Real Jiu-Jitsu. Real Progress. Real Fun.
At Big Mike’s, our kids program isn’t just playtime with belts.
We focus on:
✅ Structured learning
✅ Strong values
✅ Fun, engaging classes
If your child is ready to grow on and off the mats we’re here to help.
Structure
(Not Babysitting)
We run small, intentional classes using a rotating curriculum. Kids learn:
Core positions & techniques
Movement, balance, & coordination
Clear steps for steady skill growth
✅ New students can jump in any time and start progressing from day one.
Values
We reinforce what you teach at home.
Through Jiu-Jitsu, we help your kids develop FRED O:
Focus – Stay present, following instructions.
Respect – Show it for others. Earn it for yourself.
Effort – Show up, work hard.
Discipline – Self-control. Do the things required for success... even when you don't feel like it.
Ownership – Taking responsibility for your actions and your situation.
We teach more than techniques. We teach habits of character.
Fun
Because happy kids learn better.
We keep training fun so kids want to come back:
Skill-building games
Just-right challenges
A team-focused environment
They’ll laugh, learn, and leave proud of themselves.

Got a Child Under 8?
We specialize in teaching ages 8–12. Here’s why:
Younger kids learn differently. Teaching them well requires very small class sizes and a different structure.
Most 7-and-under martial arts classes are unstructured. They often feel more like tumbling or daycare than martial arts.
We’re not saying it can’t be done well. But to do it right requires more bandwidth than we can currently give.
If your child isn’t 8 yet, we recommend you explore the other options in town. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, come back when they’re a little older.
We’ll be here.
