Gracie Barra Success Stories

My son and I have been members here for the past 3.5 years, and I can't say enough good things about the club. It is a fantastic place to train whether you just want to learn a new skill and get fit, or also want to compete. It is really obvious how committed the owner is to his students (and their development). This club has such a wonderful culture, that the Professor / Owner, coaches and other members have become like family to me. I am grateful this club was opened in my community.

I have had both of my daughters enrolled in this school for nearly two years now and am extremely proud of the progress they have made. The coaches instill discipline and focus during class, yet also make it fun and engaging for the kids. Both Professor and Coaches are quick to answer any questions or concerns and go above and beyond to make the school an enjoyable and positive experience for both kids and adults.

We are more then happy to be part of this amazing gym. Me and my kids have been trainig in GB White Rock for more than 4 years so far. They have great after school program as well. The instructors are friendly and so professional. We truly value the life lessons being thought in this gym.

We joined GB about a year ago after moving and they have been so great to work with. Very professional and have gone above and beyond to keep kids motivated through Covid 19 offering both in-class and online classes. Coaches have a great attitude and there are always enough coaches to give the students the attention they need. They also give opportunities throughout the year for families and friends to try out through free self-defense workshop and bring a friend/family day.

Jiu-Jitsu Shows Kids How To Handle Bullies

Unfortunately, bullies are not going anywhere, and your kids should have self-defense skills. Because Jiu-Jitsu concentrates on self-defense tactics on the ground, it is an incredible and non-threatening way to deal with bullies. Your kids can use many locks and holds to neutralize a bully without ever throwing a single punch or kick. Jiu-Jitsu concentrates on leverage rather than strength and power, so it will be a great way to boost your kid’s self-esteem, knowing he can handle bullies even if they are bigger than him. Once your son knows he can defend himself, he will become more confident, and bullies will not want to mess with him.

Jiu-Jitsu Organizes Your Kid For Success In Life

“Kids who train in Jiu-Jitsu have a higher success rate in school. Why? Because it instills discipline, focus, goal-setting, and drive. Every time your child trains in Jiu-Jitsu, these desirable traits are reinforced and developed. This is what makes our Whitrock Kids Jiu-Jitsu classes so effective.”

BJJ Helps Kids Socialize

Jiu-Jitsu is an excellent recreational activity that helps your kids socialize with other kids who they might not otherwise get to meet. The variety of Jiu-Jitsu classes is an ideal setting for your kids to learn about other ethnicities, cultures, and religions. Also, when your kids train with other kids, they will develop trust and build stronger bonds with their teammates.

Jiu-Jitsu helps improve Kids' Coordination And Motor Skills.

Jiu-Jitsu typically involves the use of many sequences to execute techniques. When training in “the gentle art,” your kids will learn to develop fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and coordination. The forced repetitions of these techniques during their training will help your kids commit those movements to muscle memory. As a result, they will develop greater control over their body and be more precise in their actions. Kids who understand how their limbs move with the techniques develop better coordination and improved flexibility.

Jiu-Jitsu Helps Kids Build Healthy Lifestyle Habits

Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes the importance of physical activity and can instill positive habits in your kids from an early age. Through Jiu-Jitsu, kids will participate in physically and intellectually stimulating martial arts, which will help prevent them from lapsing into sedentary lifestyles associated with watching television. Additionally, kids will grow to appreciate the benefits of coordination, flexibility, agility, and endurance as necessary elements to succeed in Jiu-Jitsu.

Jiu-Jitsu helps Kids' Self-Defense

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is both enjoyable and challenging in a recreational sense, but this skill might save your life one day. While many other forms of martial arts are aesthetically pleasing or visually impressive, BJJ is all about efficiency. If you find yourself in a dangerous situation and need to take someone down, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one of the best ways to defend yourself. With various holds and grappling techniques, you can restrict someone to the point where they cannot harm you or anyone else. This could be a solid option for someone who doesn’t feel safe while walking home or for a young child struggling with violent bullies.

Jiu-Jitsu Helps Kids Increase Self Esteem

This is one of the essential benefits of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which many people underestimate. Sometimes, we suffer from low self-esteem because we conclude that we’re weak or incapable of doing anything well. When you become an experienced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu student, you can eliminate these deceptive, unfounded thoughts. After BJJ training, you may feel more confident about public speaking, relationships, and your career. Other people will notice this increase in self-confidence, which can lead to additional benefits.
