"Kid-Jitsu"
Kid-Jitsu is the trademarked Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Program for children at the Jacksonville Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy. We teach Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Self-Defense techniques in a fun, interactive environment. The techniques are methodically demonstrated and practiced to enhance retention and effectiveness for each child. In addition to this, the "Kid-Jitsu Values Program" is woven throughout each class on a weekly basis.
In addition to the time and reality tested techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu that is shared with the children; they will also receive the benefits of increased self esteem, self control, self motivation, discipline, better mental focus and many more benefits from the "Kid-Jitsu Values Program".
Why “Kid-Jitsu®”?
Kid-Jitsu is not a striking art. Kid-Jitsu is a complete Self-Defense System that emphasises:
Position/Submission & Control. Kid-Jitsu uses Control vs. Striking, similar to the techniques used by Law Enforcement Agencies. A youngster can use Position/Submission & Control to defend him/herself, without using strikes, while staying out of trouble in our school systems.
------ Kid-Jitsu versus Karate---
Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu is a “hands on” art. We practice our self-defense techniques full speed, live and not with “forms or katas.” In Kid-Jitsu a child will not need to decode a form/kata to figure out what to do in a dangerous situation. Children like action and they like understanding what they are doing………In Kid-Jitsu, they get both and they thrive on it.
KidJitsu is a complete Self-Defense System. A parent cannot be with their children at all times, but they can educate their child on defending themselves. From standing grabs, strikes and abductions to Ground Grappling, Ground Strikes and Submissions, your child will be equipped to defend himself/herself with the knowledge of Kid-Jitsu.
We have classes 3 times per week:
Kid-Jitsu: Tuesday and Thursday at 6pm, and Saturday at 10:00am) back to top
