Kid-Jitsu (Ages 8 to 12)

It's never too early for children to start learning self defense and our core principles. At Elite Training Center, children are taught Respect, Honor, Strength, and Discipline in a safe and fun learning environment. These techniques build strong character, greater respect for parents and others, and strong bodies.

Elite Training Center is proud to present “Street Safe Kids Karate & Jiu-Jitsu”, our original kids self‑defense classes. This unique program combines reality‑based self‑defense and traditional stand up martial arts techniques, including Karate, Kickboxing, Jiu-Jitsu, LOTAR® and the radKids® personal empowerment and safety program.


We use age‑specific methods to teach your children realistic “street safe” awareness in a fun and interactive environment that emphasises:

  • Effective self defense
  • Self confidence
  • Physical fitness
  • Discipline
  • Balance & coordination
