Jiu-Jitsu helps leverage even a small body into a huge problem for an attacker.
Best of all, Women’s Only Jiu-Jitsu builds strength and agility, both of which help in self-defense situations.
Women's Only Jiu-Jitsu BUILDS MUSCLE AND MAXIMIZES PHYSICAL FITNESS
Nobody wants to be the victim of a crime, and yet it happens to women every day. In a real life, potentially life threatening situation, typically the attacker is always going to look for a victim who they believe to be easy prey, to try to overpower their victim and get them to an extremely vulnerable position. The best way to avoid being harmed is to know how to defend yourself.
Our program incorporates Jiu-Jitsu training, one of the best forms of self-defense for women. Women learn to defend themselves from those dangerous positions and also use those situations to their advantage.
Even the smallest of women can defend themselves against a much larger attacker if they are being taught Jiu-Jitsu the correct way. It doesn’t require a large amount of strength or athleticism for self-defense, especially if the attacker or opponent is untrained.
Women's Only Jiu-Jitsu COMPETITIONS PROVIDE A UNIQUE CHALLENGE
It can be hard to get a great workout without someone to push you. If you want to be a total badass, the treadmill isn’t going to get you there.
Jiu-Jitsu is intense…but it’s a great way to get in shape and have FUN! Learning to use proper positioning and leverage to advance your positions requires mental and physical toughness. You’ll use every muscle.
A lot of women, who step on the mat initially just want to learn self-defense, usually end up taking their training to the next level in the sport! It’s almost like playing chess. You learn the basics, and then the counters to the basics; and then you begin to learn the counters to the counters and so on, until finally you’re playing the Jiu Jitsu game.

I cannot recommend Six Blades Jiu Jitsu La Quinta highly enough! The staff is extremely knowledgeable and professional. They have created an environment that my daughters LOVE, and that is beneficial for people of all skillsets - from elite athletes to bumbling beginners like me. I am so grateful to have Six Blades in our community, and my entire family is better because of them!

When I first came to the desert, I didn’t expect there to be any quality martial arts training. When I found six blades, I ate my own words. Between the staff and the other students it feels like a family setting. From the first instruction to actual sparring, I didn’t feel an ounce of pressure and I felt like everything was very well explained. I’ve had a little bit of training in the past, but Chris, Steve, and Jason were very attentive and very open to discussing concepts and movements I did not understand. Their understanding of the sport is equal to the highest level of competitors and I know that no matter what level I return out, I will always be both challenged and welcome as a member of the six glades family. I will definitely return if not for the training then just for the people of the atmosphere. Much love to them!

This is hands down the best place to learn and train Jiu Jitsu in the valley!
The head instructors are very thorough, give detailed instructions and will walk you through any issues you might have.
I used to train at another small academy and I always wondered if my professor was really as good as we thought, I feel this is a common question that every student must ask themselves but here at Six Blades there is no question.
The Hargett Brothers are the head instructors and they are world champion competitors, that are still actively competing now.
Six Blades teaches many lessons on an over all healthy active lifestyle, not just the fighting.
I am extremely grateful I found this gym.
