Join Tupelo’s exclusive martial arts team, where young athletes train to compete—and succeed!

Building Champions On And Off The Mat

At Tupelo Jiu Jitsu Kids, we’re more than just a martial arts school. We’re a team, a community, and a training ground for future champions.

Our program is uniquely designed to develop not only athletic skill but also character, resilience, and confidence.

Limited Spots for Maximum Impact:

Only 45 Students Accepted Into Our Program

At Tupelo Jiu Jitsu Academy, we limit our class size to 45 students to ensure focused, quality training and a true team atmosphere. Spots are limited—reach out to see if we have an opening available!

Focused Training

With a smaller class size, each student gets the individual attention they need to master skills and progress confidently. Our coaches work closely with every child to ensure steady improvement and growth.

Exclusive Opportunity

Our selective process ensures each child is fully committed and invested in their training journey. Tryouts are every Monday at 5 PM—reach out today to see if there’s an opening!

Team Building

At Tupelo Jiu Jitsu Kids, we’re not just a class; we’re a team. A limited number of dedicated students creates a close-knit environment where friendships are formed, and everyone pushes each other to excel.

LET'S GO!

Is Your Child Ready to Be Part of Something Bigger?

Many kids today are looking for a place to belong, to be challenged, and to grow. At Tupelo Jiu Jitsu Kids, we aren’t just teaching martial arts; we’re training athletes who compete, grow, and learn what it takes to win in life.

WHERE PASSION MEETS COMPETITION

Our Programs

Each program focuses on different aspects of martial arts, allowing students to find their strengths, challenge themselves, and grow in a supportive, team-oriented environment.

Whether they’re new to martial arts or looking to compete, there’s a place for every young athlete here.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the foundation of our training. This grappling-focused martial art teaches students how to control and subdue opponents using leverage and technique rather than brute strength. Perfect for all body types and skill levels, BJJ builds confidence, discipline, and resilience—skills that extend far beyond the mat.

MMA

(Mixed Martial Arts)

Our MMA program combines techniques from various martial arts, including boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This well-rounded training teaches students striking, grappling, and real-world self-defense techniques. MMA is an excellent choice for students who want a complete martial arts experience and the opportunity to compete at higher levels.

Submission Wrestling

Submission Wrestling focuses on grappling without the traditional gi, relying on control, strategy, and technical precision. This program is designed for those who want to refine their skills and prepare for no-gi tournaments. It’s an ideal complement to our BJJ training, challenging students to adapt and evolve their techniques.

Our tryouts aren’t just about physical skills; we’re looking for kids with a positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and the enthusiasm to be part of something special.

If your child doesn’t make the team on their first try, don’t worry—we believe in second chances. We’ll provide feedback on areas they can work on and invite them to try out again in the future.
