Danielle Guevara: Staying in the Fight - Competition, Community, and Roll Models
This week on Chokeholds & Chill, we sit down with Danielle Guevara — a longtime pillar in women’s jiu jitsu and a living example of what it means to grow with the sport.
For over a decade, Danielle has attended Roll Models Women’s Only Grappling Camp — returning year after year not just to train, but to build community, sharpen her game, and invest in women’s jiu jitsu when it wasn’t nearly as visible as it is today.
And this July, she steps onto those same mats as an instructor.
From camper to coach.
In this episode, Danielle shares what Roll Models has meant to her over the last 10+ years, how the camp helped shape her journey, and why spaces built intentionally for women still matter.
We also talk about:
• Staying committed to jiu jitsu long term
• Competing as a woman in a constantly evolving sport
• Leadership through consistency
• Building community instead of waiting to be included
• What it feels like to come full circle and now teach at a camp that helped shape you
Danielle’s story isn’t about overnight success — it’s about staying in the room, doing the work, and becoming the kind of athlete and mentor she once looked up to.
If you’ve ever attended a women’s camp, thought about attending one, or wondered what kind of impact they truly have — this episode is for you.
