Potomac kids learn BJJ, wrestling, and kickboxing at Rising Tide MoCo MMA — structured martial arts 15 minutes from Potomac Village.
Potomac families have a strong tradition of investing in their children's development — academics, athletics, music, and martial arts. Rising Tide MoCo MMA, 15 minutes from Potomac Village, offers a youth program that fits exactly that standard: structured curriculum, expert coaches, and a culture built on discipline and respect.
Our kids program teaches Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling, and kickboxing for ages 5 through 15. Beyond the techniques, we teach the qualities that matter: focus, respect, perseverance, and grace under pressure. Many Potomac private-school students train with us, and the discipline carries directly into their academics and other sports.
Many Potomac families train together. Parents take adult BJJ, wrestling, or kickboxing classes that line up with the youth schedule — a shared activity that turns the 15-minute drive into one of the most meaningful family routines of the week.
