Kids Program
Kids Jiu Jitsu, Ages 4 to 6
A playful first step onto the mat
Movement, Listening, and Fun
For our youngest students, jiu jitsu starts with movement, listening, and fun. Ages 4 to 6 learn to balance, roll, and follow along with a coach, all through games that build coordination without feeling like a lesson. The goal at this age is simple. Help each kid feel comfortable on the mat, make a friend, and want to come back next week.
Where the Habit Begins
Classes are short and full of energy, so little ones stay engaged from start to finish. Coaches keep the room warm and encouraging, and every kid gets attention. Parents are welcome to watch. This is where the habit of showing up begins, and where a shy kid often surprises everyone, including themselves.
Why Start at 4 to 6
At this age, kids are building the coordination and confidence that everything else stands on. A friendly mat, a patient coach, and a few new friends go a long way. We keep it playful on purpose, because a kid who has fun is a kid who keeps training.
Our youngest class turns jiu jitsu into games that build balance, listening, and confidence. At Allground Jiu Jitsu in Reno, ages 4 to 6 get short, high-energy classes and a patient coach. Parents are welcome to watch while their kid makes a few new friends on the mat.

Google Review“Brand new student here. Came over as a blue belt. I am so happy I came here. The coaches are fun, cool, kind, welcoming and do an amazing job explaining technique and being encouraging. This academy makes full use out of every minute of class and it is good, hard and rewarding work. Many different classes to choose from. I was intimidated to come to a new place and I was welcomed and felt comfortable immediately. I am so excited to get back into training and starting my journey with Allground and being part of this team. I would recommend them to everyone.”

Google Review“AllGround has been incredible for my family and me since day one. The gym and everyone there create such a welcoming environment, and I've seen more progress here than at any other gym I've trained at. Laird and Elias are also extremely accommodating and understanding when life gets in the way and I have to step back for a while. They've always helped me get right back on track. I can't wait for my son to start training when he's old enough too!”

Google Review“I genuinely cannot recommend this gym enough. The coaches know their stuff, everyone's been incredibly welcoming, and the environment is just fun. You get a great workout, learn a ton, and occasionally get pinned by someone half your size, which is a humbling experience everyone should have at least once. If you're thinking about trying jiu-jitsu, do it here. Worst case, you get folded into a lawn chair a few times. Best case, you find a great community and accidentally get addicted like the rest of us.”

Google Review“I wish I could give 100000 stars!!! Everybody loves what they do, and they love to teach. I felt welcome from day one. I couldn't recommend this place more!!!!!!”
Isabella Lozano
Google Review“Been a new student for about 3/4 months now and let me say one thing the Owners and teachers do is welcome you with open arms. It's not a place where they just throw you in and they teach something and move on. they actually go step by step and show it again a few more times and when practicing that movement say you forget mid roll what comes next they help you on what to do, overall just a really great place filled with great people and the atmosphere is always positive. Highly recommend 10/10”

Google Review“Took my 4 year old to All Ground for Jiu Jitsu and they do a great job keeping the kids engaged and learning. After a while watching her I decided to try a class for free and have done Jiu Jitsu and been kickboxing ever since. The instructors are thorough and patient, the environment is friendly and welcoming. When I joined I was told " welcome to the family " and rolled my eyes, after months of being there I realize it really is a family I am a part of and the only rolling I do now is forward rolls. All Ground is a gift to this community and I'm happy to be a member of the family. The way they conduct business with understanding and affordability inspires me to recommend All Ground to anyone who wants to get in shape and flexible, it's definitely a life changer!”

Google Review“After being away from martial arts for 20 years, I knew I needed something new and positive in my life, and I'm so glad I found AllGround! As a woman in my 40s getting back into martial arts after such a long break, I wasn't sure what to expect, but everyone has been incredibly welcoming and supportive. The instructors do an amazing job of breaking down techniques and explaining them. The workouts are challenging and always fun, energetic, and engaging. It's also been amazing to have a strong female coach among their leadership team and such a supportive community of women. AllGround has created such a positive, encouraging, and welcoming environment, and I'm excited to continue learning, growing, and getting stronger with this amazing community!”

Google Review“This is truly an outstanding place to train! The coaches Elias, Laird and Tina are top notch. You are not going to find a better coaching crew in town. Also, they have instituted a culture that has attracted first class athletes that are also first class people. This makes the training even more enjoyable. Lastly, I highly recommend the competition class. It will change your life - for the better!”

Google Review“I can't say enough great things about All Ground Jiu Jitsu! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the instructors Elias, Laird, Tina, and the students. The environment is friendly, supportive, and focused on growth, making it a perfect place for beginners, experienced, and professional practitioners. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and take the time to break down techniques in a way that's easy to understand. They emphasize both the fundamentals and advanced techniques, ensuring that students of all levels continue to develop their skills. The classes are structured well, with a good balance of drilling, live rolling, and positional sparring, which has really helped improve my game. I've also really taken advantage of all the Private lessons they offer... Rare opportunity to get one on one training with a Combat Jiu Jitsu world champion and a Undefeated MMA Pro. Everyone is here to learn and grow together, and there's a strong sense of community. Whether you're training for self-defense, competition, or just to stay in shape, this academy provides the perfect environment to do so.”
