TopBJJ Kids: For the champions of tomorrow
Are you an ambitious BJJ athlete (8-15 years old) and looking for extra challenge to become even better? Under Bolinha we offer special training sessions. Our program offers exactly that extra challenge, technical depth, and varied sparring you are looking for. By training together with other talents from the sport, you will raise your BJJ to a higher level.
Why this program?
-
Even the most dedicated BJJ talents sometimes lack sufficient challenge. Your regular training partners don't always offer the necessary challenge or variation for you to continue developing adequately. By training with other athletes with the same drive and extensive competition experience – nationally and internationally – we collectively raise the level of BJJ within the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany.
-
This program brings driven children from multiple academies together for that extra challenge and motivation. By offering intensive training sessions under the guidance of top coaches, we strengthen the enjoyment of the sport and create the challenge and variation needed to elevate the level within these countries.
More than a program: it is a network
TopBJJ Kids serves as a platform: it consists of a network of committed BJJ schools, top coaches and locations. By making use of each other's expertise and training at different locations, the training sessions remain challenging and inspiring.
Costs (pilot phase)
To keep participation accessible, we ask for a small, cost-covering contribution per training session. Fun, progress, and results come first.
What can you expect?
-
Break your routine with diversity
You train with talented youth BJJ athletes (8-15 yrs) from more than 17+ gyms. That means different styles, different tempos, and new tactics every session – exactly the variety that accelerates your progress.
-
High level, clear goals
Our group works purposefully towards local tournaments such as those of BJJFNL, FBJJB, DBJJO and international events such as IBJJF and ADCC. Some participants already have international experience, others are well on their way. The technical level is high and the ambition is clear: to become better together.
-
Grow in a safe, positive setting
Respect comes first: a tap = a learning moment, not a loss. Coaches ensure structure and safety, so you can develop to the fullest in a positive atmosphere.
-
Pilot phase: by invitation only
Interested? Training is by invitation only. You can register (without further obligation) to express your interest. We are working hard to create a schedule. As soon as the calendar is published, you will receive a message and can confirm your participation per session.
How does it work? Sign up & participate in the initial phase
We started as a pilot and are working hard on an ambitious program. Because we want to offer top quality and learn optimally from these first sessions, the number of spots is limited.
Interested? You can pre-register using the form. We’ll ask for your details and review your BJJ experience and activity to ensure a good balance within the group. Years of experience or a shelf full of medals are definitely not required. We’re looking for talent that actively competes, wants to grow, is open to feedback, and contributes to a safe, respectful, and friendly environment.
Become a partner? Trainers & Locations wanted for BJJ talent development

Our program already unites 30+ talents from 17+ gyms for intensive top-level training. For this to succeed, we are looking for top partners:
