Kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
​
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) it is an effective, practical martial art that prepares kids to protect themselves in a self-defense situation. It’s also a fantastic way for kids to stay fit and learn hands-on about discipline, commitment, and teamwork.
The program at Blast MMA accepts children from 7 to 13 years old.
Our program at is designed to instill confidence and self-discipline while improving balance, coordination, problem solving skills, and mental toughness.
Each class includes a warm-up, technical instruction and an instructor-supervised drilling or sparring session. Students train both with the gi (uniform) and without as it is important to understand how to control your opponent in a variety of ways. Assistant instructors are routinely utilized to maintain a great student/teacher ratio on the mat.
​
In the Blast MMA's Kids Jiu Jitsu program, belts are awarded on a merit based system. All promotions are earned and are awarded based on sportsmanship, leadership, knowledge of technique and attendance. Blast MMA rejects the culture of the “belt factory” that some martial arts have become. We do not believe in “belt tests” in the traditional sense nor is there ever a fee for a belt promotion. Students are encouraged to be competitive when appropriate, but emphasis is placed on improving skills while maintaining good sportsmanship and peer leadership. Students in the program view peers as teammates rather than opponents. All of our kids classes are structured within a friendly and fun atmosphere.
