Why Choose Family Martial Arts at Gracie Barra Burleigh Heads?

Training Together as a Family

Training in martial arts as a family offers an excellent way to spend quality time together while staying active. At Gracie Barra Burleigh Heads, our family programme allows parents, children, and even siblings to train side by side, learning valuable self-defence skills while reinforcing values such as respect, discipline, and perseverance.

• Shared Experience: Engaging in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu together as a family helps create a stronger bond. The shared experience of training, learning, and growing together fosters a deeper connection between family members, enhancing communication and teamwork.
• Positive Role Models: Parents training with their children serve as positive role models, demonstrating the importance of dedication, hard work, and perseverance both on and off the mats.

Fitness for All Ages

Our Family Martial Arts Programme offers a full-body workout that benefits individuals of all fitness levels. BJJ’s unique blend of strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular exercise ensures that both children and adults experience improvements in their overall health and fitness.

• Strength and Endurance: The dynamic movements and techniques practised in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu develop functional strength, improving core muscles, stamina, and physical endurance.
• Flexibility and Coordination: Regular BJJ training helps improve flexibility and coordination, essential for both adults and children to enhance their mobility and balance.
• Cardiovascular Health: The physical demands of BJJ promote cardiovascular fitness, ensuring that the entire family stays healthy while enjoying a fun and engaging activity.

Self-Defence Skills for the Whole Family

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is renowned for its effectiveness in self-defence. Unlike many martial arts that rely on striking, BJJ focuses on using leverage and technique to control and neutralise larger or stronger opponents. This makes it an ideal self-defence system for both children and adults.

• Real-World Application: Our family classes teach practical self-defence techniques that can be used in real-life situations. You’ll learn how to defend yourself and your loved ones by using submissions, positional control, and escapes to avoid danger.
• Confidence in Safety: Parents gain peace of mind knowing that their children are equipped with practical self-defence skills that will help them stay safe in a variety of scenarios.

Life Skills Development

Our Family Martial Arts Programme is not only about physical fitness and self-defence—it also promotes the development of key life skills that benefit both children and adults. Training in BJJ helps students cultivate discipline, focus, and perseverance, skills that are essential for success both on and off the mats.

• Discipline and Focus: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu requires concentration and self-discipline to master techniques and progress through the belt system. These qualities translate to improved focus in school for children and greater productivity in everyday life for adults.
• Respect and Teamwork: Families learn the importance of respect for one another and their training partners. BJJ fosters a culture of teamwork, encouraging collaboration and mutual support among family members.
• Perseverance: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches students that success comes through hard work and perseverance. Overcoming challenges in training helps build resilience and determination, qualities that are valuable in all areas of life.
