Is it your first time? See how we protect and guide our new students here.
We believe that for a child to learn, they first have to love what they are doing. That’s why our program for ages 4–7 focuses on building coordination and discipline through fun, high-energy classes. We use a game-based curriculum to teach fundamental movements without the pressure, allowing kids to learn respect and focus while burning off energy. Whether they are training in the Gi or No-Gi, your child will experience a positive, structured atmosphere where progress is celebrated and learning is genuinely enjoyable.
Why BJJ Is Amazing for Young Kids
Children aged 4–7 are in a golden window for learning fundamental movement, balance, and social confidence. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the perfect activity for this developmental stage because it engages the mind and body simultaneously. Through our classes, students naturally develop essential physical skills like coordination, body awareness, balance, and agility. Beyond the athletics, we use the mats to teach listening skills, focus, and a deep respect for coaches and classmates. It is a holistic approach that builds healthy routines and discipline, ensuring your child learns these vital life lessons without ever getting hit or hurt.
Gi and No-Gi Classes (Both Are Offered)
To provide a complete martial arts education, we offer both traditional Gi classes and No-Gi sessions for this age group. In our Gi (Uniform) classes, children learn the structure and tradition of Jiu Jitsu. They wear the kimono to master basic grips, learn how to move safely within the uniform, and follow the classic belt progression system. In our No-Gi classes, the focus shifts to athleticism and speed. Without the uniform to hold onto, kids learn a faster-paced wrestling style that emphasizes natural movement, simple takedown games, and quick reactions. Both styles are fun, safe, and age-appropriate—and together, they create a comprehensive foundation for your child’s growth.
What Class Looks Like (Ages 4–7)
Our curriculum is specifically structured to keep young students engaged from start to finish. We balance discipline with fun by using high-energy games to teach real martial arts skills. Instead of long lectures, we focus on playful warmups, simple techniques, and supervised partner drills that keep them moving. The goal is to create a positive association with training, so we prioritize encouragement and connection. Your child will work hard and learn respect, but the atmosphere is always lighthearted, safe, and filled with high-fives.
A Safe Place for Kids to Grow
Our priority is to create a space where your child feels safe to try new things. We focus on gentle, controlled training that allows for learning without fear or intimidation. The culture on our mats is built on kindness and teamwork, ensuring that every student is supported by coaches who care. We do not allow bullying or aggressive behavior; instead, we offer a supportive family atmosphere designed to help your child grow into a confident and respectful individual.
Perfect for Shy Kids and Wild Ones
We have seen firsthand how BJJ transforms children across the personality spectrum. For the shy child, the mats provide a structured way to build self-belief and make friends naturally. For the high-energy child, the training offers an outlet that teaches discipline and self-regulation. It helps anxious children feel capable and secure, while providing natural athletes with a challenging new edge. Ultimately, every student learns resilience—the ability to try hard and stay calm under pressure—which serves them well beyond the gym.
Finding the Right Fit For Your Child
Finding the Right Fit for Your Child We understand that every child develops at their own pace, and scheduling needs vary for every family. Because of this, you will notice an overlap between our 3–5 year old and 4–7 year old programs. This overlap allows us to ensure your child is placed in the environment that best supports their growth.
Whether your child is a mature 4-year-old ready for a faster pace or a 5-year-old who would benefit from more foundational attention, we work with you to find the perfect class time and peer group.
Please Note: Our age groups are not hard set. Class placement is based on each student’s stature, skill acquisition, and ability to follow along in class. Our coaches will personally evaluate each new student to ensure they are in the class where they will be most successful.
