Programs for Every Age

Flow Academy is one of the few martial arts schools in Riverside that truly serves every generation. Our programs span from age 3 (Little Ninjas) through adults of all ages, including specialized programs like Rock Steady Boxing for Parkinson's and Active Fit 55+ for seniors.

This means a family of four could all be training at the same facility — the 4-year-old in Little Ninjas, the 8-year-old in Kids BJJ, mom in the adult program, and grandpa in Rock Steady Boxing. It's not just a gym; it's a family activity center.

Here's our full age coverage: Little Ninjas (ages 3-6), Kids BJJ (ages 7-9), Youth BJJ (ages 10-14), Adult BJJ (15+), No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu (all ages), Women's Self-Defense, Rock Steady Boxing (Parkinson's), Active Fit 55+, and Flow Limitless (adaptive).

Family Discounts

We believe martial arts should be accessible to entire families, not just individuals. Flow Academy offers family pricing that makes it affordable to have multiple family members training. The more family members enrolled, the more you save per person.

Contact us directly for family pricing details — we'll put together a package that works for your specific situation. We also offer sibling discounts for families with multiple children in our kids programs.

Training Together

There's something special about a family that shares a physical practice. Parents who train alongside their children model the values they want to teach — discipline, perseverance, humility, and respect. Kids see their parents struggle with new techniques and keep trying, which normalizes the learning process.

Many of our families make training a weekly tradition. Tuesday nights are 'family night' where parents and kids are all on the mat at the same time (in their respective classes). After class, families often stay to watch each other's progress and celebrate achievements together.

What Families Say

"We started with just my son in Kids BJJ. Within two months, my husband joined the adult class, and now I'm in the women's self-defense course. It's become our family's thing." — The Martinez Family

"My dad does Rock Steady Boxing on the same nights my kids train. Three generations at the same gym. The coaches know all of us by name." — The Thompson Family

These stories are common at Flow Academy. When one family member starts, others often follow. The community is welcoming, the facility is clean and professional, and the coaching is world-class across every program.
