Kids Jiu Jitsu Program

At Playground Jiu Jitsu, our Kids Jiu Jitsu Program is divided into three age groups — PeeWee (ages 4–8), Juniors (ages 9–13), and Teens (ages 14–17). This structure ensures that every child trains in an environment suited to their age, coordination, and learning ability.

Each group is designed to help students build confidence, discipline, and focus while learning the art of Jiu Jitsu in a fun and encouraging way. Through games, drills, and live practice, kids develop not only physical skills but also the mindset to face challenges on and off the mats.

Ages 4 - 8

PeeWee Class

Our PeeWee Class introduces young children to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu through fun, engaging, and age-appropriate activities. The focus is on developing coordination, balance, and body awareness, while also teaching important life skills such as focus, respect, and teamwork.

Each class is broken down into three parts — a warm-up with exercises and movement drills to build strength and agility, a lesson where students learn new techniques and concepts, and live rolling, where they safely practice what they’ve learned with their teammates.

Every class helps build confidence, discipline, and a strong foundation that prepares them for the next stages of their Jiu Jitsu journey.

Junior Class

Our Juniors Class is designed for kids of all experience levels — from complete beginners to those continuing their Jiu Jitsu journey. In this class, students develop a deeper understanding of techniques, movement, and strategy while building confidence, focus, and discipline on the mats.

Each class is divided into three parts — a warm-up focused on drilling Jiu Jitsu movements to improve coordination and muscle memory, a technical lesson introducing new positions and submissions, and live rolling, where students practice applying techniques against a resisting partner in a safe and structured way.

The Juniors Class challenges students both physically and mentally, helping them grow stronger, more focused, and better prepared for the next stage of their Jiu Jitsu journey.

Teens Class

Our Teens Class is the perfect place for teenagers to begin or continue their Jiu Jitsu journey. Whether you’re stepping on the mats for the first time or already have experience, this class provides a supportive and encouraging environment where students can challenge themselves, build confidence, and grow through training.

The focus is on developing strong fundamentals, improving fitness and discipline, and learning to stay calm and focused under pressure — skills that translate both on and off the mats. The pace and structure are similar to our adult program, helping students gain real technical skill while preparing them for a smooth transition into adult-level training.
