Kids Programs

Self Defense Squad

Affectionately known as the Sloth Defense Squad, our children's program teaches kids how to defend themselves against physical bullying. Focusing on the grappling techniques of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Sloth teaches students to use body positioning to control an attacker, rather than relying on punches and kicks. Inspired by the steady and deliberate nature of the sloth, this program is designed to equip kids with the self-defense skills they need while instilling core principles of discipline, respect and patience.

Youth Sports Academy

Our Youth Sports Academy offers sport-specific training for elite athletes between the ages of 12 and 18. The program is designed specifically for young athletes looking to give themselves a competitive advantage by improving their speed, power, agility, strength and stability. Each program focuses on the primary sport of the athletes while being scaled to their age, developmental stage and ability. We train in six-week blocks, two times per week, with functional movement screens and assessments at the end of each program. Train with your friends or teammates, or we can develop a group just for you.
