LITTLE KIDS
A focused half hour of movement games, grappling basics, and listening skills. Short enough to hold attention, structured enough to build real coordination and confidence.

KIDS ATHLETE TRACK
For kids who want more. Athlete Track adds Kids Strength and Kids Skill Work on top of the regular classes — real strength training with a coach on every rep, and the deepest coaching we give any kid in the gym.
AGE GROUPS ARE
A STARTING POINT,
NOT A WALL.
Start with the age bracket — it's right for most kids. From there, placement flexes with coach approval: a capable 7-year-old can move up to the 8–12 class, a kid who is ready for more can earn a spot on the Kids Athlete Track, and a 13-year-old can stay in kids if we think that's the safer fit. Size, maturity, and experience all factor in.
Siblings in both kids classes train at the same time on Tuesdays and Thursdays — one drop-off, one pick-up. Not sure where your kid fits? Ask us — we'll tell you straight.
SAME METHOD,
EVERY AGE.
Every program is built on the Constraints-Led Approach — live problem-solving against a resisting partner, scaled to the person doing it. A 5-year-old plays a balance game; a black belt solves a leg entanglement. Same idea, different dose.
MORE THAN MAT TIME.
STRENGTH + MOBILITY
A two-day strength program built on the research done on BJJ athletes, a mobility program, and a video for every movement.
