RANKING @ G.I.R.L.S. GYM
We support youth development through Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing by recognizing their achievements with a structured ranking system.
In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, we award belts following the IBJJF color progression, highlighting our members growth and dedication.
Youth receive 4 stripes on each belt before progressing to the next one.
In Kickboxing, we use wristbands to mark their progress and commitment.
These recognition tools foster confidence and discipline, empowering our youth both on and off the mat.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (Adults)
Minimum Age Requirement: 16
We recognize every step of our members’ Jiu Jitsu journey.
Before our members progress to the colored belts of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, they earn the Green ‘Warriors Path Belt’.
This belt serves as an introduction to the world of Jiu Jitsu, paving the way for future growth and development.
This belt is equivalent to a 3 stripe white belt.
Once our members reach Blue Belt, they have officially entered the colored belt system of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
We encourage our adult members to be self motivated, which is why we do not stripe their belts.

Our Kickboxing program blends Muay Thai Kickboxing with influences from Western Boxing, Jeet Kune Do, Kenpo, and Savate. In our Kickboxing classes, you will not only learn how to execute strikes but also develop defensive skills and strategy. Members receive promotions based on benchmarks, ensuring their progress is recognized as they advance in training.
We offer an additional recognition for adults who achieve the same belt and level color in both Kickboxing and Jiu Jitsu with a special T-shirt in that color. This shirt represents the commitment to becoming a well-rounded martial artist.
