What Sets Gracie Bullyproof Kids Jiu-Jitsu Summer Camp Apart?

At Tri-Cities Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, we believe in more than just teaching martial arts techniques. Our Gracie Bullyproof Kids Jiu-Jitsu Summer Camp is designed to instill essential life skills that children can use in their daily lives. Here's what sets us apart:

  1. Our approach: While learning the art of Jiu-Jitsu is central to our camp, we also focus on character development. Through engaging activities and discussions, we teach the concepts of respect, manners, health, responsibility, citizenship, and caring. 

  2. Our experienced instruction: Our certified instructors are skilled in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and experienced in working with children. They create a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where every child feels valued and empowered to succeed.

  3. Our dedication to creating a safe space: Safety is our top priority. We ensure that all activities and techniques are age-appropriate and conducted in a controlled environment to promote a positive learning experience.

  4. Our focus on fun and fitness: While Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art, it's also a fantastic way to be active! Children improve their flexibility, agility, and coordination through drills, games, and exercises while having a blast with their peers. Our camp balances learning and fun perfectly, ensuring children look forward to every session.

  2. Mental Health: As children master new skills and overcome challenges, their confidence and focus soars. They learn to believe in themselves and their abilities on and off the mat. 

  3. Verbal Self-Defence Training: We conduct a series of specific role-playing scenarios and exercises during each day of the camp to ensure your child is ready to identify and overcome verbal harassment.

  4. Character Development: Beyond the physical benefits, Jiu-Jitsu teaches essential life lessons, setting them up for success in all areas of life.

  5. Confidence Booster: There's nothing quite like the feeling of mastering a new skill. As children progress in Jiu-Jitsu, they develop a sense of pride and self-assurance that carries over into other aspects of their lives.
