Kids Program Detail: Believe it or not, Jiu-Jitsu is the most beneficial form of non-violent self defense for children and teenagers. During these classes, a child can learn falling, takedowns, controls, and ‘tap outs’ among the older students. Unlike other martial arts, our daily classes do not incorporate any punching or kicking elements but focus primarily on grappling. Through demonstration, the students will learn a series of techniques in each lesson, and after preparation, they will have the opportunity to implement the technique in a supervised and control sparring session. Due to the fact that we have removed all dangerous kicking and punching from training, students can spar during training sessions as well to increase their level of proficiency in the sport. Children of all ages enjoy grappling and can learn how to use these movements with peers.

Woman Only Program Detail: The main reason that women give for training in jiu-jitsu “this is how women can protect themselves”. There are many reasons for learning jiu-jitsu, it’s ideal for smaller and weaker opponents who need to dominate a large opponent using a technique in lieu of strength. As a woman in the U.S., there is an assault or a beating every nine seconds. Every woman in the U.S. has a 1 in 5 chance of being a victim of rape in her lifetime. doesn’t it make sense that learning jiu-jitsu is an ideal means of self-defense for the smaller weaker opponent? Jiu-jitsu is more than simply learning self-defense. It’s a way to get into shape, learn lifelong habits, make lifelong friendships, and have a lot of fun while doing it. If you know someone, male or female, who is considering taking a martial arts class, jiu-jitsu is an ideal choice. There’s no need to be worried. You’re not going to have to choke someone out unless you choose to.
