KIDS JIU-JITSU
In today’s world, kids face challenges that go far beyond the playground—bullying, low self-esteem, short attention spans, and endless distractions from screens. Many parents struggle to find an activity that builds their child’s confidence, teaches respect, and keeps them active… all while being something they genuinely enjoy.
Without the right outlet, children can become withdrawn, overly shy, or even struggle with discipline and focus. Team sports aren’t for everyone, and some activities fail to keep kids engaged long-term.
As a parent, you want more than just another after-school program, you want something that will prepare your child for life both physically and mentally.
At ARES AZ Jiu-Jitsu Academy, our world-class Kids Jiu-Jitsu program is designed to do exactly that. We combine proven martial arts training with a fun, safe, and structured environment where kids learn:
Confidence – Believing in themselves on and off the mats.
Discipline – Building habits that stick for life.
Focus – Improving attention span and concentration.
Self-Defense Skills – The ability to protect themselves, using the #1 martial art for real-world situations.
Every class is led by experienced instructors who understand how to motivate, challenge, and inspire kids of all ages. Students progress at their own pace, make new friends, and develop life skills that extend far beyond our academy.
Whether your child is shy and needs a confidence boost, bursting with energy and needs a positive outlet, or somewhere in between—our Kids Jiu-Jitsu program will help them thrive.
📅 Get Started Today – Give your child the gift of confidence, focus, and resilience. Book a free trial class and watch them grow with every lesson.
Testimonials
"My family joined, but my three sons mainly go ages 14, 13, and 7 years old. I find the academy to be a great place for people of all ages. The coaches are patient, understanding and will knowledgeable of the Brazilian jiu-jitsu art, and a very youth friendly environment.
"It's a Great Academy"
"This place is truly amazing. I’ve never done any martial arts or wrestling or fighting. I took my family for an intro class and it was exactly what we’ve been looking for. Something for me, my wife, and my daughter. Very inviting! Going into a gym for the first time is always intimidating. Between the other students, the coaches, and the atmosphere that intimidation goes to zero almost immediately. This is the kind of place that makes advanced students better but also gives white belts a seriously well balanced base in fundamentals. You will not regret checking this gym out."
"Paul and Leslie Nava and all his coaches have created an amazing atmosphere of learning. I love being part of this family and community! BJJ will change your life, and if you ever want to take that step ... Ares BJJ is the place to start the journey!
