Watching children practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is so much fun- because it comes so natural to them. You see, Jiu-Jitsu is almost like wrestling. The main difference is that we’re not teaching them to pin each other and win a sport match. We’re teaching them life skills- like how to overcome adversity, how to handle stress, to show respect, and to deal with bullies without fighting.
We’re also teaching them that punching and kicking someone is not OK. See, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches that the best way to defend yourself is by getting in close to the person and controlling them using technique and leverage.

It’s something that most people are completely oblivious of, which makes it that much easier for our students to utilize the techniques if need be. Add to that the fact that to the kids it’s just like playing, and you have the perfect formula for producing responsible, respectful and confident youngsters.
