The Kids Gracie Jiu Jitsu Program at Gracie Miranda, a local Mixed Martial Arts club in Miranda, is all about nurturing champion kids who excel both athletically and academically. With a focus on integrating physical education with specialised self-defence techniques, this program offers a dynamic and engaging environment for children to develop their skills on and off the mat.
In these classes, children aged 5-14 are taught self-defence techniques through a combination of enjoyable games and skill-oriented exercises. This approach not only builds coordination, balance, and strength, but also teaches kids when, how, why, and in what context to apply these skills. It's important for children to understand control, which is why they are given the opportunity to partner with smaller children and learn how to deal with larger opponents.
One of the great benefits of Gracie Jiu Jitsu is that it helps children gain the confidence to stand up for themselves without resorting to violence. Bullying is a concern for many parents, and this program equips children with non-violent methods to address these situations. As children progress, they are introduced to more complex techniques that build upon the fundamental skills they have already acquired.
But it's not just about physical development. The program also emphasises the importance of manners and social skills, encouraging children to be empathetic and supportive team players. Plus, with a solid workout incorporated into each class, children learn the value of staying active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, even during times of great stress such as exams.
For the younger ones, the Tots Jiu Jitsu Classes cater to children aged 3.5-5 years old. These classes provide a fun learning environment where children focus on motor skills and have opportunities to interact socially.
