At Legion MMA, our Kids Martial Arts program offers two distinct classes: Kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, each designed to help your child grow physically, mentally, and emotionally through the time-tested disciplines of martial arts.

Kids Jiu-Jitsu Class

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a grappling-based martial art that teaches kids how to control an opponent using leverage, technique, and position—rather than size or strength. In a safe, supportive setting, kids learn takedowns, escapes, sweeps, and submissions through structured drills and live training (sparring is optional and always age-appropriate).

Benefits of Jiu-Jitsu:

• Teaches real-world self-defense without relying on striking

• Develops patience, problem-solving, and resilience

• Builds confidence through accomplishment and discipline

• Encourages humility, teamwork, and respect for others

BJJ is often described as "physical chess"—and it gives kids the tools to stay calm under pressure, think critically, and handle conflict with control and confidence.

Kids Kickboxing Class

Our Kickboxing class combines elements of Muay Thai and traditional striking to teach kids proper punches, kicks, footwork, and defense in a high-energy, fun, and structured environment. This class focuses on technique, fitness, and controlled pad and bag work (no full-contact sparring unless authorized and supervised for older, advanced students).

Benefits of Kickboxing:

• Increases cardio, strength, coordination, and athleticism

• Builds confidence in standing self-defense situations

• Provides a healthy outlet for energy and emotion

• Reinforces focus, discipline, and respect for boundaries

Kickboxing empowers kids with the ability to protect themselves while also promoting physical health, mental sharpness, and strong work ethic.
