2. It is a natural martial art, based in leverage and balance.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu uses the principles of action - reaction, leverage, and base. Children learn to use an opponents power as an advantage, rather than fighting against the force. We practice many different games that help children experience
these principles and learn to understand how to use them as techniques. Children develop a heightened sense of body awareness and coordination, which leads to self-confidence and inner discipline. Not only do children learn how to effectively defend themselves, but also strengthen their kinesthetic abilities to excel in any other sport of which they participate. It doesnt have to be a choice of one sport or the other.
3. It is interactive and fluid (not rigid and redundant).
The majority of class time involves working in partners and practicing the application of moves. This constant close contact allows practitioners to ingrain the natural phenomenon of body action and reaction to leverage and balance in an interactive way, rather than individual repetitious moves in theoretical scenarios. Children learn to read and anticipate an opponents movements, and respond accordingly. They actually experience the dynamic constantly and it becomes hard wired into their body memory.
There are many other benefits to starting your child in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. We encourage you to come and see for yourself the difference.
