A grappling-centric art, the goal of BJJ is to take your opponent to the ground, control them positionally, and finish with a submission. With an emphasis on technique and leverage, BJJ is designed to allow a smaller person defeat a stronger foe with ease.
BJJ is often described as a game of “physical chess” due to it’s depth and technical nature. It’s an excellent sport to train your child’s physical skills as well as their mental attributes and problem solving abilities.
A typical class starts with some tumbling, rolling, break-falling (learning how to safely fall in a variety situations), activities and drills specific to BJJ that serve as a warm-up and skill reinforcement.
With everyone properly warmed up, the instructor will typically teach a technique — be it a position, submission, sweep, takedown or escape. As with everything else in our kid’s program, we ensure that the technique is both safe and age-appropriate. Under the close guidance of the instructor, students will then practice the technique with training partners.
After some further technical study and drills, we generally move on to some fun games that are either related to BJJ or otherwise teach valuable concepts or develop desirable skills.
