Brazilian Jiu-jitsu - What does training together as a family offer?
1. BJJ Training Strengthens The Family Bond
Strong family bonds are important foundations for kids and teens social and emotional development. Not only time at home can help you bond but also physical activity such as BJJ family training. Through training together, you give your child unconditional support and encouragement.
2. Train for Self Defense
At Global Jiu-jitsu, we teach self-defense that can be applied by both kids and adults. Since BJJ is a grappling martial art, it allows for a more varied responses to attacks or threats. Kids who may be bullied can learn how to escape from violence or subdue the aggressor, using submission attacks as self-defense tools in extreme situations. For adults, learning BJJ minimizes your risk for being injured from an attack since you learn to wrestle to gain dominant positions.
3. Preventative Health & Wellness
Through Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, parents and kids can have a fun way to stay in shape. Parents who engage in regular physical activity set a positive example for their children. It helps introduce your kids to new ways of being active, and BJJ can be easily adapted to suit different ages, sizes, levels, and preferences. With time, kids are more likely to keep this habit and become physically active adults themselves.
4. Establishes Good Boundaries
By training in BJJ, kids learn the techniques as well as rules associated with it. With this martial art, kids and teens develop character-building skills that will eventually become applicable to all areas of their lives.
5. Relieves Stress and Anxiety
Global Brazilian Jiu-jitsu community serves as a fantastic way to give a support system for you and your family. Brazilian Jiu-jitsu brings people together and offers a strong community. The longer you train, the more you will realize how much it can help relieve stress.
6. Improves Work and School Performance
Because BJJ involves the amount of time you put in training as well as the effort you put into furthering your skill, this teaches you that when there is a challenge ahead, you learn to embrace it and learn how to do better each time. In work and school, this translates to improved performance and active participation.
