SEE HOW Danny Savery BJJ & Martial Arts Academy STACKS UP
Explore our comparison between jiu jitsu and traditional sports to see why jiu jitsu could be a more beneficial and fulfilling choice for your child's overall growth and development.
Traditional sports sometimes focus more on physical prowess and less on the holistic development of a child, potentially neglecting important aspects like emotional intelligence and personal character development.
Team selections and competitive play can sometimes lead to exclusion or benching of less skilled players, which can be disheartening and impact their enthusiasm for physical activity.
A strong focus on winning can overshadow the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship, and simply enjoying the game, which are vital aspects of sports for children.
In team sports, individual attention from coaches can be limited, which may hinder the personal skill development and confidence of less naturally talented children.
Jiu jitsu is a great way for kids to improve their strength, flexibility, and overall physical fitness in an enjoyable and dynamic setting.
As children master new skills and earn belts, their confidence soars. This sense of achievement helps build their self-esteem and belief in their abilities.
Regular practice of jiu jitsu requires discipline and concentration, skills that are transferable to all areas of life, including academic performance.
Children learn to respect their instructors and peers, fostering an environment of mutual respect. They also develop better listening skills, which are crucial for learning and social interactions.
CHARACTER TRAITS FOR LIFELONG SUCCESS
In a world filled with digital distractions and negative online influences, providing your child with a strong moral compass is more important than ever. At Danny Savery BJJ & Martial Arts Academy, the true benefit of Jiu Jitsu goes far beyond the mat. By mastering complex techniques, receiving mentorship from our instructors, and engaging in positive rolls with their teammates, your child will develop a toolkit of success traits that include discipline, resilience, and the quiet confidence to lead by example.
FITNESS IN DISGUISE
Let’s face it: between processed foods and the constant pull of screens, getting kids active can be a challenge. Kids and Juniors NOGI Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes are high-energy workouts disguised as a total blast! Every session is jam-packed with movement-based games and grappling drills designed to keep them moving without it ever feeling like “exercise.” While they are having fun on the mat, they are developing the strength, coordination, and healthy habits they need to grow into active, confident adults.
REAL-WORLD SKILLS FOR REAL-WORLD SAFETY
While we hope our children never have to use their training for self-defense, every parent wants the peace of mind that comes with knowing their child is safe. At Danny Savery BJJ & Martial Arts Academy, we take self-protection seriously, teaching kids how to handle everything from schoolyard bullies to uncomfortable situations with strangers. Because Jiu Jitsu is a “grappling” art, your child will learn how to neutralize a threat and stay safe without ever having to trade strikes. We prioritize the discipline needed to de-escalate a situation verbally, while providing the technical skills to protect themselves if force becomes necessary.
AN EXPERIENCE THEY'LL LOVE

Our Kids and Juniors NOGI Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes are packed with exciting activities and drills that keep kids focused on discipline while having a total blast.

