Union Martial Arts Kids Jiu-Jitsu program teaches the most practical self-defense skills for real-life encounters with bullies. Kids learn how to defend themselves in any situation, but they also vastly improve discipline, confidence, focus, physical fitness and sportsmanship. Kids who are strong and confident are far less likely to become the target of bullies in the first place.
We understand what it’s like for kids to be new or perhaps even a little bit nervous to try a Jiu-Jitsu class. That’s why we’ve created a very unique program that will help your child comprehend and achieve their goals one step at a time. Please have a look at our numerous 5 star Google reviews to get a sense of what our kids martial arts program is like here at Union Martial Arts!
We have developed our own unique and structured kids Jiu-Jitsu curriculum that progresses systematically at an age-appropriate level. It starts with fundamental techniques and concepts and gradually introduces more advanced techniques as students develop their skills. The curriculum covers various aspects of Jiu-Jitsu and Wrestling including takedowns, positions, submissions, escapes, reversals and transitions. In addition, we are big believers in the constraints-led approach to coaching kids Jiu-Jitsu, which, when coupled with positive-reinforcement, can really enhance and speed up the learning process for kids.
We constantly strive to create a friendly, supportive, professional and inclusive environment. Students of all levels and backgrounds are welcomed, and mutual respect among training partners is expected, creating an atmosphere conducive to learning, growth, friendship and most importantly, FUN!
