My wife is 48kg but is finding it extremely difficult to find training partners her own weight (outside of junior classes, of course). As a result, she's often giving away 10+ kilos even to the lightest of female partners. This isn't realistic competition prep, as she's hoping to compete at the IBJJF worlds next year and even competitors below 57kg are few and far between (she won't fight above 52kg).
I'm posting this to ask if any of MAP's BJJ folk train at gyms with lighter females, or know of gyms where they exist. My wife is a three-stripe white belt but is happy to train with anyone. She is based in Manchester, but I'm willing to drive her to any gym in the UK if suitable partners are available.
The same goes for judo clubs, too. Most kyu grade competitions for females are only -/+ 63kg, which is ridiculous, so she's looking at competitions abroad for better weight categories. Again, though, she needs the practice with lighter females before she steps on the mat.
Any help is much appreciated.
