KIDS JIU JITSU | AGES 5–12

STRONG SKILLS.

GETTING STARTED

YOUR CHILD’S FIRST STEP IS PERSONAL.

Before your child joins class, your family will meet privately with Professor Guto.

You will see the academy, discuss your child’s personality and needs, and learn how the Kids Program works. The introduction gives your child a comfortable first experience and helps Professor Guto understand how to welcome them into class.

SCHEDULE YOUR FAMILY INTRODUCTION

  • $0 cost introduction and no commitment required

  • 45 min private appointment with you and your children

  • Discuss memberships and family training discounts

  • Get your child fitted for their BTT Gi and Rash Guard to purchase uniform for class

MORE THAN JIU JITSU

CONFIDENCE

Children build confidence by learning real skills, meeting challenges, and recognizing their progress.

FULL CLASS SCHEDULE

INSIDE THE ACADEMY

WHAT DO CLASSES LOOK LIKE?

Children learn through technical instruction, movement, partnered practice, and controlled Jiu Jitsu training.

Professor Guto adapts each lesson to the age group while maintaining clear standards for technique, safety, respect, and effort.

Competition is available for children who are interested and ready. It is never required.

ON THE MATS AND BEYOND

A NEW CONCEPT EVERY MONTH

Each month introduces a concept such as confidence, discipline, respect, teamwork, accountability, or resilience.

Children practice these ideas through real actions: listening, protecting a partner, remaining composed, and continuing when something feels difficult.

  • Coordination, balance, body awareness, and practical Jiu Jitsu skills.

  • Focus, confidence, problem-solving, and perseverance.

  • Respect, teamwork, communication, and responsibility.

STRONG LEADERSHIP

EVERY CHILD IS SEEN.
EVERY CHILD IS EXPECTED TO GROW.

Professor Guto teaches each child as an individual while holding the entire class to clear standards of safety, respect, and effort.

He knows when a child needs patience, encouragement, redirection, or a stronger challenge.

THE NEXT STEP IS YOURS

ARE YOU READY TO GIVE YOUR CHILD A STRONG PLACE TO GROW?

Jiu Jitsu gives children more than techniques. It develops confidence earned through practice, discipline built through consistency, resilience when things feel difficult, and a team that wants to see them succeed.

You do not need to know where their journey will lead. You just need to help them begin.
