Fitness

With such a fast pace, you’ll be burning tons of calories while practicing Jiu Jitsu. While BJJ is likely to help you shed a few pounds, it’s going to make you a stronger athlete in every respect. Jiu Jitsu is known for increasing flexibility, building muscle mass, quickening reflexes, and improving coordination. If you’re a multi-sport athlete, Jiu Jitsu is about to become your best friend.

Self-Defense

Made for the real world, BJJ is a form of self defense that every person should master. BJJ focuses on ground level altercations – utilizing holds, throws, and a variety of submission techniques. This makes Jiu Jitsu ideal when learning how to take on an opponent who may be larger than you, without necessarily having to hurt them.

Self-Assurance

Our Kids Jiu Jitsu program focuses on teaching effective techniques and strategies to help kids stay safe and confident in challenging situations. Through engaging and age-appropriate training sessions, our experienced instructors guide children in learning practical self-defense moves that utilize leverage and technique, rather than relying on strength alone. By instilling in them the ability to defend themselves, we aim to promote a sense of security and self-assurance among our young students.

Safety

As a parent, your first priority is keeping your child safe. That’s why we are so passionate about equipping kids with the invaluable self-defense skills that BJJ provides. While all forms of Jiu Jitsu prepare students for real-life altercations and provide essential lessons on how to protect oneself, Jiu Jitsu takes self-defense to another level.

Community

At Decatur Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, we prioritize building a strong sense of community among our young Jiu Jitsu enthusiasts. Our Kids Jiu Jitsu program provides children with the opportunity to connect with like-minded peers, fostering lasting friendships and a supportive network. Through partner drills, team exercises, and friendly competitions, kids learn the importance of cooperation, sportsmanship, and camaraderie. We organize regular events and activities that encourage children to bond with their fellow students, creating a sense of belonging and shared accomplishment within the BJJ kids community.
