Kids Program Detail: Many parents place their kids in martial arts with the hopes that it will teach them respect and discipline, others out of concern that their child is being bullied – or even that their child is the bully, and still others because they have fond memories of their own martial arts classes as children. Whatever your reason for looking into Brazilian jiu jitsu for your child, know that we understand that choosing where to go can be an intimidating task. Our kids program is without peer in Portland. Here at RGAPDX, we know that it is important to train and learn to use your body in a way that not only promotes growth but is also sustainable – which is to say that safety is of utmost importance to us. We take great pride in teaching things like learning to fall without injury and to treat your training partner with respect, how to use leverage to escape from an opponent and defend yourself without punching and kicking, all while having an awesome time. Our team is always looking for new training partners and we have some of the friendliest, respectful, and fiercest girls and boys around.

Woman Only Program Detail: Women’s Jiu Jitsu – Fundamentals: Women are welcomed and encouraged to attend our co-ed classes, however, we also recognize that co-ed classes are a barrier of entry for many women. As a day one beginner who is learning the basics of self-defense and how to use your body efficiently, feeling comfortable and safe is necessary for effective learning. This class covers the same curriculum of our Jiu Jitsu Fundamentals classes, only taught in an all women environment by our coach Hannah Sharp. This curriculum is ongoing, you can join in anytime. Women’s Jiu Jitsu – Intermediate: This is the next level up for after you get your bearings in the fundamentals class. Instruction will more thoroughly explore the basics, introduce some more advanced techniques. Sparring intensity will increase, and though it is not a class focused on competition, time will be spent preparing those women who do want to compete.
