Last week my article was published in Jiu JIteira Magazine. I was honored to be on the front cover wrapped in my home country’s flag, proudly representing being the 1st Aussie female to be awarded a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. In this interview I discuss my journey as a female practitioner in a man’s world and the many issues that women have to face in this sport. These issue run deep and I am proud to be speaking up and brining awareness to them. I talk about being an empowered female who owns her feminine strength and why its not necessary to suppress your beauty and femininity in order to be taken seriously. I discuss solutions to bring necessary change to demolish the archaic patriarchal system that is in Jiu Jitsu and in society in general so that everyone can thrive. https://jiujiteiramagazine.com/sophia-mcdermott
I share many of my programs that support women’s learning and help to build a community. www.girls-ontop.com is my virtual online interactive platform where any woman can join to learn women specific Jiu Jitsu and do some awesome and fun live workouts with me in an safe and interactive class like setting.
