Gracie Barra Lakeway Self-Defense Summer Camp Schedule
May 30th – June 2nd: Bullyproof Self-Defense Camp
Objective: This camp will be focusing on the basics of self-defense. We will be working on breaking grips, holds and learning how to disengage from an attacker tactically. Our goal is to teach kids about safe ways to protect themselves from an attacker.
We’ll explore how to get out of grips, holds and how to learn how to fall properly. We will also learn how to get back up safely and engage with non-striking ways to defend. As part of the curriculum, we will be covering some light takedowns as well as some of the fundamentals of applying self-defense in a situation that requires it, without trying to punch or kick a “bully”.
Days: Tuesday through Friday (Due to Memorial Day Holiday)
Time: 1-4P
Capacity 20
June 5th – June 9th: Bullyproof Self-Defense Part 2!
For this series, we will be focusing on some of the concepts we learned in week 1 and move into other self-defense situations, particularly from the ground position. This week, we will also cover striking defense. Please note, these camps can be taken individually or separately. They are structured so you do not need to come to Part 1 to understand part 2!
Days: Monday through Friday
Time: 1-4P
Capacity 20
July 14th: Competition Camp: Takedown, Control, Submit
This camp will be for students only (Ages 7-12).
We’ll be working and drilling some common takedowns and work right into submissions.
Each class will be a combination of techniques and focused primarily on points scoring and submitting for jiu-jitsu competition. The Gi will be required to participate.
Days: Monday through Friday
*Time: 1:30-3:30P
Capacity 20
July 31st – August 4th: Back to School Bully Awareness
This camp will be similar to camps 1 and 2, except we will be adding more takedown offense.
The role of takedowns is important in jiu-jitsu because it’s how we get attackers to the ground, where they no longer present a danger to us. Each class will be focused on escaping grips and holds as well as how to turn these grips and holds into counter-takedowns.
Days: Monday through Friday
Time: 1-4P
Capacity 20
Ok, that’s all for today!
