The GB Kids BJJ program will get children fit and teach them valuable, life-long skills (discipline, self-defense, bully-proofing, confidence).

Professor Daniel "Montanha" de Lima warms up the kids at the start of their class. Kids train in a safe and friendly environment, while learning techniques that can enrich their lives.

Kid's class: 8 year olds and up. We are committed to providing a safe and fun learning environment where your child or teen can achieve their very best. We offer tailored programs for different age groups, each with age-appropriate curriculum geared to build a solid foundation for techniques and continue to challenge and inspire our students. Effective methods become staples in Jiu-Jitsu training and ineffective techniques are discarded. As a result, our students are constantly learning new moves and perfecting old ones. In our kids’ program, we specialize in teaching children age 4 to 16 years.

Kids class 6 to 8 year olds. The physical skills and attributes your child will develop will continually improve because our system is on-going, not “seasonal” like most sports. Our system is about a lifestyle, one that makes kids better people overall – on the mats and off the mats.

Pictured: 8 year old students and up. Our kids program is exploding! Professor Daniel "Montanha" de Lima truly believes that every child has the right to know how to defend themselves. Jiu-jitsu increases fitness and self-esteem in children. Your child will reap many benefits in a safe, caring environment.

Boost your child's confidence, both physically and mentally. Jiu-Jitsu gives kids something to feel good about, and develops a bond with the martial arts that they will carry throughout their lives.

Jiu-Jitsu has many benefits for kids, including improved social skills and confidence. Kids stay motivated and feel good about their progress.

Fridays at 6:30 PM. There is a new class on our schedule! Every Friday, starting with kickboxing at 6:30 pm. This class, known as “Fight Club Night” is half striking and half no-gi grappling. The class is open to all students.
