My daughter is 7 and started as a complete beginner. She knew nothing about Jiu-Jitsu, was welcomed with open arms and has never looked back since. She was entered into her first competition just a few weeks in and won a silver and bronze medal that she is extremely proud of. Her confidence in the sport has skyrocketed from day one to now.Parent of a junior member
