JIU-JITSU is one of the SAFEST SPORT for young children.

Is Jiu Jitsu good for children?
The best learning environment for young children does not put pressure on them to perform. Jiu-jitsu is one of the safest sports for young children. They will have fun, learn new skills, improve their coordination, get a great workout and most importantly remain safe.

Fight for a kid social project exists to provide opportunities to children living in the favelas (slums) of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil through the enrichment of Jiu-Jitsu. This past year, with your help, we were able to help a group compete at the Kid’s Pan American Tournament at Long Beach, CA and many took home medals.
