Discipline, Control and Self Control
An amazing benefit of the high learning challenge of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a lot of children take the “on the mat” etiquette into other areas of their life. Time and time again we have seen children respect others and themselves much more. focus their learning and listening skills in their school work and take leadership roles much more with interest and integrity.
Taking the Next Step!
When and if your child is ready to take the ultimate challenge, they may want to test their skill in competition based Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. We support their decision and will work towards planning their Jiu-Jitsu game and hone their skills to be ready for battle! Competition is exciting. exhilarating and of course, challenging. No matter the outcome of the day as long as they are proud of themselves and they did their best. We will support your child no matter! No child HAS to compete in order to get their next stripe or obtain the next belt. its just another part of the journey.
