Jiu-Jitsu Ages 7 - 13 | AKA: "Junior Samurais"
|
The Junior Samurai classes keep things fun and challenging with games and lessons to help develop your growing child and young teenager. Our Life Skills Lessons compliment the need for realistic Self-Defense and Bully Defense lessons at this age group. To meet their desire to be challenged, we use movement drills and a lot of sparring at this age group. Kids will also learn the sportive aspects of Jiu-Jitsu and will have opportunities to compete if they choose.
