Safeguarding
Your child’s safety and wellbeing are our top priority. All our coaches are First Aid Trained, DBS checked, experienced and qualified to work with young people. Techniques are taught in a controlled, age-appropriate way, with an emphasis on respect, listening and safe training behaviours. Parents are always welcome to speak to a coach before or after a class if they have any questions or concerns.
Uniform Requirements
Kids and teens classes train in a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gi. For your first class feel free to wear any sports clothing but if you decide to train regularly you will need to wear a gi with a fitted rashguard or t-shirt underneath. These can be purchased from us or any other other supplier of your choice.
