The numbers are alarming: 70% of anti-bullying programs reportedly have little impact—or may even lead to increased victimization.

Why? Many programs focus on the behavior rather than the underlying power imbalance. Bullies often target those they perceive as vulnerable, and traditional approaches may draw more attention to victims without giving them the confidence or skills to protect themselves.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu takes a different approach. Through technique, a child learns how to safely control someone larger and stronger. It’s not about encouraging kids to fight—it’s about building confidence, awareness, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. That confidence changes how they carry themselves and can make them less likely to be targeted.

Research also suggests that martial arts training can reduce bullying victimization by 64% and bullying behavior by 41%, helping address both sides of the problem.
