KIDS PROGRAMS

10th Planet Daly City offers no gi jiu jitsu, muay thai, and combat jiu-jitsu lessons for children ages 5 and up.

​

At 10PDC, our main goal for our kids program is to instill core values such as respect, focus, confidence, and discipline in the youth through the martial arts lifestyle. We hope to inspire kids to to become positive members of society when they grow up, internalizing the values they learn in class and applying them into their everyday lives. Kids can train solely as a fun hobby, or go into competition and represent the 10th Planet Daly City Team. No child is required to compete or spar and all kids and parents are welcomed to watch a class before deciding to join.
