Brentwood Brazlian Jiu-Jitsu offers mixed martial arts classes to children ages 5 - 15 years old at our main location in Brentwood. We provide kids with essential training in:
- Character
- Respect
- Self-Defense
- Balance
- Coordination
- Fitness
- and Fun
Our program uses games to teach fundamental movements. Kids learn through playing.
The discipline and self-confidence that children acquire in our Kids Jiu-Jitsu program helps them grow into well-rounded adults and empowers them to more effectively handle real world problems, such as bullying. We introduce kids to an active, healthy lifestyle, and build the character, self-esteem and interpersonal skills necessary for peaceful conflict resolution while stressing the importance of safety and personal responsibility. Kids with character have powerful coping strategies for dealing with and resolving all types of confrontations.
Why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the best martial arts for your child
Our structured classes instill discipline and work-ethic in kids.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu differs from Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Kung Fu and other martial arts because of its emphasis on grappling instead of punches and kicks. Our program teaches children basic striking techniques, but we also ensure that each child learns what to do on the ground by covering takedowns, reversals, sweeps, escapes, and submissions into an integrated method of self-defense. Since these techniques rely on leverage and not size or strength (unlike martial arts that focus on punching and kicking) a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner is able to defeat much larger and stronger opponents. This, coupled with the fact that most fights, including confrontations with bullies, end up on the ground, makes Jiu-Jitsu the most effective martial art for children.
Kids get a great workout while learning important self-defense skills.
Our "Little Ninja" program for kids ages 5-10 and "Young Dragons" for kids ages 11-15 are custom designed to develop age appropriate life skills that every young person needs with active FUN that every child loves!
