Two of our kids' students with only a few months of training:

At New City Jiu-Jitsu, we believe in leaving the fantasy stuff out of the training and keeping it real: every professional fighter knows that wrestling is the ultimate foundation. Why? Because it allows you to dictate where the engagement happens. Worried about the punch? Go underneath it and take them down. Don't want them to take you to the ground? Good luck getting a trained wrestler on their back, even if you're bigger than them.

We start by teaching our kids boundaries, verbal cues to enforce boundaries, and then finally how to control someone with non-violent restraints and holds.
This is a more realistic and less archaic approach than teaching your kids how to spin kick the bully in the face or attack them with a barrage of strikes.

This grappling aspect also builds a very strong body and a true work ethic. Parents tell us that they love how their kid behaves when they get home from class, having expelled all that energy.

If this sounds like a good fit for your child, why not try two weeks of free training?

An advanced student hitting a perfect "gift wrap" into jujigatame in jiu-jitsu sparring.

He starts by utilizing a cross grip to force the arm to the ground. Going palm up and pushing the far arm at the wrist or hand lines up anatomically so that you can engage major muscle groups to push diagonally against weak muscle groups. In this case, the specific grip allows the triceps, chest, and thoracic muscles to work against the isolated rotator muscles—a battle that is impossible to lose. When the person on bottom tries to keep their hands connected to help the situation, it allows for what's called a gift wrap grip once their near elbow begins to go past the center line. From there, it's easy to swarm into a devastating series of submission attacks! 🥋

An Americana system.

An important part of our kickboxing curriculum at NCJJ is head movement. Why? Because the number one target in a fight (sport or otherwise) is the head, and the number one attack is a punch. Blocking a punch is great, but if you can go underneath or slip past the punch, you can set up your grappling. In MMA, this is known as "shootboxing." Reactive shootboxing is about avoiding the punch to shoot for a takedown. Proactive shootboxing is about throwing a punch of your own to occupy them and clear a path for a takedown.
NCJJ believes all jiu-jitsu students should study striking arts (and vice versa) to become the complete martial artist!

I'm excited to introduce our new kids and families program!

Here's one if the many aspects that sets us apart from other martial arts classes for kids:

We DO NOT spend much time teaching kids to kick and punch for self-defense. Let's be blunt: striking alone is a excessive, dangerous and archaic approach for a young child to index on for self-defense.

Instead, we focus on verbal boundary-setting, maintaining safe distances, and situational awareness. We teach them how to avoid and defend strikes and shoves, leading to safe but effective takedowns and tried and true control positions.

We utilize a combination of wrestling and jiu-jitsu techniques that we have mastered through years of training and competition.

This realistic, safe approach also builds strength, endurance, and confidence!

We’re now accepting new students and offering free trials.

DM me for details!

As he should!

One thing about new city jiu-jitsu is we don't necessarily accept anyone/everyone, and we also reserve the right to expel students from the school!

In the four years that my school has been open, I have only had to expel three students and have refused to accept two potential students.

Curating the community is important. A good martial arts school puts contribution first- We genuinely love to give people an outlet for their daily stressors and offer a path to becoming mentally and physically more adaptable but we cannot have asymmetry in that endeavor—
to put an undue amount of energy and effort into an individual who may be causing headaches/issues in our school or who is demonstrating erratic, alarming, or toxic behavior during their intro class is non-negotiable.
