At Grand Union, our Kids Programme is about much more than learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

We use Jiu Jitsu as a tool to help children develop confidence, discipline, respect, resilience and a positive mindset, qualities that can support them at school, at home and throughout life.

Children learn how to listen, work with others, overcome challenges and become comfortable dealing with both success and setbacks. At the same time, they develop practical Jiu Jitsu skills, coordination, fitness and the confidence to protect themselves if necessary.

Our goal is not simply to create good Jiu Jitsu students. We want to help develop confident, respectful and resilient young people.
