We are delivering a specifically designed and constructed “martial arts system for kids and teens” program combining Brazilian Jiu Jitsu ( BJJ ), Submission Arts Wrestling ( SAW ), Luta Livre Esportiva ( known as Brazilian Submission Wrestling ), Catch Wrestling and Judo into a Grappling System know as SCW ( Submission Catch Wrestling ) to children from 7 years old to 15 years old at our 6 Day A Week, Wyndham Vale training academy ( Ground Floor – Rear of Building / 510 Ballan Rd. Wyndham Vale ), we are delivering these martial arts classes to kids and teens coming from Werribee, Hoppers Crossing, Point Cook, Wyndham Vale, Tarneit and surrounding areas even as far as Bacchus Marsh.
Submission Catch Wrestling evolves around its core technical principles but it’s grounded on the following philosophical precepts:
All submission holds are allowed
Wrestling is the base:
SCW is built on a submission aware wrestling platform where developing the necessary skills to take matters to the ground and keep them there, avoid going to the ground, and getting back to the standing position are considered fundamental rather than complementary.
The ultimate goal in SCW is the submission, which can be obtained from any hold, regardless of the position or absence of it, (Standing up or on the ground, from the top or from the bottom) however while on the ground, top positions are favored in the same way getting pinned is avoided, as long as this doesn’t make one vulnerable to a submission.
Bottom positions are only deliberately assumed as means of immediate defense or attacks, or when working in situational combat, one of the pillars of skill development in Submission Catch Wrestling, where practitioners assume bottom positions to become proficient in working defensively and offensively from them but always trying to get back to their feet if possible.
Since getting pinned is avoided, guard systems that facilitate the use of wrestling techniques are preferred, (ie. arm drags, single, low single, double leg takedowns and generally getting your center on gravity under your opponent’s center of gravity), which basically means shooting for takedowns from the bottom.
This results in both standing and ground wrestling flowing seamlessly as one by sharing the same technical principles and goals.
Technical soundness through perfecting the basics
Conditioning is essential
Metal fortitude is essential
The martial aspect is essential

Being a father of 5 kids and young adults I truly understand how hard it is to raise children in today’s demanding and fast changing world not to mention the ever increasing safety risk todays kids face.
The concerns parents have for their kids are both serious and worrying including about being bullied by other kids at school, bullied by kids outside of school, bullied online through social media, peer pressure to try drugs, to get involved with alcohol, not to mention with ever present concern regarding sexual predators and so many other potential risks our children may be exposed to at any time.
Our children today have to deal with challenges that we did not have to growing up and these challenges can be simply overwhelming to many of our children. Unfortunately for us as parents, it is almost impossible to completely shield our children from these ever-present negative influences. But, there is something you can do as a parent…. help your children better deal with the many challenges they face growing up and to give you some support we have a way to help you… help them and that is through kids martial arts.

OUR SCW AND JIU JITSU GRADING SYSTEM
5 CRITICAL REASONS YOUR CHILD NEEDS MARTIAL ARTS IN THEIR LIFE TODAY
- Martial Arts and Self Defence Training Builds Confidence: By learning how to protect themselves, your children will develop confidence in their ability to handle life’s challenges. In turn, their improved confidence will give them the courage to say “no” to the many negative influences pushed on them through their school and in their social lives.
- Martial Arts and Self Defence Training Increases Focus: We will help your child increase their focus by giving them clear goals and showing them how to reach those goals through hard work and being consistent by finishing what they start. (Of course, the kids won’t realize they’re learning focus because our classes are so much fun! But keep that to yourself)
- Martial Arts and Self Defence Training Develops Self-Control: Kids learn self-control in the martial arts by learning how important it is to have respect, both for themselves and for others. Martial arts training teaches that in order to get respect, you first have to give it. Once your child learns this important lesson, their self-control will naturally increase.
- Martial Arts and Self Defence Training Instills Discipline: Discipline is “doing what you must do, when you have to do it, whether you feel like it or not.” Discipline is desperately needed in all areas of life at all ages, from primary school to university students to adults like us. The structured and demanding exercises of the Kaizen Kids martial arts training will give your child a vehicle to develop this crucial life skill.
- Martial Arts and Self Defence Training Cultivates Courage: Life can be difficult, and is quite a struggle at times and I am sure like me you could testify to that fact. The person who is used to overcoming obstacles and has acquired the habit of facing challenges and beating them is the one who is more likely to succeed in sport and life. This is why it is so important to develop that habit of courage early on – so that later in life a person will more easily face those difficulties with a positive outlook and a self assurance that they can indeed be overcome. Our Kaizen Kids martial arts kids program provides young children with an excellent and safe opportunity to safely learn how to face those fears and blast right through them.
As we hope you can start to you see, the Kaizen Kids martial arts programs teaches so much more than “just learning how to defend yourself against bullies”. It is about creating a platform for life success, a positive force that helps guide our children’s future to a better place
Oh!!!! Did we mention that the kids love “Martial Arts and Self Defence For Kids” because it is so much fun? You can work hard and still make it enjoyable!
Positive Role Models Who Will Encourage Your Child to Succeed
We are not putting ourselves on any pedestal but instead making an observation that kids need strong role models who set a positive example for them to follow. Yet, many parents today find that kids can’t look up to professional athletes anymore – so where can they turn for positive examples to follow?
Experience has shown us that kids respond to our martial art teachers in way that no other coach or instructor can match. Because we realize how much our students look up to us, we work hard to set a positive example for them by living the martial arts principles of leadership, integrity, courage, kindness and self-control. As you know, children are hard-wired to seek attention and approval. So, when kids see positive behaviors demonstrated by our instructors, they are strongly driven to display those same behaviors in their own actions.
