Youth & Tween BJJ
Grappling — escapes, submissions and control, not strength. You'll roll live once you've got the basics down, at your own pace.

Ages 13–15 · BJJ · Muay Thai
Teens. Trained like the adults are.
You've got two ways to train at Rumble: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Youth & Tween BJJ, or Muay Thai in Youth Muay Thai. Same coaches, same mats as the adults. Sparring isn't part of your first classes — that's a choice you make later, once you decide you're ready for it.
2 weeks free · every class · unlimited
There are 2 trial spots in every class.What training here actually looks like
Every class starts with a warm-up, then a coach breaks down a technique or skill for the day, and you drill it with a partner. BJJ classes usually finish with live rolling — using what you just learned against someone who's actually resisting. Muay Thai classes finish on pads or the bag. Coaches teach to the newest person in the room every time, so showing up without ever training before isn't a problem.
At 16 you move into the adult program automatically.
BJJ or Muay Thai — try one, or try both
Both are included in your two free weeks.
Youth Muay Thai
Striking — footwork, pads and conditioning. No contact needed to start; sparring's an option later, not a requirement.

Here's exactly what to expect.
Nothing to buy first
Shorts or leggings and a t-shirt is enough. No shoes on the mats — socks are fine. We've got loaner gear for your trial classes.
No contact, no sparring, not yet
Beginners work technique, pads and drilling with a partner. Sparring exists for people who choose it later, once they've got the basics down — never on day one.
Coaches teach to you, not around you
Whether you've never trained anything before or you've done another sport for years, coaches adjust to where you're actually at.
Who else your age trains here
You won't be the only teen on the mats. Here's one of our own students, in his own words:
“I love training with all the Coaches and taking part in tournaments. Aside from the belts and the moves my favorite part about Rumble is that I always feel that I have a place to belong.”
— Spencer A., Youth & Tween BJJ
