Baby Champions
Your child's first steps on the mat, together with you.
- Coordination & Balance
- Confidence
- Family Bonding
A parent-and-child class for little ones in the first stages of life. Side by side on the mat, parents and babies move, play, and learn together, building coordination, balance, body awareness, and confidence through playful jiu-jitsu movement.
More than a class, it's bonding time for the whole family. Baby Champions grows with your child until they're ready to train on their own in Tiny Champions.
Families that train together grow together. At Gracie Barra, the next generation starts here.
