Anna — a black belt student who has been training for over 20 years — joins Tim and Steve to discuss some of the differences between women and men training in the dojo:

  • There are no weight divisions or gender divisions in life — life is not fair
  • Women often have a disadvantage in the dojo when training with men
  • Many men can learn a thing or two from women in the dojo
  • Frustration is a part of our lives — we must deal with it

“There's something so special about a woman who dominates in a man's world. It takes a certain grace, strength, intelligence, fearlessness, and the nerve to never take no for an answer.” — Rihanna
