Kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

At Carlson Gracie Anaheim, our Kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program is designed to help children build confidence, discipline, respect, and real self-defense skills in a safe, structured, and positive environment. Our curriculum is divided by age and experience so every student learns alongside classmates at a similar stage of development. This allows our instructors to provide age-appropriate instruction while helping each child grow at their own pace. Whether your child is looking to gain confidence, improve focus, make new friends, or compete at a high level, we have a program designed to help them succeed.

Pups (Ages 4–6)

Our Pups program introduces young children to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu through fun, structured classes that develop coordination, balance, listening skills, confidence, and respect. Students learn the fundamentals while building positive habits that carry over into school and everyday life.

Juniors (Ages 7–10)

The Juniors program builds a strong technical foundation while developing discipline, teamwork, leadership, and resilience. Students gain practical self-defense skills, improve athletic ability, and learn the importance of perseverance through consistent training.

Bulldogs (Ages 11–14)

Our Bulldogs program prepares older students for advanced Jiu-Jitsu training, competition, and eventually our adult program. Students develop higher-level techniques, physical conditioning, leadership, and the confidence to perform both on and off the mats. For students interested in competition, we also offer an invitation-based Competition Class focused on tournament preparation, strategy, and advanced training.
