Discipline, self-confidence, respect, integrity, teamwork and
responsibility are some of the core principles for personal
success. These values, however, are rarely taught to children in
schools. At Gracie Barra Cerritos, the practice of Brazilian
Jiu-Jitsu is seen as a means to individual growth, and our Kids and
Juniors Program emphasizes development of charcter. The kids and
Juniors Jiu-Jitsu program is designed to:
Teach a complete self-defense system that will give children a high
degree of self-confidence. Teach children how to intelligently cope
with bullying and peer pressure. Teach positive social values such
as respect, honesty, humility, and dignity. Help children get along
with others and to treat others with respect. We offer fun and
instructional classes for kids. The kid’s program integrates sport
and self-defense techniques with conditioning and skill oriented
games aimed at improving your child’s coordination, motor skills,
agility and flexibility.
