About Talos Juniors

Welcome to Talos Juniors at Talos Grappling! Our exciting programme is designed for children aged 6–10 in Belfast, Lisburn and Dunmurry.


At this stage, classes become a little more structured than our Tots programmed while keeping the fun at the heart of every session.


Through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, your child will learn real techniques, improve their coordination and develop confidence in a safe, supportive environment.


Our coaches focus on building strong fundamentals, teaching children how to use balance, movement, and technique rather than strength.


As they progress, they'll develop discipline, resilience, problem-solving skills, and the confidence to tackle challenges both on and off the mats.

FAQs

  • Do you need any experience to start training?

    No, our classes are designed for all experience levels. Most of our students starts with no prior experience. Your child will be taught exercises and techniques appropriate for their skill level.

  • Is my child ready to start classes?

    To help ensure every child has a positive and enjoyable experience in class, we ask that they are able to:

    • Attend the full class without a parent or guardian present.
    • Communicate their needs clearly to the coach.
    • Ask and answer simple questions, and follow basic instructions.
  • What ages does this programme cover?

    The programme is open to young people aged 6 - 10.

  • Does a parent of guardian need to be present for the classes?

    On the first class, a parent or legal guardian needs to be present to sign a waiver form (if not completed already).


    The Talos Juniors course is designed to help young people develop independence, which is a key lesson to learn in martial arts (self-defence). As such, parents do not need to supervise classes.

    Classes are on Saturdays from 9.30am - 10.15am
