Gracie Bullyproof® (Kids Martial Arts)

Age Range: 6 - 12 |  Experience Requirement: None

Every month in the United States, three million children miss school due to fear of bullies. In the Gracie Bullyproof® program, our goal is to instill in your child unshakable confidence so they can overcome bullies without violence. Due to the non-violent nature of the techniques, CNN, ABC, NBC, and Oprah have featured the Gracie Bullyproof program as one of the few effective counter-measures to bullying for children between the ages of 5 and 13.

We will teach your child to use verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and several non-violent self-defense techniques to stay safe if physically assaulted. Importantly, we don’t teach how to punch or kick, since this often does more harm than good. Instead, we use leverage-based control holds to neutralize threats without violence. Numerous school districts have embraced the defensive nature of the Gracie Bullyproof techniques as a reasonable, nonviolent response to bullying and some even host Gracie Bullyproof classes on campus!

Why Huntington Beach Communities Love Gracie Jit-Jitsu Martial Arts School.

Kimberly Braun recommends Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Huntington Beach

Our son started the Gracie Bullyproof program in early February and he loves it. It's really cool to see his confidence grow. He's become more social in Jiu-jitsu class as well as outside of the program. He's also become more respectful and mature, even just in this short time. We can't say enough good things about the coaches, they are all wonderful, and the kids just adore them. We highly recommend Gracie Jiu-jitsu HB - we couldn't be happier!

Started at Gracie Jiu-jitsu a couple months ago and love it. Carlos and all the coaches are great, friendly, extremely knowledgeable and recommend 110%.

Renn Shaver recommends Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Huntington Beach

I have been training here for several years and cannot recommend it enough. Carlos is an excellent instructor who can work with folks of all ages and all focus types. From children to adults, from hobbyists to serious practitioners. I drive to Huntington Beach specifically train at this gym despite the fact that there are many other gyms and affiliations that are more convenient for my schedule.

My 11 year old child's been attending for a few years now. Absolutely adores it! Carlos runs the best studio; he creates a very warm and friendly environment. Kind, soft spoken and gentle with his students. I can't recommend it enough!!

Michael C. recommends Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Huntington Beach

Master Carlos and his staff have been such amazing instructors with my son. They are patient, knowledgeable, practice humility and have a good sense of humor with the kids. I've been around MANY coaches and instructors growing up, as I've wrestled for our high school, taken karate, judo, and aikido, and Master Carlos and his staff are some of the best I've ever been around. You will not be disappointed with having your children train here. The only reason we could not continue was due to some time conflicts with swimming, and the fact that we live on the far side of FV, so it takes some time to get down to the dojo. I look forward to taking my son back (he still asks about it) when the time is right.

I’ve spent the last year plus working out with Carlos and his crew. He has welcomed my teenagers into the program and worked with the three of us at our individual levels. He’s a great teacher and I’m still going 3x/week for personal growth and self-defense.

Program & Pricing FAQs

My child isn't athletic. Can he/she still participate in martial arts?

Absolutely. Martial arts teaches kids to be coordinated, flexible and strong. Kids who don't naturally have these qualities develop them. Kids who do have these qualities will enhance them to a more advanced level.

Are these martial arts classes fun?

Yes! After all, these are children we're dealing with here. And kids love their fun. We do a variety of games and activities that have kids laughing and smiling. We work hard here - but we play just as hard.

What's a good age for a child to start martial arts?

Honestly, practically every age is a good age to start! We have young children, as well as teenagers. We also have specific programs for adults. So no matter what age - we've got you covered.

Can martial arts cause injury?

Because we place such a huge focus on safety and injury prevention, we're proud to say that injuries are very few and far between with our program. In fact, because martial arts gets you in great shape, and makes you strong and flexible, people often see LESS injuries in their lives.

Do you have to be in good shape to take martial arts?

Not at all! In fact, many people use martial arts as a way to get in good shape. They come to us out of shape, and quickly become athletic and limber.

Is martial arts violent?

No! Because self-defense technique is taught in martial arts, it's often thought of as violent. However, the philosophies behind martial arts revolve around peace and harmony. The moves are more of a way to become connected with your body. We teach diplomacy and friendship. However, if a violent situation ever arises in your life, you'll have powerful tools to defend yourself and your loved ones.
