The Youth Preventative program at C.U.T.S. is designed to help adolescents correct patterns of poor behavior that may have developed over a period of time due to any number of societal factors. The participants will complete a 8-week (PLAAY) intervention with martial arts before being tested in a Jiu Jitsu tournament. C.U.T.S. use Jiu Jitsu tournaments to test what a child has learned through our program. It makes a child deal with emotions under pressure. It's one on one, so it forces accountability. The tournament also enforces handshaking which is great for measuring a child anger/emotions after a win or lost. There are many other reasons we use these tournaments such as patience in waiting your turn, following directions, ect. After tournament a evaluation will be done on the child performance, then a decision will be made to keep the child in (PLAAY) for another 8-weeks (some need more time then others), have that child sent to our license therapist, or offer the child a chance to join our year round mentoring class (Sat.) . Where they can continue to do martial arts, stay in contact with the coaches, and push themself with more tournaments.
