#94 - Ellee Beckman - Teach Your Kids Jiu Jitsu with this Fun, Evidence-Based Approach

from The Grapplers Perspective · host Paul Johnson & Danny Allen

We sat down with Ellee, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach and experienced early-years teacher, to map a practical path from chaotic energy to confident, skilled movement. Her approach centres on play-based, constraint-led games that quietly encode core concepts—pass the legs, hold them down, take the back—long before children can memorise steps.• using games to teach core concepts• class length, ratios and safety rules• age bands and intelligent pairing• storytelling that maps to skills• submissions taught with control first• boundaries for school and home• scaling constraints for mixed ability• helping teens manage ego and loss• blending CLA with concise coaching• parent communication and retention“Find 10 fairy-tale games and weekly coaching support at The Art of Coaching — link in Ellee’s Instagram stand store”Guest Stuff:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thearteofcoaching/Support the showGET OUR FREE EMAILS - https://pjfitnesscoaching.aweb.page/GrapplersPerspective Co-Hosts: Paul Johnson (Glasses) and Danny Allen (Beard)Insta - https://www.instagram.com/bodyforbjj and https://www.instagram.com/rollingstrongbjj Audio & Video Edited, and Produced by Paul Johnson Looking to find, organise or manage seminars?
