About our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Kids classes.

We begin every class with a few minutes of exercise to warm up the muscles improve stamina. Following the instructor will demonstrate a series of techniques and the students are then given time to practice them with one another under the watchful eye of the instructors. The students are guided and corrected on the moves they are practicing.

Next, the students are given some time to “spar” and to try to apply the techniques learned in a “real life scenario”. Not to worry, this is a done in a very safe environment under the supervision of professionals. Maintaining a healthy and safe environment for the kids is the number one priority during class.

Throughout the class the kid’s receive positive reinforcement and encouragement from the instructor and classmates.

At the end of class, we usually play a game with the kids to finish the class on a very fun note and with some extra exercise.

Mixed Martial Arts and Kids

Our kids program is mainly made of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, they will learn how to do takedowns, positions, submissions, to fall properly. But we also teach the kids the basics of Muay Thai kick boxing and boxing as well. This is important for two reasons.

First, in order to learn how to defend yourself it is also very important to learn what your opponent may be doing against you. If you know the mechanics and the basic principles of it and how it works, it is much easier to counter it.

Second, teaching the kids other skills that is fun to learn and it als helps break up the routine. What kid doesn't want to learn how to do that

Faqs on young girls training BJJ

As a kid, it is a perfect time to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu because they don't have that awkward teenage stage where they might feel uncomfortable when training with the opposite sex. One important aspect that is so often overlooked by many styles of martial arts is the fact that women when attacked are usually subdue and taken to ground, so ask yourself this questions; how would only knowing how to punch and kick help you when you have a bigger, heavier and stronger man on top of you? Brazilian Jiu Jitsu deals with this specific question and makes it possible for women to even the Plainfield when being attacked, giving them an opportunity to get away and get safe. The idea is not to try to fight back but to be able to remain safe and create an opportunity to escape.

Training BJJ as a young girl is a perfect time to learn the best self defense that would truly help them when they become young adults in high school, college, or life itself.
