Youth PRogram

At Heirloom BJJ we understand parents want what is best for their children, that is why our kids program is designed to develop confident, capable martial artists while placing even greater emphasis on the kind of people they become.

Through our LIFE SKILLS program, students learn and practice Courage, Pride, Respect, and Teamwork and more—qualities that matter far beyond the mat. We believe character development is more important than technical ability, because our goal is to build better people, not just better martial artists. That’s why students must first demonstrate growth in their LIFE SKILLS before they can progress through their MAT SKILLS. A LIFE SKILLS stripe must be earned before a student can receive MAT SKILLS stripes or advance in belt rank. In our program, learning how to be a better teammate, show respect, take pride in your work, and have the courage to face challenges is just as important as learning a technique.

LIFE SKILLS come first—and everything else is built from there.
