It was a wild day as three major women’s mma stories hit the internet. Jessi Taran (a.k.a. ‘Helen von Mott’ pictured left) has just been hired by the UFC gym to be the head instructor for the Women’s Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program, at their very first training facility – opening this November in Concord, CA.
