KIDS BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU
ABOUT OUR KIDS PROGRAM
Our kids program is specifically designed to encourage students to be strong, confident and independent in a fun and focused environment.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teaches kids how to use leverage, positioning, and technique to control an opponent without strikes. Students learn takedowns, ground control, escapes and submissions through learning technique, partner drills and supervised sparring.
Our kids program is currently for ages 7-12. Private and small group training is available for younger children.
