Kids Program Detail: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is widely respected as one of--if not the best martial arts--for kids. Every class at our academy will teach your child valuable new skills that can be applied on and off the mat. Not only that, they are going to have a lot of fun, too! Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu does not rely on brute strength or size in order to be effective. This makes it a great choice for kids. Parents can be assured that their kids will be effectively armed against bullying. Recent statistics show that at least 1 of 4 kids is bullied at school, with rates climbing to 9 out of 10 in some areas. It is also reported that 160,000 students avoid going to school on any given day in order to escape bullying. Up to 80% of confrontations with bullies turn physical. BJJ can help keep your kids safe and teach them how to successfully diffuse a situation until help comes along, all without having to resort to seriously injuring anyone. What many parents love most about our kids’ Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes is the miraculous change they see in their kids’ attitudes. Principals are a big part of our kids’ program, where the students will learn not only to be more confident but also gain valuable character skills such as respect, discipline, loyalty, and teamwork. They learn how to work towards goals and develop a passion for something positive. Healthy living is central to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu philosophy. Enrolling them in a BJJ class is an incredible gift which can give them a great start to life and teach them the importance of staying in shape, as well as eating properly. A healthy body and a healthy mind go hand in hand. Those who become lifelong practitioners will realize many health benefits and avoid many medical conditions others suffer. Studies show that kids who train in martial arts are less likely to give into peer pressure, which can save much heartache as they grow. Additionally, Parenting Magazine has reported, “Martial arts actually helps teach self-discipline and socialization skills. In fact, many parents whose children have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) report great success with these programs because self-control and concentration are exactly the skills underdeveloped in ADHD kids.” Chief instructor Romulo Melo began training at a very early age himself and he would love to speak with you in person about the transformation he has seen in his own life, as well as what he has witnessed through training many other kids over the years.
