12 guiding principles: The heart of every program

Our Principles

where our mission becomes action

Pressure Proof: Our Anti-Bullying & Confidence Program

We believe every child deserves the tools to handle life’s social pressures. That means teaching kids how to stand up for themselves without violence — and helping those who might use bullying to find better ways to manage stress, anger, and insecurity. Through Jiu Jitsu and our 12 Guiding Principles, we build confidence, control, and empathy in every student.

Pressure Tested: Youth Scholarship Program

Provides kids & teens with full memberships to a reputable Jiu Jitsu academy, along with mentorship and life skills education. Every month, students focus on one of our 12 Guiding Principles—like “Fear Forward” or “Brick by Brick”—and practice applying it both on and off the mats. They leave with more than just athletic ability—they leave with a personal life code for success.
