Kids BJJ/MMA: Build Confidence, Discipline & Skills
Our kids program at Creighton Mixed Martial Arts Academy is tailored specifically for the next generation with the classes focusing on blending stand up and ground techniques together. Your kids will learn punches from the art of boxing, kicks from muay thai, takedowns from wrestling and judo, and ground positioning/submissions from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
We believe that in order for a self defense system to be a “complete” system it must include each one of these ranges. This allows your kids to learn functional and realistic techniques in a fun, safe and controlled setting. A strong foundation is laid out for our kids to progress in their skills so that they will be ready for the next level of instruction when they reach the appropriate age.
What are the benefits?
- We provide a safe and fun learning environment with dedicated instructors
- Friendships are formed amongst the students for essential social development
- Self defense and self control is the cornerstone of our program
