Kids Program Detail: Mat Munchkins - The Mat Munchkins program is for kids 3-5 years old. This 30-minute class is full of fun games and simple techniques with the objective of building your child's confidence while getting them excited and ready for the transition into the Little Champs (Ages 5-7) classes. The Mat Munchkins class is scheduled every Monday (5:45-6:15PM). Each child must be accompanied by a parent in each Mat Munchkins class. Since the children will only be doing the techniques/games with grownups, the parent does not need to enroll in a separate membership, but does need to have their own uniform/gi. Little Champs® - The Little Champs program is for kids 5-7 years old. Through our attention grabbing curriculum, “Gracie Games”, we teach the Little Champs basic self-defense techniques that focus on leverage and control. Our goal is to make class so fun that the kids are asking to come back to class before leaving the building! Jr. Grapplers® - The Jr. Grapplers program is for children 8-12 years old. In the Jr. Grapplers, we focus on non-violent self defense techniques that teach children to “neutralize and negotiate” with the bullies. Within the Jr. Grapples program we teach and emphasize the “3 T’s” (Talk, Tell, and Tackle). The “3 T’s” help build confidence and verbal assertiveness when standing up to a bully. A child needs absolutely no experience to start jiu jitsu and the perfect time to start is now!

Woman Only Program Url: https://graciejiujitsusouthbend.com/women-empowered

Woman Only Program Detail: Women Empowered is the official Gracie self-defense program for women based on the techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). In this 15-lesson program, we will teach you how to neutralize the 20 most common attacks ranging from having your hair grabbed to being pinned to the ground by a weapon-bearing assailant. Each one-hour Women Empowered lesson addresses two techniques. You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience. Unlike most self-defense systems that rely heavily on strength, speed, and coordination, the techniques in the Women Empowered program employ leverage, technique, and timing, so anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, can make them work against larger opponents. Once you complete the Women Empowered program, you may test for promotion to pink belt! Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is the perfect self-defense system for women, but only if it is taught correctly. If you’re unsure about learning BJJ for fear of injury, embarrassment, or any other reason, then the Women Empowered program is perfect for you! If you’ve tried BJJ at another school and had a negative experience, give Women Empowered a chance, and we guarantee it will win you back to the mat!
