⭐ KIDS BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU PROGRAMS

○ Toddlers / Kids / Teens

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a marathon martial art, not a sprint. It can be trained well into old age, as co-founder Helio Gracie practiced regularly as a 94 year old. Equally, it’s an art that greatly benefits kids. As it prioritizes timing and technique over size and power, there’s no better martial art for children to train.

Jiu-Jitsu teaches children valuable self-defence skills, and is great for both health and confidence. BJJ is an effective anti-bullying system. Not only are little champions able to defend themselves, they learn to do so in the safest way possible. They’ll create new social circles outside of school while doing so. Friendships made on the mats tend to last a very long time!

Gracie Botany is a martial arts academy for all ages. We offer martial arts classes for kids of varying age brackets, broadly separated into three classes: Toddlers, Kids, and Teens.

⭐ TODDLERS BJJ CLASSES

Gracie Humaita Botany offers BJJ classes for children aged between 3 and 5 years old. These 30-minute classes are specifically designed for pre-schoolers.

At our academy, children aged 3 to 5 years old do not engage in sparring during class. Instead, the focus is on developing coordination, discipline, and confidence. We offer a variety of fun activities and games that introduce basic BJJ techniques and movements.

Children at this young age are still developing their motor skills and coordination, and their attention span is usually limited. Therefore, our BJJ classes are tailored to their age and developmental level. The classes may involve simple BJJ drills and exercises that teach basic BJJ techniques. Kids learn to break-fall, forward roll, escape from holds and basic BJJ positions. The training may also include games and activities that promote physical fitness and coordination, such as obstacle courses and relay races.

Discipline and confidence are also important aspects of BJJ training for young children. Our classes include exercises that teach children how to follow instructions, show respect for others, and develop a positive attitude towards challenges.

WHY CHOOSE GRACIE BOTANY?

Gracie Botany traces its lineage straight to the source of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Craig, the school’s head coach, received his black belt from Bruno Panno in 2019. Bruno, who helped bring BJJ to NSW, received his black belt in 2001 from Royler Gracie. Royler Gracie is the son of Helio Gracie, one of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s co-creators.

Gracie Botany offers you authentic learnings, and provides you with a flexible schedule from which to learn. We offer over 20 classes per week, which spans day and night, Gi and No Gi, Beginner and Advanced. Finally, we’re family owned and operated — and will strive to make the Gracie Botany team feel more like the Gracie Botany family.
