Kids & Juniors

At Five Rings Jiu Jitsu, we believe martial arts is more than just learning techniques—it’s about building confidence, discipline, and resilience from a young age. Our Kids (4+) and Juniors (8+) programs are designed to provide a fun, structured, and supportive environment where children can develop essential life skills while learning the art of Jiu Jitsu.

We emphasize teamwork, respect, and perseverance, ensuring that every class helps build strong character both on and off the mats. Whether your child is looking to boost their confidence, stay active, or gain valuable self-defence skills, Five Rings Jiu Jitsu is the perfect place to start their journey.

Building the Operating System

Our Kids program introduces young martial artists to the foundations of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu through play, discipline, and movement. We focus on developing body awareness, coordination, and confidence in a safe, structured environment.

Using fun games and drills, kids learn how to control their body, follow instructions, and respect both partners and coaches. This age is about planting seeds—teaching your child to be aware of their body, surroundings, and how to navigate physical challenges with calm and control.

What your child will learn:

  • Basic jiu jitsu movements and positions

  • Balance, coordination, and posture

  • Respect, teamwork, and listening skills

  • Confidence through safe challenges

This class sets the groundwork for future learning, both on and off the mat. No experience is needed—just a great attitude and a willingness to learn!

Juniors 8yrs+

Confidence, Control, and Character

Our Juniors program is where young students begin to understand the deeper purpose of Jiu-Jitsu. More than just a sport, it's a tool for emotional regulation, problem-solving, and developing leadership skills.

This program is built to prepare students to handle real-life challenges—bullying, confrontation, and self-doubt—with skill and integrity. Whether they dream of becoming champions or simply gaining confidence, our structured approach guides each child to grow mentally, emotionally, and physically.

What juniors will develop:

  • Self-defense and bully-proofing skills

  • Emotional control in tough situations

  • Strong work ethic and discipline

  • Positional control, escapes, and submissions

  • A foundation for high-level sport jiu jitsu

We’ve helped shape multiple State, National, and Oceania champions—while ensuring every student walks away with greater self-belief and strength of character.

High-level problem-solving under stress.
