Kids Program Detail: Kids BJJ? You better believe it! Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a popular martial art that blends science, philosophy and physical application toward self defense. Kid’s learn not only self defense, but improved motor skills and athleticism. Our kids also learn important life skills like introducing themselves with a firm hand hand shake and good eye contact. They learn to be respectful of their coaches and training partners, all while having fun and meeting new friends. At Vandry BJJ Academy, we have children’s classes for the ages of 7-15. Kids learn to train with sparring partners their size, under the coaches close supervision, but also older kids learn to be mentors to younger kids. BJJ has no room for egos, our academy nurtures and establishes bonds of communication along with the athletic “team” approach for children. Martial arts has been used for the pitch of the “bully-proof” for decades; in which guaranteeing children’s ability to overcome a bully is sold as long as the parent’s pay dues. At Vandry BJJ, there is more to our approach, new techniques, constant mat time, sparring with different bodies and speeds which teaches your child to face a variety of challenges in BJJ and in life. Children who wish to compete will learn competition rules, but our priority is not forcing children to compete, rather it is to develop them as Martial Artists. Whether your child competes or not, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu helps solve some important learning lessons for children.

Woman Only Program Detail: Women train in our regular classes, as we have a great environment for learning, where everyone is welcome. We regularly have all belt ranks in classes, and our upper belts have trained with women for many years. They know how to utilize technique over strength to make sparring beneficial for their partners, even when there is a big size or strength difference. We also have our lead female Black Belt, Chandra, who is always ready to take a new female under her wing. If you have a group of women that would like to try Jiu-Jitsu in a women’s only setting, please call us to set up a Women’s Self Defense Seminar.
