From the reviews
I have 4 sons and they are involved in a number of sports/hobbies. We have searched many years, looking for the perfect martial arts program. There are facilities which claim to be "martial arts", but upon further analysis I find their main pull is the after school day cares and summer camps, leaving martial arts as…
This has been far the most rewarding program for kids. Sinse my daughter started a few months ago,the change in her is remarkable. She has more confidence in her self,she can walk tall with a smile on her face.
Stonecoast Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been incredible for our family. My children have trained here for over three years and have grown so much in confidence, discipline, and self-pride. The coaches are supportive, patient, and truly invested in each child’s growth,both on and off the mats.
Stonecoast Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is more than just a place to train—it's a welcoming community where kids and families can learn, grow, and connect. Classes are offered 6 days a week, all the coaches are welcoming and encouraging and overall enrolling our son has been a great experience for our family.
Your first muay thai class at Stonecoast Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for Kids
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
