With Jiu-Jitsu, your child can develop:
- Greater confidence and self-respect

- Coached and effective responses to verbal abuse
- Increased responsibility and manners
Jiu-Jitsu For All Ages
We know that as your child grows, there are different things that they can handle and that they will encounter. That's why we've set up a few different programs that are either age-specific or ability specific so that way your child can learn in a group of their peers and grow at a speed that is comfortable for them.
We offer 3 different Kid's Jiu-Jitsu Classes:
Little Kids Class (4-7 Years Old)
Sometimes learning is hard to grasp for younger kids, so we've turned this class into a play session! Instead of having to focus on learning, we teach Jiu-Jitsu through "playing" Jiu-Jitsu. Instead of feeling like they are being told to do something, your children get to come and play games, and secretly learn the foundations of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. These games also develop their reflexes so they will be able to graduate to our Big Kids Class.
Big Kids Class (8-12 Years Old)
Preteen years are often the hardest in school since bullying is most prevalent at that time. We address that issue by focusing primarily on our Bully Prevention Program in our Big Kids Class. We teach nearly all of the techniques taught in the Adult Jiu-Jitsu Class and focus on teaching your child how to defend themselves from any type of physical attack. Without having to throw a punch or a kick, they will be able to neutralize a bully's attack and establish control over them until help arrives. This instills a great deal of confidence and self-respect as a fun by-product!
No-Gi Kids Classes (4-7 & 8-12 Years Old)
At our Kids No-Gi Class, we offer an empowering and fun experience that builds confidence and lifelong skills. This class introduces kids to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu without the traditional "gi," allowing them to focus on grappling techniques and self-defense in a more practical, everyday setting. Your kids will seamlessly absorb the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu while having a blast. Our approach ensures that they learn self-defense techniques, balance, and coordination in a playful, engaging way.
