When kids hit moments of boredom, tiredness, nervousness, or fear, it can feel easier to let them step away. But if quitting becomes the pattern, the hidden lesson is:
🚫 “You can’t handle discomfort.”
🚫 “Avoid challenge.”
🚫 “Quit when it gets hard.”
Jiu-Jitsu isn’t just about self-defense. It’s about emotional growth, impulse control, respect, and resilience. Kids who stick with it learn how to carry themselves with confidence — and that changes everything.
💡 For kids who feel like quitting, I recommend training twice per week to avoid burnout.
And remember — once a week is still powerful. I’ve seen kids make incredible progress in confidence, skill, and self-defense even training just once weekly.
(See the front desk for options on training once per week)
As a coach and mom of 2, I urge you:
✨ Find a way to keep Jiu-Jitsu in your child’s life.
It may be one of the greatest gifts you give them.
