I wanted to give you all a heads up about our community pricing.: Right now, you're locked in at $27/month, and here's the great news: **this price will remain for all current members until we reach 100 members.** Once we hit that 100-member milestone, the price for NEW members will increase to $97/month. But don't worry - if you're already in, you keep your $27/month rate. This is my way of rewarding our founding members who are helping us build something special from the ground up. You believed in this community early, and I want to make sure you benefit from that. So if you know anyone who's been thinking about joining, now is the time to let them know. Once we hit 100 members, they'll be paying almost double. Thanks for being part of The Children BJJ Blueprint family. Let's keep growing and getting better together! Oss! Joao

I’m Joao Crus, and I’ve been teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to kids for over 25 years. What I discovered along the way changed everything. BJJ isn’t just a martial art. It’s one of the most powerful tools we have to help children develop emotional regulation, set healthy boundaries, and build real confidence. This community exists because I believe instructors like you deserve more than technique videos and belt checklists. You deserve a complete approach, one that helps your students grow on and off the mat. Here’s what you’ll find here: Free resources to help you build better classes, communicate with parents, and understand the emotional side of what we do. And for those who want to go deeper, premium content including my full Boundary Guard curriculum, complete syllabus guides, and direct access to me through monthly live calls. Whether you’re a brand new kids instructor or a seasoned black belt looking to refine your approach, you belong here. Start by introducing yourself below, tell us where you teach, how long you’ve been working with kids, and one challenge you’re facing right now. I read every post. Let’s build something great together. Joao Crus Black Belt | Author of Grapple with Emotions | Host of Blackbelt Parenting Life| Creator fd the Kids BJJ Curriculum Course
