WHAT DO OTHER PARENTS THINK?

Hear From Families Who've Already Taken the First Step

Darren Thurgood

"Honestly the coaches here are one of a kind, we have 4 children ranging from 5–11 and they adore the coaches. Providing confidence, discipline, skill, knowledge and fun. Couldn't ask for a better place for my kids to learn an amazing skill."

Sapphire Alchikh

"It’s been the best decision we’ve made sending our son here. The way in which they teach gives him a real confidence boost. His fitness, mental and social skills are all really improving.

He’s finally found something he’s passionate about."

Thomas Green

"I started taking my girls to the kids classes about a year ago and had all the concerns a normal parent has with little ones starting any kind of martial arts. Luckily, coach Jego and coach Ayham have been patient, supportive and excellent teachers. Couldn't ask for better."

BJJ CLASSES DESIGNED FOR THEIR AGE

TWO PROGRAMMES.
THE RIGHT CHALLENGE AT EVERY STAGE.

CUBS | AGES 4–7

For younger children, the priority is creating a positive introduction to BJJ. Our Cubs programme combines movement, learning and structured play to help children become comfortable interacting and trying new things.

They'll begin developing:

  • Balance and coordination

  • Listening and attention

  • Respect for coaches and training partners

JUNIORS & TEENS | AGES 8–16

As children grow, the challenges grow with them and keep them engaged. Our Juniors & Teens programme introduces more technical Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu while continuing to develop confidence, discipline and resilience.

Students learn to:

  • Think through problems under pressure

  • Improve fitness and coordination

  • Work constructively with training partners

MORE THAN JUST AN after-school ACTIVITY

Give Them Something to Look Forward to Every Week

School asks children to concentrate, communicate, handle setbacks and become more independent. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gives them another place to practise those skills while staying active, learning something new and having something positive to look forward to each week.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THEIR FIRST CLASS

We Keep the First Step Simple

Their first class is about helping them feel comfortable, meet the coaches and experience BJJ without any pressure to perform. They'll be guided throughout the session and introduced to exercises appropriate for their age and experience.

Our promise is simple: a welcoming, supportive first experience with no pressure to perform or join.

Depending on their age and class, they may experience:

  • Movement and coordination games

  • Simple Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques

  • Partner drills

  • Balance and body-control exercises

  • Problem-solving activities

WHAT SHOULD THEY BRING?

For their first session, comfortable sports clothing is enough. There's no need to buy a uniform or specialist equipment before they try the class. Parents are also welcome to stay and watch.

STILL NOT SURE?

COMMON FAQ FROM PARENTS

My child has never done martial arts before. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Most children start as complete beginners and are introduced to BJJ gradually.

Which programme should I choose?

Our Cubs programme is for ages 4–7.

Our Juniors & Teens programme is for ages 8–16.

If you're unsure which class is most appropriate, we can help.

Can I watch the class?

Yes. Parents are welcome to stay and watch.

My child is shy. Will they be okay?

Shyness is very common when children try something new. There's no expectation that they'll feel comfortable or confident immediately. The goal is to help them settle in gradually.

My child has loads of energy. Is BJJ suitable?

Yes. BJJ gives children a structured way to use their energy while also requiring them to listen, think and follow instructions.

Does my child need to be fit?

No. Fitness and coordination develop through regular training. They don't need to arrive with either.

Is BJJ just for boys?

No. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is suitable for boys and girls.

Will they get hurt?

BJJ is a physical activity, so bumps and minor knocks can happen, as they can in any sport.

Classes are coached and structured around children's age and experience, with an emphasis on controlled, respectful training.

Will learning martial arts encourage fighting?

The purpose is the opposite. Good martial arts training teaches control, respect and responsibility.

Children learn that knowing how to handle themselves does not mean looking for opportunities to prove it.

THIS AUTUMN, LET THEM TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT

ONE FREE CLASS COULD BE THE START OF SOMETHING THEY LOVE

They don't need to be confident, sporty or experienced.

They don't need to know anyone.

They just need the opportunity to try.
