The purpose of the youth program is to promote an attitude of healthy living and exercise in children while also providing them the tools they need in life to succeed by teaching them to remain determined and to never give up.

“UFC Gym is very family friendly and pro-youth programming,” said Mike Lindsay, owner of UFC Gym Santa Clarita. “It is important because of the lesser amounts of P.E. classes in schools, and it is programming that kids find interesting.”

A portion of the youth program deals with self defense and anti-bullying and works with the children to build their self-confidence.

Unlike other gyms where class times are different among the different age groups, at UFC Gym Santa Clarita the youth and adult classes are at the same time, so parents no longer have to wait for their workout while their child is in class.

“The youth programs are similarly programmed to the adult programs,” Lindsay explained. “The times coincide with each other so the whole family can work out at the same time.”

Those who participate in the youth program have a variety of classes available to them, such as Boxing, Muy Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Kickboxing and Mixed Martial Arts just tailored to match a child’s skill and ability level rather than an adult’s.

Daily Ultimate Training classes are also offered at the UFC Gym Santa Clarita, where parents and kids have the opportunity to train together and work as a team.

For those unsure of whether or not this is the sport for their child, Lindsay says to come to the gym and try their free class.

“The first class is complimentary so you can come in and see if it is the right fit,” Lindsay said. “All our coaches are highly skilled at youth programming who are certified instructors. The kids have fun without even realizing they are exercising.”
