Kids Program Detail: Modern Martial Arts and Family Fitness offers Jiu Jitsu for kids in two age groups. Our Little Warriors program is for children four to seven. The class consists of an adequate warm-up, skill enhancing games, fundamental techniques, and supervised live sparring sessions. Little Warriors meet from 5 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. Junior Jiu-Jitsu is for youth aged 8 to 15. The class closely resembles the adult class structure. Students perform fundamental drills as part of the warm-up. Lessons include multiple techniques per session to emphasize chaining attacks together. Students have more opportunity to engage in live sparring. Matches will be supervised to ensure safety. Junior Jiu-Jitsu meets from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Both groups may attend the 10:30 a.m. Saturday class. Parents with children in both age groups will work with the instructor to determine which group is most appropriate for their specific situation. As pre-teens and teens develop skill and maturity, they may be invited to join the adult class.

Woman Only Program Detail: The adult's class is for both men and women, but we do offer a women's only option for those that don't feel comfortable just yet. You will be instructed by the head coach, and any other women that want to join! Indispensable to Mixed Martial Arts Fighters, the art of Jiu-Jitsu focuses on the closest range of fighting. Ground Grappling is extremely common in self-defense situations. Jiu-Jitsu provides essential skills for dealing with this scenario. Jiu-Jitsu’s roots lie with the Samurai of Feudal Japan. These warriors developed skills to deal with adversaries wearing armor. The joint locks, entanglements and strangulations found in Jiu-Jitsu allowed the Samurai to fight effectively while their mobility was limited and their weapons were either not available or not suitable to the situation. One significant difference between Jiu-Jitsu and many other martial arts is the focus on realistic training with fully resisting opponents. Students train the skills of the curriculum through live sparring. Ranking in the system follows the guidelines of the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation. Students begin as white belts, progress to blue, purple, brown and black. Students with previous experience will be recognized with the rank awarded by their former instructor. Women's Jiu-Jitsu meets weeknights at: 6:15 p.m. Monday and Friday
