How the program works
Using our time-tested “Gracie Games,” we teach the Little Champs basic self-defence techniques while instilling the foundational principles of leverage and control. The secret to the success of this program is that we make the lessons so fun that the kids beg for more! Once a child masters all ten Gracie Games, they advance to the Junior Grapplers program.
In the Junior Grapplers program, we focus on 33 non-violent self-defence techniques that teach children to “neutralise and negotiate” with the bullies. Verbal assertiveness strategies are a major portion of this curriculum. A child needs absolutely no experience to start, and we guarantee a noticeable increase in your child’s confidence within a few weeks!
