CHILDREN'S PROGRAMME
Pro Jiu Jitsu offers a safe, inclusive environment for children to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu through games and drills, fostering skill development and confidence while making new friends. Classes embrace diversity, mixing ages, genders, and backgrounds. Safety is paramount; children are paired appropriately based on age and ability. Our experienced coaches ensure a fun yet disciplined atmosphere, and parental trust is valued to maintain safety and allow optimal learning.
We recognize parents' desire for their children's success, yet sometimes this can inadvertently create pressure. While children may view Jiu-Jitsu as solely fun, it also instills confidence, discipline, and respect. Our approach prioritizes enjoyment over winning, encouraging children to do their best without undue pressure. By emphasizing fun over winning, parents can ensure their child's sustained interest and well-being in Jiu-Jitsu.
