MUAYTHAI & BRAZILAIN JIU-JITSU

AT AOT WE RUN 2 MARTIAL ARTS PROGRAMS, MUAYTHAI (STRIKING), AND BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU (GRAPPLING). THE TWO MARTIAL ARTS COULDN'T ME MORE DIFFERENT, YET THEY ARE COMPLEMENTARY WHEN IT COMES TO EFFECTIVE SELF DEFENCE. 

OUR CLASSES ARE STRUCTURED INTO BOTH AGE CATEGORIES AND EXPERIENCE LEVELS. AS YOUR CHILD PROGRESSES, THEY MOVE INTO A HIGHER LEVEL, MORE CHALLENGING CLASS.

​

KIDS 5-7 PROGRAM

THIS IS OUR YOUNGEST AGE GROUP AND A GREAT TIME TO START YOUR CHILD ON THEIR MUAYTHAI OR JIU JITSU JOURNEY. THE CURRICULUM IN THIS PROGRAM IS CENTERED AROUND EXERCISES AND GAMES THAT WILL INTRODUCE OUR YOUNGEST STUDENTS TO THE BASIC MOVEMENTS AND CORE VALUES.

PROGRAM GOALS:

- INSTILL SELF-DISCIPLINE AND PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
- DEVELOP PHYSICAL AWARENESS AND COORDINATION
- BUILD STRENGTH, SPEED AND BALANCE WITH SPECIFIC EXERCISES
- INCREASE THE SITUATIONAL AND POSITIONAL SPARRING
- USE GOAL SETTING AS A METHOD FOR SELF-IMPROVEMENT

WE WILL REINFORCE:
- GOOD BEHAVIOR AND ABILITY TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
- ABILITY TO FOCUS IN A GROUP SETTING
- BASIC POSITIONS AND TECHNIQUES
- BUILDING CONFIDENCE AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS

PROGRAM LEVELS:
- LEVEL 01 (BASICS)
- LEVEL 02 (INTERMEDIATE)

IN THE 5-7 YEAR-OLD PROGRAM, STUDENTS WILL DEVELOP A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF SPARRING AND HOW TO APPLY THE TECHNIQUES. THIS PROGRAM HAS A DIVERSITY OF LEVELS (01, AND 2) AND THE INSTRUCTORS WILL GROUP THE STUDENTS BASED ON THEIR EXPERIENCE AND GOALS.

LEVEL 01: 

THIS IS THE INTRODUCTORY LEVEL FOR THIS AGE GROUP, WHERE NEWER STUDENTS WILL HAVE ATTENTION AND GUIDANCE TO CREATE THE BEST EXPERIENCE OUT OF THEIR INITIAL PHASE. EVERY NEW STUDENT WILL BE INTRODUCED TO AN INSTRUCTOR WHO WILL GUIDE THEM DURING THEIR FIRST LESSON.

STUDENTS WILL STAY IN THIS LEVEL UNTIL THEY BECOME COMFORTABLE WITH THE CORE TECHNIQUES. WE RESPECT EVERY STUDENT'S PROGRESSION AS AN INDIVIDUAL JOURNEY AND WE FOCUS ON CREATING A SMOOTH TRANSITION FROM ONE LEVEL TO THE NEXT.

LEVEL 02: 

STUDENTS IN LEVEL 02 ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE CORE TECHNIQUES AND SPARRING. IN THIS LEVEL, THE CLASSES HAVE MORE DRILLS AND LESS GAMES, AND STUDENTS WILL START TO LEARN TO USE THE SPARRING ROUNDS AND SPECIFIC TRAINING TO CREATE A CHALLENGING AND FUN ATMOSPHERE.

IN LEVEL 02, STUDENTS WILL LEARN HOW TO CONTROL THEIR EMOTIONS, FOCUS ON TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENT, AND CREATE STRONG COMMUNICATION SKILLS THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO ASK MORE TECHNICAL QUESTIONS.
