Helping Kids Grow Strong—Inside and Out
Youth Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Clinch Academy
Life will challenge your child.
School pressure. Social dynamics. Confidence. Boundaries.
Our Youth Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program gives kids a safe, structured place to learn how to handle hard things—with strength, discipline, humility & wisdom.
Every Parent Wants the Same Thing
You want your child to:
Be confident—but not arrogant
Be strong—but not aggressive
Stand up for themselves—without becoming a bully
The challenge is finding an environment that builds real confidence and character, not just activity.
Why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for Youth?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches kids how to:
Stay calm under pressure
Solve problems instead of panicking
Use technique—not size or strength
Respect others while establishing boundaries
BJJ gives kids confidence they earn, not confidence they pretend to have.

At Clinch Academy:
Classes are coach-led (Primarily by coaches who have been through the program themselves as kids!)
Safety and respect are non-negotiable
Discipline is taught with care, not fear
Coaches model strength with humility
We don’t create bullies.
We help form capable, respectful young people.
Because your child is worth fighting for.
WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN
More Than Martial Arts
Your child will develop:
Physical coordination and strength
Focus and listening skills
Confidence in difficult situations
Respect for coaches, peers, and themselves
And they’ll have fun doing it.

COMMON PARENT QUESTIONS
Is This Safe?
Yes. Classes are structured, supervised, and age-appropriate.
What If My Child Is Shy or New?
Many kids start that way. BJJ helps them grow at their own pace.
Will This Make My Child Aggressive?
No. BJJ emphasizes control & leverage —not aggression or chaos.
“I cannot say enough about the Clinch Academy. They have given my son the skills and confidence needed to break out of a cycle of victimization that educators were only able to address, but never seemed to be able to stop. He now loves to go to school and he loves going to Clinch Academy.”
“Clinch Academy is simply amazing! The self-confidence my daughter has gained while doing BJJ at Clinch is immeasurable! We will be long-time members at Clinch & continue to refer to our friends!”
“I have two teens enrolled in the BJJ classes here, and could not be happier. This place has great people doing great work in a positive environment. I just love the way my kids are both challenged and supported and I often recommend this excellent martial arts studio to other parents. In addition to exercise, coordination, and self confidence, I love that my son and daughter are gaining critical self defense skills. I don’t worry as much about them being out in the world when I know they have such a deep well of skills and practice in protecting themselves.”
