π₯ IS BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU RIGHT FOR YOUR CHILD?
Thinking about putting your child in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but not sure if theyβre ready? Maybe theyβve never trained before. Maybe youβre wondering if Jiu Jitsu is even about fighting.
Letβs clear that up. π
At Upper Academy Florida, kids learn much more than techniques on the mats. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teaches children how to:
π§ Solve problems under pressure
πͺ Build confidence
π― Stay focused and disciplined
π€ Respect coaches and teammates
π£οΈ Listen and follow instructions
π₯ Keep working when things get difficult
π₯ Learn how to handle challenging situations responsibly
And the best part? Your child does NOT need any prior experience.
They donβt need to be athletic. They donβt need to know how to fight. They just need to be willing to learn.
Under the leadership of Professor Walber Barros, Head Instructor and 4th Degree Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt under Nova UniΓ£oβs DedΓ© Pederneiras, your child can learn and grow in a structured environment surrounded by experienced coaches and teammates.
π Jiu Jitsu isnβt about looking for fights. Itβs about learning how to stay calm, control yourself, solve problems, and build confidence.

π₯ A DAY THAT WILL STAY IN OUR HISTORY FOREVER π₯
Yesterday was a night filled with emotion, pride, and gratitude. β€οΈ
There are moments in Jiu-Jitsu that go far beyond a belt. Every promotion carries years of training, sacrifices, struggles, losses, victories, and most importantly, a story built both on and off the mats.
π€ Leandro, congratulations on your 2nd Degree Black Belt. Very few people understand what it means to reach this level and continue evolving. Iβm extremely proud of your journey and everything you represent for our team.
π₯ Xilas, congratulations on your new belt! Seeing you reach this moment fills me with pride and emotion. This belt represents all your dedication, challenges, and everything you have accomplished throughout your journey. May this be the beginning of a new chapter filled with many more achievements. β€οΈπ₯
π€ Dave, congratulations on your Black Belt! Seeing you reach this moment is an incredible joy. A Black Belt does not represent the end of the journey, but the beginning of a new responsibility and a new chapter in your story.
Thank you so much to everyone who came yesterday to share this special moment with us. Having our Jiu-Jitsu family together made the night even more meaningful. β€οΈ
And a heartfelt thank you to Master DedΓ© (AndrΓ© Pederneiras). ππ»β€οΈ
Thank you for believing in us, supporting us, and investing in our team, and for making this moment possible. Your work and legacy continue to change lives through Jiu-Jitsu.
Belts may change, but the history, friendships, and legacy will remain forever.
Iβm extremely proud of all of you.
