Youth brazilian jiu jitsu

Starting at a young age, children need to enhance their sense of self, improve their physical health, and practice ways to evaluate danger and enhance their safety. When a child or teen faces a physical threat, such as a bully, they need to understand how to evaluate the situation and prevent injury to themselves.

In addition to learning to defend oneself, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s values, principles, and art set a foundation for discipline, focus, confidence, and a growth mindset for both children and teens.
