Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for teenagers aged 11–16 at Dojo Martial Arts Abu Dhabi, taught by internationally certified coaches across the school's Al Mushrif and Al Reem Island locations. Covers takedowns, guard positions, submissions, and live rolling — a genuinely complete martial art for self-defence, fitness, and mental resilience rather than just sport grappling. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday sessions run up to 70 minutes.
This session runs 70 minutes, for ages 11–16. Classes follow a structured format: a formal bow-in, warm-up and conditioning, technique drills, and practice with partners. Children are never paired with adults. The belt or grading system provides clear milestones — most academies hold gradings every 3–4 months. Uniforms (gi or dobok) are usually required and can be purchased through the academy. Dojo Martial Arts Abu Dhabi offers a free trial session before you commit.
Parent tip
Quality martial arts instruction emphasises restraint and respect, not aggression. If a class feels intimidating or overly competitive for beginners, it's the wrong academy. The best instructors create an environment where children genuinely want to return.

The sensei is brilliant with kids — strict but fair. My son has so much discipline now.
