Project Description
Why Should Your Child Train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
Designed for children 6-12 years of age, our Youth Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program is an effective, practical martial art that teaches children non-violent self-defense and conflict resolution skills.
Our Youth BJJ classes begin with warm-up drills designed to build stamina, strength, and speed. After the warm-up, students are shown a series of techniques. Although the main focus of the class is on grappling, we also implement safe take-down techniques. After the techniques are practiced, we allow students to drill (spar) each technique in a controlled, supervised environment.
