Kids MMA at Kaizen
MMA stands for mixed martial arts. Our youngest children train in two separate age groups on Saturday mornings. A first taster lets your child meet the coaches, try the activities and see whether they enjoy the class.
Martial arts for ages 3–5
Our youngest group starts at age 3 and meets on Saturdays from 09:00 to 10:00. If you are looking for a first martial arts class for a preschool-age child, this is the group to choose. Under-3s need to wait until they turn 3.
Martial arts for ages 6–8
The next age group meets on Saturdays from 10:00 to 11:00. Your child can start without previous martial arts experience. Choose this class if they are aged 6, 7 or 8, even if they have never trained before.
What to wear for a kids MMA taster
Bring drinking water and clean, comfortable sports clothing without hard fittings or very baggy material. A Gi is not needed for these classes. Bring sliders or flip-flops for changing and toilet areas. There are no shoes on the mats.
What about children aged 9–14?
Older children can start with our beginner-friendly junior BJJ or kickboxing classes. Wednesday Junior MMA for ages 9–14 requires a coach to check foundation and suitability first, so contact the team before attending that session.
