Gracie Barra Kids

Introduce your child to Jiu-Jitsu and help them build confidence, discipline, respect, focus, physical ability, and essential self-defence skills - all in a safe and supportive environment. By practicing Jiu-Jitsu, children learn valuable skills they wouldn’t develop from other sports.

Empowering Kids Through Jiu-Jitsu

At Gracie Barra, Jiu-Jitsu is more than a martial art - it’s a path to confidence, resilience, and respect. Through structured training, kids learn focus, discipline, and how to overcome challenges.

In a safe, supportive environment, our certified instructors help students build strength, coordination, and essential life skills. Surrounded by a strong sense of team and belonging, they become part of a global family - growing on and off the mats.

By practising Jiu-Jitsu, children learn valuable skills they wouldn’t develop from other sports - like staying calm under pressure, using technique over strength, and solving problems with focus and confidence.
