About us

Little Lion Clubs offer two fun, movement-based programs designed especially for kindy-aged kids -  Little Lion Dance Club and Little Lion Jiu-Jitsu Club.

Our dance classes help children explore rhythm, creativity, and self-expression through music and play, while our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu sessions teach confidence, balance, and respect through safe, game-based martial arts. Both programs are built around positivity, teamwork, and fun; helping every child move, learn, and grow.

What Parents Say

Coach Dylan has been welcoming kids into his Jiu-Jitsu family for years at his home gym - where he trains, learns, competes, acts as Assistant Coach, and pours his heart into every class. Our new Little Lion Clubs are opening 2026, and the same passionate coaching that kids (and parents!) rave about is coming with him. Here’s what parents from his longtime program have to say!

My son "A" has been under the guidance of coach Dylan P for 6 months now and it's been such a pleasure to see how much personal growth he has made. I read a few studies on Jiu Jitsu and how much it impacts a child's impulse control, discipline, and general behaviour. I was skeptical at first but over the last few months, "A" has made huge leaps and bounds ... I couldn't recommend coach Dylan any higher

"EP"

Dad

Coach Dylan P is amazing with our kids! He's always upbeat, encouraging and really cares about helping them improve. He gives great feedback, makes training fun and you can tell he truly loves what he does.

"DW"

Mum

Dylan's coached my son "T" for a few months now and the progression he's made not only in Jiu Jitsu but within himself is really amazing to see. His self confidence is much higher and he's come out of his shell so much and it's really awesome to see as a parent ... Dylan is an amazing coach and person and his coaching towards the kids is really inspiring

"JD"

Dad

Dylan is an excellent coach, I've been coached by him and he's coached my boys. Great knowledge of the sport and how to teach it

Frequently Asked Questions

A playful, game-based martial arts program designed for kindy-aged children. Little Lion Jiu-Jitsu helps kids learn to move with control, think calmly under pressure, and grow in confidence - all while having fun, developing social skills, and making friends!

A fun, creative movement program designed especially for kindy-aged children. Little Lions dance helps kids explore rhythm, balance, and self-expression through music and play.

Quite the opposite! Extensive 2025 studies show Jiu-Jitsu helps children regulate their energy, reduce their aggression, practice self-control, and learn calm, respectful, and prosocial behaviours.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gives children more than self-defence - it helps them manage their emotions, work through challenges, and build lasting confidence. Because it is a non-striking martial art, kids learn to stay calm and think clearly even in tricky or confronting situations. Each class develops patience, respect, and teamwork, helping children grow.

Not at all. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is referred to as “the gentle art” because it’s a non-striking martial art - meaning there are no punches or kicks. Instead, we focus on calm movement, balance, and control through cooperative games.

Through fun games and guided play, children learn to manage their energy, move safely, and solve problems calmly. They’ll develop focus, coordination, and social awareness - along with values of respect, discipline, and teamwork.

All Little Lion Clubs are run by two passionate Directors:

  • Steph, an Early Childhood Educator with a background in professional dance, teaching, and live performance

  • Dylan, a Behaviour Specialist and active Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach and competitor
