Martial Arts for Kids in Arvada

Easton Arvada runs two kids programs, and between them they take children from four through thirteen. Parents arrive here for all sorts of reasons — a child who needs an outlet, a child who is being pushed around at school, a child who has tried three sports and stuck with none — and the room is built to take all of them. You do not need to know anything about martial arts to start, and neither does your child.

Arvada's kids program is led by Kyle Wright, who runs the academy — a black belt under Eliot Marshall with close to twenty unbroken years of jiu jitsu and wrestling behind him. What he teaches is control: how to take someone down and stay in charge of the position, which is the part of jiu jitsu that works when you are the smaller one in the room. James Clement coaches with him, a Marine veteran who came to the sport through his brother and now trains here alongside his own family.

Age Groups

Which Age Group Is My Child?

Kids train with kids their own age and stage. A coach places your child on their first day — you do not have to work it out in advance.

Ages 4–6

Little Tigers

Where a four-year-old starts. Foundational movement, coordination, and a class shaped around a short attention span — structure they can actually hold, and enough play that they want to come back. This band is Jiu Jitsu; striking starts at seven.

Ages 7–13

Tigers

Real technique and real progression, and from seven both programs at Easton Arvada are open. Kids at this age can train Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, or both — they are on the same mats, with the same coaches and the same expectations.

Your First Class

The Day You Walk In

The three things parents actually ask at Easton Arvada before they book.

01

What drop-off actually looks like

Come a few minutes early. Somebody has your child's name before you arrive — a coach meets them at the edge of the mat, walks them on, and introduces them to the students they will be working with. A loaner Gi or loaner gloves are already at the desk, so there is nothing to buy first.

02

Can I stay and watch?

Yes, and on a first day we would rather you did. You are welcome at the edge of the mat for the whole class. You are also not expected to stay — plenty of parents drop off, and plenty stay every week for years.

03

What if my child is shy?

Most first-timers are. The opening minutes go on your child rather than on the curriculum, and they are paired with a student who already knows that looking after your partner is the job. Nobody spars on day one, and nobody is made to do anything they are not ready for.

This is a fantastic facility with staff that’s friendly and coaches who are patient and knowledgeable. I love the mat chats they do with the kids. It totally reiterates what we are teaching at home. I love seeing the excitement and discipline that’s grown in my 9-year-old son as he continually practices. His inner warrior is being refined and challenged and it’s so cool to watch! Thanks Easton!

Man we love Easton. My daughter Ru trains tiger Muay Thai and Brazilian Jujitsu. She looks forward to classes every week. My sons Booker and Des are learning respect and discipline and have some wonderful examples of good humans to model after. Professor Jeff is gracious and knowledgeable. Coaches Alex, Caroline, J, Shane, etc... These guys are the best. My family trains together with the kids on Saturdays.
