"Every day in the United States, an estimated 150,000 kids miss school due to fear or intimidation of bullies. In fact, many believe that fear of bullying may be the leading cause of low self-confidence in children. Worse, statistics suggest that less than 15% of kids actually report acts of bullying. We know that most bullies are insecure and seek self-esteem normally by harassing smaller or weaker children. These negative experiences often create psychological trauma that might last a lifetime. These experiences lead desperate parents to search for Self Defense and come across schools like ours that teach jiu jitsu exclusively for self defense.

The VB method Youth Program focuses on the physical, emotional, and mental well-being, as well as the education of our children. It is “Education for Life.” Firstly, we provide our young students with the most powerful defensive skills so they will be prepared to confidently stand up against bullies.

In addition, through the 753 code we assist our students with the development of characteristics and skills they will need in order to live a happy and balanced life. Our young pupils develop discipline, respect, courage, athleticism, and patience among other important values. We promote nonviolent resolutions to conflict.

The Valente Brothers Youth Program focuses a great deal of attention on the development of self-esteem. A good self-image is the basis of a well-functioning, happy, and successful child. This is self defense at its most fundamental.

Our curriculum integrates physical education and self-defense techniques with conditioning and skill-oriented games aimed at improving your child’s coordination, motor skills, agility, and flexibility. Every instructor receives training in our unique teaching methodology, enabling them to deliver learning through dynamic interaction with the children, using a variety of approaches that meet the various learning types of individual children, whether visual, kinesthetic, or auditory.
