      Kids / Teens Courses

      “Give your children the gift of confidence, leadership, respect, focus, behaviour and discipline with our classes. All while teaching them the skill of self-defence and the gentle art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.”
      ~ Katie De Souza ~

      Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is amazing for teens to help them grow in confidence, improve their concentration, focus and behaviour.  They become much fitter, stronger and learn to build up stamina. They have lots of fun, learn social skills and make new friends.

      All children and teenagers start with a course.

      Some children aged 10 and 11 may need to enrol on the Teens Course due to their size. Please speak to us if unsure. 

      Teens Course is for children aged up to and including 14 years. Older teens will need to attend the adult classes and will therefore enrol using the adult courses.

      Kids BJJ Taster Class is available for £10.  If your child likes the class and you would like to enrol them, you will receive your £10 fee back providing you sign up on the day at the dojo.

      Testimonials

      Alex De Souza has changed my life, he has given me a focus again. I am one of the most motivated people i know but we all lose focus sometimes. Alex is one of the foremost guys in bringing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to these shores. Since training I have lost 17kg in only 5 months. Give it a go folks, you'll love it. Oss!

      "The most fantastic way to teach children of all shapes and sizes respect, fitness and fun. I would recommend anyone thinking of taking up Jiu Jitsu to look no further."

      -- Jacquie Streener

      "First class training and setup, great lessons and Professor Alex is an awesome instructor! I was only there for a week while visiting and having trained in a couple of other places previously, I can say that this is world class. Also spoken of very highly by friends of mine!"

      --Dave Graham

      "I had the opportunity to join Alex just as he moved into his new gym which is a world class facility in an excellent location. I have had the opportunity to train at several gyms over the years due to moving around for uni but Alex's is by far the best facility. Alex is clearly very passionate about the art and is a very clear teacher with every class suitable for any level. Most importantly the environment Alex has created is a very friendly one with everyone being very respectful and NO big egos. If you haven't trained before this is definitely the best gym to take your first steps into the world of BJJ."

      --Oliver France
