Program Pillar Values

There are so many activities your child could try—so what makes martial arts, especially jiu-jitsu, different? Sure kids get better at their grappling skills, they learn how to safely throw, control and submit their opponent. Which, of course, is tremendous for self-defense. But jiu-jitsu goes far beyond the physical benefits.

We help families achieve behavior changes that will stay with kids into adulthood and forge them into exceptional humans. This is why our program has four pillars.

“Kids learn how to stay calm and focused even when under pressure—skills they can use during tests, arguments, or real-world situations.”

Warrior Spirit

Kids build strong grappling skills for self-defense.

Personal Growth

Jiu-jitsu promotes discipline, respect, and focus.

Physical Fitness

Our program creates lasting behavior change beyond the mat.

Life Skills

Jiu-jitsu promotes discipline, respect, and focus.
