Overall Health and Fitness
Our Kid’s Martial Arts program is so much more than just takedowns and grappling. Fighteria proudly introduces our young students to the excitement and complexity of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Our students increase their balance, strength, coordination, and flexibility, while learning important skills like team work, respect, effective communication, and focus. Parents will see immediate results in their child's behavior at home, at school, and in peer relationships. BJJ is a wonderful martial art that safely reinforces the concepts of consequences, listening, determination, and goal setting. We work closely with our students to help them understand how their body moves and how to develop new and exciting techniques that will build as they progress through their learning.
Is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Safe For Kids?
YES!
Controlled Environment, No High Impact!
Injuries may occur in high impact scenarios. Jiu-Jitsu is a contact sport but lacks the high-impact aspect. Other sports such as boxing, football, and even basketball allow striking or hitting. In general, younger children do not have the motor skills and experience to play safely in high impact sports. Jiu-Jitsu is a ground base martial art focused primarily on grappling - NO Striking and NO Slamming! In Jiu-Jitsu it is difficult to get hurt even when grappling at a high intensity - Jiu-Jitsu is referred to as “the gentle art” for a reason. Rather than using brute force and strength, we focus on utilizing leverage and body movement so that even smaller individuals can defend themselves against larger, stronger opponents. In the case of a submission hold your child can submit by tapping and no one gets hurt.
Of course there is always a risk of injury, even when playing in the park. At Fighteria it is our goal to provide a safe, clean environment where our students can learn and grow together. Aside from the techniques your child will learn, we focus heavily on personal growth through discipline, self-control, respect, and team work. BJJ is one of the safest sports you can expose your child to at a young age that will not only exercise their body and mind, but also give them the confidence they need on and off of the mat!
