Rilion Gracie Kansas City

Watch a kids class in action and you'll see it right away. Small grapplers learning real technique while coaches keep a close eye on every rep.

That's the heart of our kids jiu jitsu classes at Rilion Gracie Jiu Jitsu Kansas City. Students ages 5 to 16 learn Gracie jiu jitsu through drills, games, and partner work that build confidence, balance, and self-control. Because Brazilian jiu jitsu classes rely on leverage instead of size, every kid can succeed on the mat.

Our kids self defense classes also teach smart, practical skills along with respect, honesty, and good sportsmanship. And when the whole family wants in, we have adult martial arts classes running all week, so parents can train while the kids do.

With school back in full swing, September is a great time for Gladstone and Liberty families to add structure, fitness, and fun to the weekly routine.
