Classes are thoughtfully designed to balance fun with skill development, ensuring your child stays engaged and motivated while building a strong foundation in martial arts.

Skills Beyond the Mats

In every class, your child will develop:

• Coordination and Agility: Through interactive drills and exercises, kids improve their balance and body awareness.
• Focus and Discipline: By learning to follow instructions and practice techniques, they build essential life skills that translate to school and beyond.
• Confidence and Resilience: Each success on the mats strengthens their self-esteem, teaching them to approach challenges with determination and courage.

Practical Self-Defense

The Little Sharks program introduces age-appropriate Gracie Jiu-Jitsu techniques, focusing on real-world self-defense skills and controlled grappling. Kids learn how to handle physical situations safely and responsibly, fostering a sense of empowerment without aggression.

Extra Value for Parents: Practice at Home

We know how important it is for parents to feel involved in their child’s progress. That’s why membership includes access to our Online Academy, where you’ll find:

• Gracie Games and Techniques: Practice moves and drills at home in a fun and interactive way.
• Educational Resources: Learn more about Jiu-Jitsu and how it benefits your child’s physical and mental growth.

The Online Academy is a fantastic way to reinforce lessons from class while creating meaningful moments of connection and growth as a family.

Behavior Expectations and Progression

At Calvert MMA Academy®, we are dedicated to maintaining a positive and productive learning environment for all students. For safety and the progression of the class:

• Behavioral Expectations: If a child is repeatedly unable to follow instructions after reminders from instructors, they may be asked to sit out for the remainder of the class. If this behavior continues, we will work with parents to determine the best path forward, which could include pausing or canceling the membership until the child is ready to fully engage in the program.

This policy ensures that all students can train in a safe, supportive, and focused environment while fostering accountability and respect.
