  • Safety is our top priority. Our certified instructors supervise every class to maintain a safe environment. We teach children proper techniques and etiquette to prevent injuries while promoting a supportive learning atmosphere.

  • No Gi Jiu-Jitsu is increasingly popular among kids because it offers a dynamic way to learn grappling techniques without the traditional gi. Movements are faster and more fluid, simulating real-life scenarios where opponents do not wear a gi. This training enhances reflexes, adaptability, and confidence, making it effective for self-defense and personal growth.

  • For Gi classes, your child needs a white Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gi (jacket, pants, and belt), provided free upon membership. In No Gi classes, they should wear a Sojiujitsu rash guard, NoGi shorts or leggings, and their belt for promotion tracking.

  • Yes, we offer opportunities for children to compete in local and regional competitions based on their skill level. Participation is optional but encourages skill development, confidence building, and teamwork under instructor guidance.
