NEW!!! CardioMMA & KickBox Fitness
8/30/2010
We will be offering a new class two days a week come Sept. 10th. The new class will be called Cardio MMA & KickBox Fitness! This will be a co-ed class and will be a combination of classic kickbox fitness (cardio/aerobic) mixed with some modified BJJ/MMA drills. Students will wear MMA style gloves, hit real bags, to the rhythm of some upbeat music. Guaranteed to be one heck of a workout with 10 rounds and a timer bell. If interested, contact us for more information at contact@columbiabjj.com or call 443-864-8505.

Parent and Kid Brazilian Jiu-jitsu



Request Class Info

Kids and Parent BJJ Class
 
This is a very unique class where the parent(s) can take the class with their child (ages 3-8). Kids do not have the attention span that we as adults do, how do we teach them BJJ at such a young age? The secret is that we disquise the BJJ with fun games that the kids (and parents) enjoy and at the same time these games are teaching your child the basics of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. 
 
This class is held on Sunday's from 3:15pm till 4:15pm. E-mail us at contact@columbiabjj.com for more info. or to schedule a free trial class.  No exp. is necessary. If you would like to see a video first to get an idea what the class is like, then please go to the home page of our website and click on the tab, "Public Media Gallery". There you will find a album for our kid/parent class with videos of the class.
 
Here is a list of some of the benefits that you and your child will gain from taking this class...
  • Learn games and drills that teach your child the basics of self-defense.
  • Improve your child's balance, coordination, motor skills, attention span.
  • Our belt reward system will teach your child the invaluable life lesson of work and reward. This is a skill that they will use throughout their life-time.
  • Your child will gain confidence and improve his or her self-esteem at the same time.
  • Your child will become "bully proof". Unlike many other martial arts that teach children how to punch and kick, your child will learn to control a larger bully through leverage, and body control. This way you don't have to worry about your child actually hurting another kid at school if they are picked on, but you will be confident that they can defend themselves if picked on by another child.
  • We do not teach kids of this age submissions (joint locks and choke holds) even though they are a very important part of Jiu-jitsu in our adult programs. Kids at this age need to know how to control a larger attacker; not how to hurt them. Your child will learn how to take a bully to the ground and how to control them once on the ground until help arrives (a teacher) or the bully may simply gives up.
