There are so many options when embarking on a Jiu Jitsu journey for you kids. If you want a place with ZERO ego and real skill in not only Jiu Jitsu but in their ability to work with young kids then start here. If you want to be hardcore then go to another gym and let your kids get burnt out. If you want your kids to learn the foundation of Jiu Jitsu in an extremely safe learning environment and then compete if and when they want to, then chose Kioto every single time! My little man has come a long long way in a year training two days per week. Love this BJJ family! P.S yes it starts a little repetitive when they are super little. It NEEDS TO! They need to do something 100 times at that age to understand. You will understand they are learning when your 5 year old takes a kid down on the playground that everyone was asking to stop punching them 🤣

Kioto BJJ is great for my young son. They are very patient with him and kind. This has been a great opportunity for him to learn discipline. Thank you, Kioto Team!

I was in town for business and dropped in to train with JR and his students. What an amazing group! Professor JR is top-notch! Very welcoming, kind, and accommodating. I was so happy that I stopped into train. I was able to chat with Professor JR on the way out and we had such a nice conversation. One of a kind! Thanks again Professor. See you next time I am in town!

These guys are incredibly friendly and have a very welcoming training environment, it feels like a family. They also have an incredible kids class with an exceedingly high amount of participation. I would recommend training here if you are in the area or if you are thinking about having your children start their jiu jitsu journey.
