About the provider

The program has been serving the Bay Area since 2014. Its youth program is described as helping kids develop self-defense skills, physical fitness, and mental resilience in a fun and structured environment.

The program is designed to be safe, structured, and age-appropriate, with an emphasis on technique and controlled movement. The FAQ says Jiu Jitsu will not make a child aggressive; it teaches respect, control, and discipline. Recommended training frequency is 2-3 times per week for consistent progress.
