Your Questions Answered
Here are some of the most common questions parents ask before their child’s first class.
Does my child need previous martial arts experience?
No. Our classes are suitable for complete beginners. Coaches will introduce your child to the basics and help them progress at a comfortable pace.
What should my child wear for their first class?
Comfortable sports clothing without zips, buttons or metal fastenings is ideal. A T-shirt and shorts or leggings are suitable for the free trial.
Is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu safe for children?
Classes are carefully structured and supervised. Children are taught how to train safely, work with partners and practise techniques in a controlled way.
Can parents watch the class?
Parents are welcome to stay for the first session. Depending on the child, allowing them to train independently afterward can sometimes help their concentration and confidence.
Does my child have to compete?
No. Competition is completely optional. Children can enjoy Jiu-Jitsu, develop their skills and progress through the programme without competing.
