Kids Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu School

The Vagner Rocha Martial Arts Academy Kids Brazilian Jiu Jitsu program is the safest and most relevant training your child can receive. All children are welcomed and encouraged to come train at our school regardless of their current strengths and abilities. We pride ourselves in building self confidence, physical fitness and self discipline in every child. We do so through a rewarding and caring environment, which leads to most of our students continuing their training into adulthood.

From improved focus, to goal setting, self-discipline and self-respect - kids emerge from this program changed for the better. And their parents couldn't be happier.

We invite you to bring your child for a free trial class or just to come and watch. While there, we welcome you to speak with the other parents and get their opinions about our program.

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely not! We teach kids self-defense as a tool for personal growth and development. Kids learn to treat others as they want to be treated. They learn to respect all living things - from their parents to their pets. Often, kids who are violent before joining our classes have changed and become non-violent individuals. So, in short, martial arts will not make your child violent!

  • I highly recommend his school to any and everyone

    I have been training under Vagner for 10 years now and I can’t describe how much it has changed not only my life but also the lives of my children, my brother and his children as well. It’s more than just a business for Vagner but more of being added to his family while training there. I have been with him from white belt to black belt and wouldn’t have it any other way. I highly recommend his school to any and everyone for the best atmospheric training experience of your life.

  • Vagner and his instructors are incredible

    If you are looking for a quality Brazilian Jiujitsu gym to train at with a family atmosphere, this is it. My husband, our 4 children, and I, trained at VRMA with Vagner and his crew for quite some time before we moved out of state. Vagner and his instructors are incredible, and they all kindly received each one of us with open arms. Our youngest son has special needs. He was taught, allowed to train and compete, and treated no different than any other child in the class. The values that our children were taught at VRMA are life lessons that will never be forgotten, and the love shown to our family by Vagner, his instructors, and his family will forever hold a special place in our hearts- we will forever be grateful for each and every one of them and will always consider them all family.
