At McMahon Training Center we offer kids’ martial arts classes in both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai Kickboxing. In our Little Champs program for 4-6 year olds, we teach both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai Kickboxing in the same class through Gracie Games and drills. For kids that are 7-15, we offer separate Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai Kickboxing classes throughout the week. Classes include technique drills, games, live training, and a daily Mat Chat, where coaches discuss the life lessons of martial arts.

What to expect for your child’s first class at McMahon:

Congratulations on enrolling your child in a complimentary class! One of our staff members will be in contact soon to gather your child's name and arrange their first class. They will reach out the day before to confirm the details, and send you a digital waiver.

On the day of the class, we kindly request that you arrive 15 minutes early so we can show you the facility and explain to you and your child the flow of the class. Depending on which class they’re taking, we give them boxing gloves or a Gi to use, and introduce them to their coach, who will introduce them to other students in the class.

The class commences with some calisthenics and a few fundamental techniques to get everyone warmed up, and then the instructor will pair students up. All of our students understand the significance and responsibility of assuming the role of the more skilled partner, and looking out for their fellow teammate.

Students observe the instructor showcase a technique, and then they practice it with their partner, while the coaches circulate to offer assistance to everyone. In the final segment of the class, students engage in live wrestling rounds, putting into action the techniques they acquired during the class!

What parents are saying about our program

“McMahon Training Center has helped our son in every area of his life.”
Our son has had the privilege of taking Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu from Finnie McMahon for the past three years. Jiu-Jitsu has helped our son in every area of his life from schoolwork, discipline, and respect, to self-esteem and coordination. Finnie has an amazing rapport with children. He is able to combine his expertise in Jiu-Jitsu with patience, kindness and encouragement. He creates the perfect atmosphere for kids to learn and love Jiu-Jitsu. We highly recommend McMahon Training Center!
