Yes! BJJ is one of the safest martial arts. Our instructors are trained to teach age-appropriate techniques in a controlled, supervised environment.
How often should my child attend?
We recommend 2-3 classes per week for optimal progress, but students can attend as many or as few as fits their schedule.
Student Success Stories
Real transformations from our students and their families
Alex Martinez
Yellow Belt"My son started at age 6 with zero confidence. After just 6 months of training, he's more disciplined, focused in school, and stands up to bullies with confidence (without fighting!). Professor Diego has been an amazing mentor."
Sarah Chen
Orange & Grey Belts"Both my kids train here and love it! They've made great friends, learned respect, and actually ask to go to class. The transformation in their focus and self-control has been incredible."
