Benefits of Phoenix Kids Combatives Training
Phoenix Kids Combatives is one of the few programs in Bacchus Marsh built entirely around keeping kids safe, not just making them fighters. Designed for parents who want their child prepared, aware and confident without learning to be aggressive.
- Your child will know what to do before a situation becomes dangerous, not just during it
- They'll be harder to bully. Awareness and confidence are the two biggest deterrents.
- They'll learn to use their voice before their hands. De-escalation is the first tool we teach.
- You'll feel better dropping them at school knowing they have real skills, not just hope
- They'll develop a quiet confidence that shows up in how they carry themselves every day
What Others Are Saying About Phoenix Training Centre

More Than a Gym! A Family That Grows Together Through Jiu-Jitsu!
"My son and I started training at Phoenix five years ago, and Jiu-Jitsu quickly became a huge part of our lives. Today, our whole family trains, and I now coach the kids' classes. Watching children grow in confidence, discipline, and self-belief through Jiu-Jitsu is truly rewarding. Phoenix isn't just a gym, it's a family. I highly recommend it to anyone, young or old, looking to better themselves."

Frequently Asked Questions
What age can my child start?
We welcome kids across a range of ages. Contact us to discuss the best starting point based on your child's confidence, maturity and individual needs.
How often should we attend?
Two to three times per week for steady progress. Consistent attendance makes a real difference with self-protection skills.
Is this competitive?
Phoenix Kids Combatives is non-competitive. The focus is on safety, awareness, confidence and personal development.
Are there any safety concerns?
Safety is our top priority. Phoenix Kids Combatives is non-aggressive and age-appropriate. Training is carefully supervised and all safety guidelines are strictly followed.
Can we try a class before committing?
Yes. That's exactly what the free trial is for. No pressure, no commitment. Come in and see how your child responds.
How much does it cost?
We have various programs depending on what your child is hoping to get out of training. It's almost impossible to recommend the right one before we've met your child and before they've experienced a class. That's why we recommend starting with the free trial. No pressure, no obligation if it's not the right fit for both of us.
