YOUTH BJJ

Moving with Purpose

Our Younglings program (ages 8–12) is for kids ready to train harder, move smarter, and build real skills that last. This isn’t playtime—it’s focused training that teaches strength, control, and confidence.

In this black and white photo, two girls are practicing martial arts on a mat in front of a wall that says "THE MATS." One girl in a dark gi is positioned over the other, who is wearing a white gi and lying on her back.

What They’ll Learn:

  • Strength & Control: Move their bodies effectively and safely
  • Focus & Discipline: Follow instructions, stay present, and push through challenges
  • Respect & Teamwork: Value training partners and support each other
  • Confidence & Leadership: Apply lessons from the mat to school, sports, and everyday life

“The Younglings program has completely changed how my son approaches challenges. He’s more focused, confident, and respectful”

Steve M.

Who it’s for:

  • High-energy kids who need a challenge
  • Children ready to build focus, grit, and confidence
  • Young athletes who want real skills that matter

We don’t tame kids—we teach them to grow. On the mats and everywhere else, this is BJJ that works.

My Child doesn’t have experience, is that a problem?

Great! Many of our students start without any experience. We will meet your child where they are at, starting with the foundations of coordination, moving their body, following directions, and then learning how to interact with teammates.

What should they wear?

Athletic clothing without pockets, zippers or clasps.

Please also bring a water bottle, staying hydrated is important!

When Is Class?

Monday, Wednesday & Friday from 5:30-6:25

What age can they start?

The Youngling Program is for ages 8-12. If they are 5-8 years old the Groms Program is for them!
