Audra Murzycki competes in a beginner-level Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournament. She was inadvertently struck by a fellow beginner in competition, and carried on sporting a black-eye. Audra however insists the sport is centered on "finding community, finding an inner-toughness that you didn't know existed, and having self-defense, especially for women." Courtesy Photo.
