5 Reasons why your child should enrol in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes:
Self-Defence
Whilst educational services and systems ensure that life is safe for your child; bullies still exists though they are rare. Sydney Jiu-Jitsu gives your child the knowledge they need to learn to protect themselves. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most effective self-defence martial arts. It is still widely adopted today in Mixed Martial Arts and generates strong influence in the professional fighting scene.
Resilience
Everyone wants the best life for their child. However, every kid will face difficulties during growth into adulthood. Sydney-Jiu Jitsu encourages the use of resilience and independence when children are met with a challenging task. We will teach your child to handle loss and give them the tools and guidance they need to deal with challenges they adjoin, yet also show them how to be an empathetic human during victory.
Fine and gross Motor Skills
The human body never stops learning, movement and flexibility patterns are endless. At SJJ your child will refine their gross motor skills as well as their fine motor skills. We teach simple and advanced body movement systems that ensure advantages in development of coordination. We will also ensure your child learns how to fall safely and protect vulnerable body parts from damage.
Problem Solving
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is an endless stream of body tangles and attempts from your opponent to submit and finish the fight. Children in Jiu-Jitsu learn systems from dozens of different positions and counters for attacks or takedowns. They will have to put into practice what they learn and come up with solutions when they find themselves in a challenging position. Forcing their mind to think and problem solve with the tools (and supervision) of the Professor running the class.
It is fun!
The most important part of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and why it is such a beloved sport in many communities is because it is fun. The Academy is not just there for training. It is a place where people can come together after a busy day at work or school and talk. Your child will make many friends and engage with families from different cultural backgrounds.
Rolling around on the mats and wrestling with your mates is a lot of fun! And you get taught how to choke people safely! (with supervision of course!)
Our coaches also ensure that the kids are having a great time on and off the mats. We create appropriate curriculums for all ages so that we may cater to your child’s needs.
