Kids and Teen Jiu Jitsu Classes
Our GBK program is structured similarly to adult courses, with modifications made to reach the different age ranges in the class. Jiu-Jitsu classes for kids begin with the building blocks that are needed to teach the fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu. We have developed a curriculum that is structured in a way that shows kids and teens the value of routine, cooperation, and self-awareness.
We have three tiers of classes that address varying degrees of skill and knowledge.
GB1 – This course can be thought of as Jiu-Jitsu for beginners. This course teaches the fundamentals and principles of BJJ as well as the skills you need to grow personally in a Jiu-Jitsu lifestyle.
