KIDS JIU JITSU

We offer fun and challenging Jiu Jitsu classes for kids ages 8-13. Our instructors focus on teaching fundamental jiu-jitsu techniques that not only help develop physical strength and agility but also build up confidence, respect, and discipline in young practitioners. ​

HOW DOES JIU JITSU BENEFIT KIDS?

Jiu jitsu provides kids with physical and mental skills in a fun setting. It fosters discipline, respect, and teamwork while improving strength and coordination. Children learn self-defense, boost their confidence, and build friendships, which enhance their social and professional development.

CLASS STRUCTURE

Classes begin with the traditional martial arts line-up and quick bow in. Students will line up in a ranking order - students with the highest belt rank will be on the front, right and ranks will descend down to the left. Following the line-up, students will do a short instructor-led warmup and drill some basic techniques.

Once warmups are complete, students will learn the technique of the day. Techniques can be takedowns, passes, holding, submissions, etc. This is the studious portion where students lock-in and focus on learning details and techniques that make jiu jitsu effective.

Should there be time remaining in the class, students may get to partake in fun, jiu-jitsu related games or instructor-led live grappling rounds!

Students are NOT expected to know all of this on day one - instructors will guide them every step of the way!
