About the Event
4-Week Intro Program
Preschooler Brazilian Jiu Jitsu + Yoga Class
Wednesdays 12:00 - 1:00pm
Ages 3-5 year old
A first and only of it's kind in Calgary! This class is a great way to get your child involved in a physical activity that trains them both physically and mentally. In a fun and safe environment, children will learn fundamental Brazilian Jiu Jitsu/Self Defense while also learning Breathwork and Yoga postures.
With a strong focus on the fundamentals movements of both Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Yoga, this combination class teaches children the importance of learning a Self Defense while also understanding and listening to the body, recognizing the importance of the breath and how it benefits us on a mental and physical level, and how to combine the two to benefit us on all levels.
This class promotes a healthy self-confidence, a positive attitude, discipline, respect, problem-solving, and many other beneficial developmental qualities such as balance, coordination, focus, and self-control. Through practical and playful teachings the children learn valuable life skills, technical skills - while also building friendships - and of course - having fun! All experience levels are welcome.
Classes are taught by Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt, Professor Diana Trang (also a certified Yoga and Meditation Teacher).
