Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) revolves around the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend him/herself against a bigger, stronger, heavier opponent by using leverage and weight distribution. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling and self-defense situations.

Our first priority for Kids and Youth BJJ is SAFETY. We train students to protect themselves and protect their fellow classmates.

The benefits of training BJJ as a child include:

• Improves coordination and motor skills

• Helps build a healthy lifestlye habit through physical activity

• Learning from failures, martial arts are learned by consistent training and overcoming shortcomings at first

• Self-defense and confidence

Requirements for classes:

• The traditional BJJ uniform is called a gi and is required for all classes.
  A gi can be purchased online, we can recommend brands for you after you get started.

• BJJ is trained barefoot, so nails and toenails must be clipped short and filed.

• All jewlery must be removed before class.

• Clean clothes and clean bodies are required for all classes.
