If there are key figures in my BJJ life whom I look up to, one of them would definitely be Kyra Gracie. Most women BJJ practitioners I know see her as an inspiration, a role model, a bad-ass competitor. Her grace on and off the mat surely proves just how dangerous she is -- her charm makes you think she's just a cutie, but don't make the mistake of messing with her because she can definitely squeeze the life out of you. Her recent win in ADCC along with her numerous BJJ world titles just show how much of a female killer she is. On the mat, that is.

So Kyra Gracie doing a seminar in Singapore is definitely a good news for female BJJ practitioners in Southeast Asia! Here are the details taken from Evolve-MMA Singapore site:
DATE: October 8 & 9, 2011

VENUE: Evolve Far East Square

I wish it was held when I was in Singapore last month. I probably couldn't go, but if you are, please do share your experience! I would definitely love to meet her!
