What to expect

Our kids programme is based on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, with a focus on practical grappling skills. Classes are divided by age and ability, so every child trains with others at a similar stage.

Kids learn to listen, respect their training partners and look after each other, alongside real self defence skills. We keep it fun, because kids who enjoy moving grow into adults who keep moving.
