About This Camp
Wherever you are we have a kids class near you!
for all ages and fitness goals†
Here at Capital, we offer kids Jiu-Jitsu classes at all of our locations. According to Occupational Therapy for Helping Children, jiu-jitsu can help children with emotional regulation in a dynamic and playful environment, motor coordination through the utilization of kinesthetics, strength, and body awareness, increased social skills from our friendly and family-oriented environments, promotion of sensory processing skills, and increased confidence and self-esteem. We also offer kids Crossfit & fitness, Muay Thai, and mixed martial arts (MMA) classes. Children have fun, become healthier and more confident.
Capital MMA Dulles is also launching their first-ever kids MMA class. We hope to teach your child about confidence, discipline, and real-world self-defense in a fun and safe environment. This is a full martial arts experience—fun, safe, and perfect for kids to learn, grow, and crush it on the mats!
