BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is about efficiency. It’s about learning how to use your body in the best possible way – to take down any opponent of any size.
You’ll develop control over your entire body, so you can use your whole body weight to take down opponents. That’s how Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters go into matches against guys twice, even three times their size… and come out victorious. In the battle of technique vs. brute force… technique always wins. This is why we do believe that is the best martial art for any child!

The years between 12 and 16 are very important for children. Any idea why? With high school around the corner, there are many challenges on the way. Here are some to name a few:
Physical: physical illness, acne, physical check-ups, weight worries, eating disorders, infections, height worries
Emotional: relationships, family problems, depression, violence issues
Social: bullying, tobacco and smoking, drugs, saying “no,”peer pressure, friend
Intellectual: nerd vs. popular dilemma, grades, college
It is very important that your child’s transition at this time is smooth because the choices they make during the high school years will have a lot of influence on what kind of adult they turn out to be. With right development, positive reinforcement, and good mentors, your child will be ready to be able to handle the difficult challenges of life ahead.
