Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Martial Arts for Kids in Maple Ridge

Kids will begin by socializing to promote comfort and become a part of the group. Then, they will build mat awareness, learn and develop balance, coordination, agility, respect, discipline, sportsmanship, the rules and basic techniques. Kids will then start light sessions of training to familiarize them with contact with a partner and gradually start to train with bigger partners to alleviate fear and grow their self-confidence.

Jiu-Jitsu is much more than just self defense and when your child trains in our Maple Ridge martial arts program, you’ll be giving them an extra edge in all areas of life. Learning BJJ in its purest form will bring out the best in your child.

Beginning with the basics of self-respect, our program teaches your child valuable life skills and knowledge to help them be better in all areas of life. Our classes are designed with the right amount of fun and discipline to make sure they stay focused and want to come back week after week.

As training progresses, there are some common side effects. Your children will develop exceptional self-control, which helps them process their emotions more effectively. Additionally, their self-confidence develops as they feel more assured in their ability to defend themselves if they were attacked.

Self-control and reliance will develop an inner calmness in the event of chaotic or scary situations. Children will think clearly and respond with more logical actions. As other kids notice these character traits, they will look up to your child as a leader.

We like to say that our Maple Ridge BJJ program will help your child to be a “Champion In Life!”. Your child will be exposed to new character building lessons every month and the instructors will also look for how these traits are demonstrated while attending class.
