Absolutely! Our programs are designed for all levels — no prior experience or athletic background needed. We focus on building confidence, coordination, and resilience step-by-step, at each child’s own pace.

Not at all. At Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Summerlin, we teach non-violent self-defense based on leverage and control, not punches or kicks. Kids learn how to avoid conflict, stay calm, and protect themselves in a safe and respectful way.

Yes! Especially for kids, we combine discipline with fun. Classes include games, challenges, and positive reinforcement — all while teaching valuable life skills like respect, focus, and perseverance.

Children can start as early as 3 years old in our Mighty Mights program. We adapt the teaching style to each age group, making it engaging, age-appropriate, and meaningful from the very beginning.

Safety is our top priority. Our instructors are highly trained to maintain a safe and controlled environment, and techniques are taught with care and supervision. Injuries are rare, and classes are structured to build skill without unnecessary risk.
