YOUTH PROGRAMS

 

Bully Proofing Classstrong kids

This class teaches determination and responsibility by utilizing a series of 10 "Gracie Games" in which we secretly teach the children essential self-defense techniques. By playing the fun and challenging "Gracie Games," children develop strong reflexes in the execution of the basic techniques as they unconsciously learn the foundational principles of leverage and control.

 

Cost: $26 for members; $41 for non-members for a four-week session

Ages: 5-14 years
When: 4:15-5:15 p.m., Tuesdays & Thursdays
