Kids Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) isn’t just for adults. In fact, it’s the perfect activity for kids!
When it comes to self defense, BJJ empowers a smaller individual to fight against a larger opponent. But the advantages don’t stop there – BJJ helps kids gain confidence, learn discipline, focus their energy, foster respect for others, and be a part of a one-of-a-kind community full of future friends and mentors! Which is why we offer children’s programs for different age ranges and skill levels. At Bonsai Jiu-Jitsu Academy – NC we offer several Kids Jiu-Jitsu Programs:
- Mini Mights (Ages 3-5)
- Mighty Might (Ages 6-8)
- Pre-Teen BJJ (Ages 9-13)

Kids BJJ Overview
Welcome to the Bonsai Jiu-Jitsu Academy’s Kids BJJ Program in North Carolina! Our program is designed to introduce children to the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) in a safe, fun, and educational environment. We believe that BJJ not only helps kids develop essential physical skills but also fosters important life skills such as discipline, confidence, and respect. Our program is divided into age-appropriate classes to ensure that every child receives the best learning experience possible.
Mini Mights – Gi (Ages 3-5)
For our youngest practitioners, ages 3 to 5, we offer the Mini Mights Gi class. In this playful and engaging environment, children will begin their BJJ journey by learning the fundamental movements and techniques of BJJ. Through imaginative games and drills, Mini Mights will develop balance, coordination, and basic self-defense skills. Our experienced instructors create a nurturing atmosphere where kids can grow both physically and mentally while having a great time on the mats.
Mighty Might – Gi (Ages 6-8)
The Mighty Might Gi class is tailored for children ages 6 to 8, providing them with a more structured and challenging introduction to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. In this class, students will delve deeper into BJJ techniques, including basic submissions, escapes, and positional control. They will also learn the importance of teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship. Our skilled instructors focus on building a strong foundation while making sure every child feels encouraged and motivated to progress.
Pre-Teen BJJ – Gi (Ages 9-13)
Our Pre-Teen BJJ Gi program is designed for older kids, ages 9 to 13, who are ready to take their BJJ journey to the next level. In this class, students will continue to refine their techniques, explore more advanced positions, and develop a deeper understanding of BJJ principles. Beyond the physical aspect, this program emphasizes character development, teaching respect, responsibility, and resilience. Pre-Teen BJJ helps young individuals build self-confidence, self-control, and leadership skills that will serve them well both on and off the mats.
