Welcome to Team Rhino’s New Homeschool Jiu-Jitsu Classes! 

Why Parents Choose Us!

✅ Confidence That Lasts
Your child will develop inner strength by learning techniques that work in real-life situations.

✅ Discipline & Focus
Engaging classes helps kids build focus for success in school, at home, and beyond.

✅ Respect & Resilience
We teach kids to respect themselves and others while developing the resilience to face challenges head-on.

✅ Self-Defense Techniques
Authentic Helio Gracie techniques empower kids to defend themselves against larger, stronger opponents.

Why Team Rhino Stands Out

✅ 32 Years of Experience
We've been serving the community for over three decades, refining our programs for exceptional results.

✅ Structured, Age-Specific Curriculum

Tween Program | 12 -14 Year Olds 

At Team Rhino's Tween Program, students ages 12–14 will learn real self-defense and how to defend themselves when a confrontation gets to the ground. It builds confidence, discipline, and growth, both on and off the mat.

Our Tween program bridges the gap between youth classes and adult training. Students learn foundational techniques and will be ready to move into our Adult program at age 15.

Since this is a new program, the class sizes are 2-4 kids!

Classes meet Mondays & Thursdays at 6:15 pm and Wednesdays at 6:15 PM (combo class with the adults)
