NEW KIDS CLASSES: Mondays and Wednesday 6pm
Starting in April
If your looking for the right martial art to enroll your child or young adult in, look no further. Brazilian Jiujitsu is the perfect style to begin your kids introduction to the world of self defense and martial arts. Why you may ask? Seven end all reasons why Jiu-Jitsu is the perfect martial art for your kid.
1 FUN Kids are natural grapplers and often grapple with each other just for the pure fun of it. So introducing them to a grappling style martial art will feel like natural fun to them.
2 Security The moves taught are effective. Kids training in Jiu Jitsu will not develop a false sense of security. We have all heard the unfortunate story of the poor kid who, despite receiving his black belt in a traditional martial art, still suffered a overpowering defeat by the hand of the neighborhood tough kid. False confidence and security can be very dangerous. But the advancement and knowledge developed in Jiu Jitsu is sure, giving your kid a reliable realistic sense of their true abilities with no nonsense techniques that they can count on.
3 Mental strengthening In Jiu Jitsu kids develop mental habits required for overcoming adversity both within and outside themselves that will be applicable in all areas of their life outside the dojo.
4 Physical conditioning Jiu Jitsu does more than just get kids off the couch. It transforms the whole body and beginning this transformation early as a kid can get them on the road to continual good health that will go with them throughout their lives.
5 Pride Being part of those that train in the rigorous art of Jiu Jitsu can be a continual well of positive pride that your kid can enjoy their whole life. Jiu Jitsu promotes a positive self image esteem that can be a invaluable anchor their entire lives.
6 Comradery friendships forged in sweat and strain on the mat are strong. Often deeper and longer lasting than normal friendships, they come out of genuine respect that is earned by the shared hardship of the enduring struggle Jiu Jitsu training requires. Those that shake hands on the mat shake hands for life.
7 Control Possibly the greatest reason to choose Jiu Jitsu over all other martial arts. When it comes to self defense and neutralizing a aggressive situation Jiu Jitsu offers your kid a distinct advantage over all other martial arts. In other martial arts to neutralize a situation, blunt force trauma by strikes is required to disable a opponent from attacking. This can have lasting negative consequences at school or a neighborhood park. But Jiu Jitsu offers control over a opponent with no need for blunt force damage if the practitioner feels it’s unnecessary. Plus, the experience of being taken down and utterly controlled is a lasting lesson that a bully or aggressive classmate will not soon forget. The feeling of being powerless under the dominating pressure of Jiu Jitsu gets the point across even better than strikes and in the end does far less physical damage. Giving your kid absolute control will not only boost their self confidence but it will give them a sense of control over many other aspects of their life which the benefits of are priceless. In the end CONTROL is king and no other martial art does it better than Jiu Jitsu.
