    You will never regret sending your children to train in any martial arts. I highly recommend it. Self confident builder for sure

        My 9 year old son goes to Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu (the grove location on 99). There is 40+ kids in his class. It’s a legit gym. The coaches all know what they are doing and are very good with the kids. My son gets his first strip on Wednesday.

          I would suggest adding that or if you have to pick one, go with the Muay Thai first. She can learn BJJ later once she's more comfortable.

              Absolutely BJJ above ever else.

              If a credible gym then they have geared instructions for teaching kiddos how to handle themselves.

              Go take classes with them. Can be some great bonding conversations and practice plus get healthy to boot

                My nephew is 5 he’s been in jiu jitsu since he was 4 and he’s a straight killer , if the gym was closer I’d take my son . He’s a lethal weapon walking I think it’s good for kids .

                  Keep in mind that there are some substantial differences between martial arts and self defense classes. Self defense classes usually teach a few basic mental and physical techniques and are somewhat intense early on whereby the student learns a limited number of self defense moves that they can effectively use within a few weeks or months. Most martial arts classes will teach and instill the basis before slowly progressing into more practically applied aspects of the art, which usually takes years to master properly. There may be classes that merge these two different objectives to keep students interested, but many martial artists usually prefer to concentrate more on the basics to better prepare the students for advance learning. Therefore, the dedication must be more long term to reap the benefits expected.

                    Rut-ro, feel free to shoot me a pm. I will give you my number and would be happy to chat with you on the subject. I teach kids jiu jitsu and my son has been doing it since 4 and is now 9. These kid now are beast. I've been around the mma, jiu jitsu, community for 20+ years. I would absolutely recommend your daughter doing jiu-jitsu before anything else.

                      My daughters train in BJJ and compete (when team sports aren't monopolizing our time). I highly recommend it, although not necessarily in response to what happened on the bus. We view it as a sport that will lead to more confidence and skills (mostly mental) to be effective in a tense situation.

                        Well first class down and she really enjoyed it. We ended up signing signing her up. It seemed like a really good workout for her. I told her we do it 2-3 time a week for 3 months and then re evaluate if she still enjoys it

                            I have several friends that train there for work and really like it. The owner and main guys name is Brian Marvin which he seems very well accredited (to my lack of knowledge in the MA world) we will give it a go for a couple months and see if she wanted to stick with it.
