From Esopus and Diner to the Mat

If your weekends already include tubing the Esopus, diner breakfasts, or arts events, training Jiu-Jitsu in Tannersville is an easy next step. Kids who tube, hike, or ski already have the balance and curiosity to do well on the mat.

Ski in the morning, roll in the afternoon. Classic Catskills day.

A Calm, Safe First Step Into Jiu-Jitsu

We keep the room small, calm, and structured so new students -- and new parents -- can relax. No loud sparring pit, no "toughen up" lectures. We teach consent, boundaries, and how to tap and stop safely.

If you drive up from Phoenicia and your child feels overwhelmed, we always have a quiet corner and a reset plan. They can watch, breathe, or try again another day. No pressure to push through tears just because you made the trip.

Quick Answers for Phoenicia Families

Do we have to sign a long contract?

No. Most Phoenicia families start with the Young Leader Protocol Core (12 Weeks) ($550 kids) / Executive Longevity Protocol Core (12 Weeks) ($715 adults). After that, choose the Annual Black Belt Track.

Can my child start with a calm intro?

Yes. We start with the Young Leader Protocol Core (12 Weeks) so your child can meet the room, the coach, and the pace before you commit.

What if my child is shy or nervous?

Totally normal. We start slow, pair them with patient partners, and never force anyone to demonstrate in front of the group.

Can siblings train together?

Often, yes. Tell us the ages, and we will help you find the best class times and groups.
