FROM JOE LAUZON
Welcome! I’m Joe Lauzon, Owner and Head Instructor at Lauzon Mixed Martial Arts.
As someone who’s spent years training kids in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, I can tell you there’s nothing more rewarding than watching them grow—not just in their grappling skills, but in who they are as people.
Sure, they’re learning how to master submissions, escapes, and earn that next belt, but what really matters are the life skills they’re picking up along the way.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is about much more than just techniques on the mat. It’s about building confidence, discipline, character, focus, and respect. Every class is a step forward in their journey of personal growth.
With each session, you’ll see your child develop not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too. Jiu-Jitsu offers instant feedback—when they focus on the core moves, they naturally build discipline and respect. They’ll feel the difference, and that’s what helps them grow into confident, self-aware, and respectful individuals.
Plus, let’s not forget—it’s a blast!
Teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to kids in our community is something I’m truly passionate about, and I’m confident your kids are going to love it just as much as I do.
Take a look below to see how our fun and engaging Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes can benefit your child.
Thanks for considering us!
These Common Challenges?
Struggling with listening and following directions?
Bright, but finding it hard to focus at home or school?
Shy and lacking the confidence to reach their full potential?
Raising Confident, Disciplined Kids Doesn't Have to Be a Struggle
Discover a safe, natural, and highly effective way to positively impact every aspect of your child’s life—without medicine or harsh discipline. Our martial arts classes teach self-discipline, confidence, respect, and humility, all while promoting health and fitness.
Sounds like a wonder cure doesn’t it?
But there really is something that does all that. And that’s the power of martial arts classes.
Stronger and More Confident with Every Class
Children absorb new skills quickly. Many parents notice positive changes after just one martial arts class. With each session, your child will grow in knowledge, confidence, and discipline.
Not only are they getting healthier as they learn martial arts, they’re also learning the value of self-discipline and respect. When you enroll your child in a martial arts class, you’re giving them much more than the physical skills we teach. You’re giving them the opportunity to thrive.
Building Lifelong Character and Success
Your kids’ everyday friends aren’t the main concern anymore when it comes to character development. Now you have to worry about all the negative and harmful influences that the internet can introduce into your children’s lives.
Our classes instill character and success traits that will last a lifetime.
Through learning the skills and techniques of martial arts, to the guidance and inspiration of our instructors and the positive social interaction with their fellow classmates, your kids will develop a whole list of skills.
Fitness That Feels Like Fun
In today’s world, many kids don’t get enough exercise due to unhealthy diets and too much screen time.
Our martial arts classes offer full-body workouts disguised as fun! With activities, games, and drills, your child will stay active without even realizing they’re exercising.
Of course it’s important for your kids to exercise and wear themselves out – they stay healthy, sleep well, and develop their minds and bodies. But just as important, our classes will help develop at a young age the physical habits they need to grow into healthy adults.
Empower Your Child with Self-Defense Skills
We hope our kids never have to use these skills, but it’s essential they know how to stay safe.
Our martial arts training focuses on equipping your child with essential self-protection skills for any situation, from bullies to strangers.
But knowing how to defend oneself is only half the battle. Our classes teach your child the respect and self-discipline needed to diffuse a situation without violence whenever possible – as well as the knowledge to know when force is the only way to safety.
Fun-Packed Martial Arts Classes Your Kids Will Love!
We understand that kids need to have fun, and our classes are designed with that in mind!
While school might not always be fun, we guarantee that your child will love every minute of our martial arts classes.
It really is a challenge to design a class that keeps children focused on learning, respect, and discipline while still having fun… but our classes are created just for that. They are so full of ideas, activities, and games that your kids will never get bored or stagnate.
It’s also a fantastic and healthy environment for them (and you) to make friends with other like-minded students. It really is a place where laughter, cheer and happiness abound.

No. Our coaches work with children of all abilities, and your child learns at a pace that is comfortable for them.
No. Martial arts started as self-defense, and we teach children that fighting is not how you solve problems. Confidence is the goal, not aggression.
