Most frequent asked questions and answers

The great thing about our program is that the earlier you get started, the better your long-term results!

We have children in our programs that started as early as 3- or 4- years old, but since children develop at different rates, the best (and really, ONLY) way to see if your child is ready for our program is to take advantage of one of our WEB SPECIALS and try it for yourself!
 

No. In fact, quite the opposite!

Children are exposed to HUGE amounts of simulated and real violence on video games, television, movies, the internet and other media outlets.

But in our unique program, we teach students real, practical, effective violent conflict resolution techniques and tactics that can defuse the situation before it escalates to violence. We also teach escape techniques and tactics that even “smaller” people can use to move to safety if approached by a potentially dangerous situation.

Should your child be confronted with an aggressive situation that can’t be resolved peacefully or escaped from, he or she will also then possess the basic martial arts skills to defend themselves.

There are so many!

Martial arts students benefit from increased physical fitness and mental focus.

The focus on self-discipline, respect, self-confidence, and perseverance in the face of setbacks builds character in students young and old. Our students also join a community of people who share an interest in martial arts, improving their own way of life, and making a positive contribution in the community.

We know how busy your life is as a parent, so our program is designed so that students can make exciting progress by attending classes an average of twice a week.

Some students will want to attend more classes, and that’s great- we have options for that!

Really, the only way to know if our program is a good fit for you and your family is to try it for yourself!

We have some GREAT WEB SPECIALS, so you can try the program with no strings attached, and see for yourself how the program will benefit you or your child.

One of the best parts of our program is that every student is treated as an individual and will progress at their own rate.

Each student’s progress isn’t measured against other students, but rather against their own previous performance!

So, even students that aren’t as physically fit as the star quarterback of the football team can have a wonderful experience in our program, and become stronger, fitter, and more flexible.

SPI BJJ & FITNESS STUDIOS REVIEWS

  • Joseph and the team are super welcoming to all new comers. He and his students with higher ranked belts are always willing to teach new people what they have learned already. I felt right at home on my first day. Now I don’t ever want to stop coming. Looking forward to a bright future with these guys!!

    I have never trained here personally, but I have had the honor of being a guest speaker at one of Mr. Cantu's classes. I have also been invited to help out at a BJJ event that was held in Port Isabel. Mr. Cantu and SPI BJJ have been great assets to the City of Port Isabel. They have done so much for our community by getting kids and adults involved in fun physical activity. Mr. Cantu is always available to help you out in any way he can. They have classes for all ages, so go by and visit them whenever you get a chance.

  • Seriously, this is the best exercise class I’ve had in years! One of the highlights for me is that I know I can look forward to learning a new exercise or move with every class. After our sessions, I can literally feel the rush of endorphins! Through Joseph’s kickboxing classes, I have come to respect the previously untapped power and use of my legs and arms. Additionally, I must add that I really enjoy all the ladies in my class! Everyone is just so friendly and supportive! I think Joseph’s chill, funny yet professional personality brings out the best in us all.
