How Are Kids Jiu Jitsu Classes Structured?
Posted: November 15, 2023
One of our most frequently asked questions is how are kids jiu jitsu classes structured? If your child has expressed an interest in starting martial arts classes, but you would like to know more about the structure of the classes - this is the blog for you! It is no secret that jiu jitsu can offer a variety of benefits for children both in and out of the dojo, but we understand that, as parents you may want to know about the set up, to know if your child will engage and love it as much as we hope!
If you are wondering about how our classes are structured, here, in this blog post we aim to go through each of our children’s classes and explore how they are structured and how they may be the best fit for your child.
How Are Kids Jiu Jitsu Classes Structured At Ellis Academy Of Self Defence?
We have a variety of children’s classes at Ellis Academy of Self Defence which are all structured differently in order to cater for different age ranges.
Tiny Tigers
Our Tiny Tigers class is for children aged 3-6 years old. This class for little ninjas is the blueprint for healthy child development.
The structure of this class is focused on having fun and socialising with other children, all whilst learning essential skills that will benefit their development. Our Tiny Tigers class teaches key life skills such as the importance of having positive mental attitude, setting goals and learning respect and self confidence. We focus not just on self defence moves, but also on the personal development aspect of martial arts.
Children are of course at the crux of all our children’s programs, however, we also want to offer a helping g hand to parents. Our classes are structured so that parents can gain support. We teach children how to keep focused and disciplined and allow them to have fun in a secure setting, meaning they will likely present these behaviours at home and in school too!
There are three simple steps to joining Tiny Tigers: redeem your offer, schedule your child’s first semi-private lesson and begin your child’s martial arts journey with them!
Kids Martial Arts
Our kids martial arts classes follow a specialised program created for children aged 6-9. The structure of the kids’ martial arts curriculum is centred around ongoing review and development of skills including:
- Positive mental attitude
- High goal-setting
- Perseverance
- Self-control
- Confidence
If you are wanting to raise a strong, confident leader, the way our martial arts class for kids is structured, instils confidence, focus and of course self defence skills into children, again, being your partner in parenting.
Of course, you are eager for your child to have the right tools to succeed and we understand that internet predators and bullies at school can cause anxiety and stress for both children and parents alike. The structure of our classes is centred around teaching children valuable skills to combat these challenges in real life situations.
As before, you just need to follow three simple steps: redeem your trial offer, schedule your lesson and begin your journey!
Children who attend self defence classes at Ellis Academy of Self Defence walk out of the dojo, feeling empowered having learned goal setting skills, improved their self confidence and developed a strong sense of respect for themselves, their peers and their leaders.
