Elementum Jiu Jitsu Kids Program
At Elementum JJ Oviedo, we believe in the power of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) to build character, confidence, and life skills in children.
Our programs are designed to help kids develop discipline, focus, and respect while having fun and learning self-defense techniques.
We offer three tailored age-specific classes to ensure that each child’s training is appropriate for their physical and mental development.
Kids 1: Ages 3-5 Years Old
Our Kids 1 program is designed for the youngest martial artists, focusing on building a strong foundation in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in a fun, engaging, and safe environment.

Kids 2: Ages 5-8 Years Old
The Kids 2 program is a step up from the foundational lessons of Kids 1, offering more structured learning for children who are ready to expand their skills in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

The Juniors program is for children who are ready for more advanced training. At this stage, kids are refining their techniques, building physical conditioning, and becoming more serious about their BJJ journey. Our goal is to help them develop mental and physical strength while teaching them life skills like leadership, perseverance, and respect.
