Self-discipline and Focus

To master the martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a student must pay attention and train diligently to perfect their technique.

Respect For Their Teachers and Friends

Martial arts instructors are in a unique position to teach children about respect and honor. Students must follow instructions and orders. A martial artist understands that training partners are there to learn and improve alongside them.

Leadership and Team Spirit

Training at Gracie Barra Clearwater, a child finds himself joining a team of successful martial artists, and as they move up the belt ranks they’ll find newest students looking to them for help and guidance.

Responsibility and Self Control

With the ability to fight and defend themselves comes the responsibility of using their knowledge wisely. In class, students learn how to apply techniques with control to ensure their training partners’ safety.

Determination and a Will to Succeed

There is no easy road to black belt. We can show them the way and encourage them, but your child must make the journey on their own two legs. Along the way, they will experience what it’s like to be tested and pushed to perform. Sparring and tournaments will expose your child to healthy competition and bring out the champion in them.

A Clear, Uncluttered Mind

The modern world bombards kids from every angle. TV, video games and the internet are all vying for their attention, each eager to fill your child’s head with their special agendas, ad campaigns and nonsense. Give your child a chance to unplug and really interact with fellow human beings.
