Teens classes (12 – 15yrs) provides formal instruction to mature primary and secondary school students.
The syllabus is typically 10 weeks in length aligning with Victorian school terms. Students within this group that display maturity and considered ‘advanced’ may be invited to join the adults class (this enables the teens to train over school holidays as the Academy does not train Juniors and Teens during this period). Teens classes cover basic to intermediate skills required to progress through the sport and also offer the opportunity to compete. The lessons are developed in such a way that the teens learn controlled aggression and humility, and also prepares them mentally for situations of conflict.
Although a contact sport, it is not a sport based around striking but more about control. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu provides a safe environment, which also challenges your child mentally and physically, shaping them to into responsible individuals both on and off the mat. Teens involved in this program learn how to react under pressure through techniques taught. This doesn't just stop in the Academy but extends to their life in general. 
The whole time I was there, the training was tops and the environment is very friendly, excellent place for people wanting to get into jiu jitsu. I 100% recommend this place to anyone.

Teen Code Of Conduct
We know that joining a new group can be hard, especially if the group has been training with each other for some time. We also know that the ages of 12 to 15 can be very challenging for the teen as well as the parents/guardians. Every teen that joins our group is required to complete the 'Teen Code Of Conduct' which outlines what is acceptable/not acceptable within our training environment. Parents/guardians are also required to read and sign the document so that they too are aware of our culture and acceptable/not acceptable behaviour. 
Junior Elite Team
Participants in this age group have the opportunity to be selected in the de Been 100% Jiu Jitsu Junior Elite Team (JET). Teens selected for JET have the opportunity to represent not just de Been 100% Jiu Jitsu Academies, but also Australia on an international platform competing overseas in a major tournament. Teens are selected from within their respective de Been Academies and attend a weekend training camp at the de Been 100% Jiu Jitsu Headquarters, Saint Kilda. From this training camp successful athletes are selected, are sponsored by de Been 100% Jiu Jitsu for training, JET uniforms, competition entry costs and more!

A challenge and acceptance and an excitement for learning.... her peers have been an inspiration, they are all very welcoming and happy to help. You have made learning fun...well done!
