Teens Martial Arts class at Renzo Gracie Los Angeles in Hollywood
2Teen classes, Tue & Thu

01 Ages 13–17

Somewhere the phone
goes in the bag.

Teenagers are handed a lot of noise and not much that demands anything of them. A Muay Thai round demands everything, right now, and gives back something no app can — the knowledge that they did a hard thing and did not quit.

Teens BJJ runs Tuesday and Thursday at 4:45pm, and Teens Muay Thai follows at 5:45pm — so a teenager can grapple, strike, or stay for both.

02 What you get

What this program
actually does.

One

Respect, in both directions

They learn to respect themselves and the people they train with. Nobody here is impressed by attitude, and everybody notices effort.

Two

Decision-making under pressure

Sparring is a series of decisions with immediate consequences. That is the most honest feedback loop a teenager can get.

Three

Somewhere to put the frustration

An hour of pad work does more for a bad week than anything they will find on a screen.

Four

Confidence they actually earned

Praise from a parent bounces off. Getting through a hard round in front of the room does not.

03 Timetable

Teens on the schedule

Fifty-three classes run every week across the whole academy. These are the ones that matter for this program — the full grid, with a live “on the mats now” marker, is on the schedule page.

    04 Questions

    The things people
    ask first.

    My teenager doesn't want to come. What then?

    Bring them once. Almost every teenager here started that way. One class with people who take them seriously usually does more than a month of persuading.

    Can teens train in the adult classes?

    Often, yes. Depending on age, size and maturity, the coaches will invite teens into adult jiu jitsu or Muay Thai classes. Speak to us and we'll put them in the right room.

    Is it just striking?

    No. Teens BJJ runs Tuesday and Thursday at 4:45pm, right before Teens Muay Thai at 5:45pm, and most teens end up doing both.

    Do they need their own gloves?

    Not for the first class. We'll lend you gloves and shin guards while you work out whether it's for them.

    Ages 13–17 · free first class

    Give them somewhere
    to put all of it.

    One free class, no contract. If it sticks you will know inside a week — and so will they. Most parents tell us the change shows up at home first.
