MINI AND JUNIOR GRAPPLERS

PARENT ONBOARDING

GUIDE

Welcome — we’re excited to have your child join us for 12 weeks and beyond of confidence-building, movement, discipline, and fun.

This onboarding page has been created to make your experience as smooth as possible.

Inside, you’ll find everything you need to know before your child steps onto the mats: class times, what to bring, how to use the MAAT app, who the coaches are, behaviour expectations, FAQs, and more.

Our Mission:


To help every child grow in confidence, resilience, and self-belief through jiu jitsu — and to support parents with clarity, care, and community every step of the way.

We know starting something new can feel exciting for some children and a little nerve-wracking for others. That’s completely normal. Rest assured, our coaches are experienced at meeting kids where they are and helping them grow at their own pace, without pressure.

If you stay connected through the WhatsApp group and keep this onboarding guide handy, you’ll have everything you need now and throughout the programme as and when things may be updated. And remember, if you ever have a question, we’re only a message away.

Let’s get your child ready for an amazing start on the mats at Haslemere Jiu-Jitsu.

THE FIRST CLASS

Tuesday 6th January from 4:30pm–5:30pm.

Put this date and time in your diary. This introduction class will be for ALL ages. A chance for everyone, including parents, to come together, meet the coaches and get a feel for the mats. It’ll be a fun-filled, warm welcome to the academy.

If you cannot make this time, don’t worry — but we’d love to see everyone there.

STANDARD CLASS TIMES

All class times can be found here, on the Haslemere Jiu-Jitsu website, or through the MAAT app.

To make things easy, we recommend getting familiar with the MAAT app and using it to book all classes ahead of time. This not only helps with commitment and routine, but it also guarantees a spot at the class when the mats get busy. Try not to worry if you suddenly need to cancel the booking, it's super easy to do.

Please ensure you book your child onto the correct class for their age group.
