Kids BJJ: Little Ninjas (ages 3-6)

Many parents ask, “Is my 3-year-old too young to start WacoJiu-Jitsu?”

The answer is simple: Absolutely not. In fact, starting children’s BJJ training between ages 3 to 6 lays a powerful foundation for the rest of their life. At this age, children are highly impressionable. What is more, they are learning how to behave socially, how to control their emotions, and how to interact with the world around them. Martial Arts of Waco kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gives them a safe environment to grow.

Little Ninjas classes at Martial Arts of Waco are separated from older kids to ensure personalized attention, manageable group sizes, and a safe learning environment for small children.

Kids BJJ (ages 6-13)

As children grow, so does their ability to grasp more advanced Jiu-Jitsu techniques and life lessons. Our Waco kids Jiu-Jitsu program for ages 6 to 13 continues the journey started in Little Ninjas but with greater structure, more detailed technique, and higher expectations.

Because we mix different ages within reason, younger students often develop faster by learning from slightly older, more experienced training partners. At Martial Arts of Waco, we carefully organize the children’s BJJ class structure to make sure every child grows at their own pace and feels supported along the way.

Anti-Bullying

Of all the benefits of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for kids, one of the greatest ones is learning to negate bullying. Whether that is to stand up for yourself or others, we teach kids BJJ students the necessary skills to end all situations with as little conflict as possible.
