#94 - Ellee Beckman - Teach Your Kids Jiu Jitsu with this Fun, Evidence-Based Approach

What if kids learned jiu-jitsu the way kids actually learn best? We sat down with Ellee, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach and experienced early-years teacher, to map a practical path from chaotic energy to confident, skilled movement. Her approach centres on play-based, constraint-led games that quietly encode core concepts—pass the legs, hold them down, take the back—long before children can memorise steps. • using games to teach core concepts • class length, ratios and safety rules • age bands and intelligent pairing • storytelling that maps to skills • submissions taught with control first • boundaries for school and home • scaling constraints for mixed ability • helping teens manage ego and loss • blending CLA with concise coaching • parent communication and retention “Find 10 fairy-tale games and weekly coaching support at The Art of Coaching — link in Ellee’s Instagram stand store” Guest Stuff: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thearteofcoaching/ Support the show GET OUR FREE EMAILS - https://pjfitnesscoaching.aweb.page/GrapplersPerspective Co-Hosts: Paul Johnson (Glasses) and Danny Allen (Beard) Insta - https://www.instagram.com/bodyforbjj and https://www.instagram.com/rollingstrongbjj Audio & Video Edited, and Produced by Paul Johnson Looking to find, organise or manage seminars?