Dive into the real stories! Check out genuine reviews from our martial arts family and see for yourself the difference we're making in lives every day. Don't just take our word for it!
I was really surprised and impressed entering seeing a dojo with striking training combined with Jujutsu. I wanted to broaden my daughter’s martial art training by having her work in jujutsu. The welcoming was professional and amazing. They took her in with open arms and she left there smiling and excited.
I love the classes I’ve been taking and I look forward to them every week. I’m happy I took the step to sign up.
Great classes, both Kickboxing and BJJ. Instructors are knowledgeable and involved during the classes. Friendly staff and participants, no egos, everyone is there to learn and get a good workout.
Great gym atmosphere, family and team oriented. Everyone is friendly and willing to help. I’ve been a member for over ten years and haven’t thought about leaving. They offer classes 7 days a week morning noon and nights to accommodate all types of schedules. Danny has been a great coach mentor and friend whose been a big influence on me. I highly recommend stopping in and taking an intro class to see if it’s something you would enjoy
I've been with Danny Saverys Brazilian jiu-jitsu for about three years and I couldn't have asked for a better academy to train in. I can honestly say Danny Savery is one of the best coaches in all of New England. The love he has towards teaching Brazilian jiu-jitsu is amazing to witness. If you have any questions, concerns, need advice, or just someone to talk too, Danny is the perfect person. I've learned so much from him over the years. The team at Danny Saverys BJJ are the best. All the coach's are amazing, they each have their own style of teaching and you learn so much from them. From Brazilian jiu-jitsu too kickboxing or MMA this academy has everything you need and all the right people to teach it to you. Even the little ones can come and have a blast here. Here at Danny Saverys you don't just make friends you gain a family. Everyone there looks out for one another, cares about each other, and are inspired to help one another. For me I've always been and still am very shy and insecure around people, especially in anything physical. Being a big guy I was scared that people were going to look at me differently, not want to work with me, or take advantage of me during my first weeks of classes. I couldnt have been any more wrong, I was welcomed in by everyone didn't matter the belt level, they all welcomed me in like family. This broke me out of the shell I put myself in and I became more confident in myself mentally and physically. I can still remember my first day walking into the old gym not knowing anything about Jiu-jitsu. Going behind the wall and having Danny Jr demonstrate three basic techniques. Right after that I fell in love with Brazilian jiu-jitsu and knew this was the perfect academy for me. Fast forward to today I see these new students come in on there first day and experience the same feelings I had back on my first day. If you want to find a second family and also learn some amazing skills and techniques, Danny Saverys BJJ is the most perfect fit for you.
I wanted to get on here and update my initial review. I’ve been training here for almost two years now. I’ve learned so much since first reviewing, and it’s truly been like a second home for me. I’ve made great friends, had fantastic conversations, and look forward to it every time I go. It’s absolutely worth the cost, and has given me so much more than I thought it could. I absolutely love it here. The teammates are fantastic, and the coaching is extraordinary. Even more than before, I highly recommend.
Initial Review:
I’ve only been going here for about a month now, but I absolutely love it. Everyone is so friendly, and the instructors are very knowledgeable. Even though some people are training for competitions, there’s no “I’m better than you” attitude, and everyone is helpful to the newbies. I started to simply lose weight, but I’ve already learned a lot and thoroughly enjoy my time here. They do an introductory class so you can see if it’s right for you without outright joining. They offer a range of classes that fit everyone, and you can mix it up if you like. Highly recommend

FAQs
Jiu Jitsu is often called "human chess" because it requires intense mental focus and strategic thinking. On the mat, children learn to slow down, breathe, and solve problems under pressure. These traits directly translate to the classroom, helping students improve their concentration, follow complex instructions, and maintain the self-control necessary for academic success.
Actually, the opposite is true. Because our students have a safe, high-energy outlet to "spar" and test their skills in class, they rarely feel the need to prove themselves outside of the academy. Jiu Jitsu is the "Gentle Art"—we teach our students that their skills are for protection only and that true strength lies in the discipline to walk away from a conflict.
Absolutely. Jiu Jitsu is unique because it doesn’t rely on explosive power or high kicks; it’s about leverage and body awareness. Our instructors specialize in working with children of all athletic levels. Your child will develop coordination at their own pace in a supervised environment where safety is always our first priority.
Many of our most successful students didn't "click" with sports like soccer or baseball. Jiu Jitsu is an individual journey within a supportive team setting. There are no "benchwarmers" here—every child is on the mat, active, and progressing at their own speed. Most kids find the grappling games and "ninja-like" movements so fun they don't even realize they're getting a world-class workout.
Yes. Jiu Jitsu requires a high level of emotional regulation. To be successful on the mat, students must learn to manage their energy and stay calm while problem-solving. Through our structured classes, children learn that being "the master of their emotions" is the key to earning new stripes and moving up in rank.
Jiu Jitsu is a powerful confidence builder because the progress is tangible. When a child finally masters a technique they once found difficult, they experience a genuine sense of achievement. Each small victory on the mat reinforces the idea that hard work and persistence pay off, giving them the "Yes I Can" mindset to tackle any goal in life.
