Hi,
I've been a member here for awhile but post very little. I read the post and feel that the members here are very informative. Here goes my question: my karate class has been invited to join a BJJ seminar. My first instinct was to take the seminar. All the guys in class are going but the women are not interested. I being a women am conflicted because I do want to go. My question is for anyone who is familiar with BJJ, if I am the only women taking the class and say maybe 30 men will I feel uncomfortable and will I get anything out of the class? I would apprectiate anyone's input on this subject.

Thanks

There tend to be fewer women in BJJ classes and your feeling about being uncomfortable is natural, but if the school has a good instructor - you'll find that your classmates (and instructor) are there to train (and help you) and will go easy with you to get you comfortable.
