Serving Melbourne
Pure Life Kidsnear Melbourne, Florida
Pure Life Kids is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and anti-bullying program for children aged 5 to 11 in Indialantic, Florida.
Classes coach the fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu alongside discipline, self defense drills, conditioning and positional sparring.
The goal is to give a child unshakable confidence so they can handle bullying — or any other challenge that comes at them.
From 12, students can move up to the adult classes, which are open to anyone 12 and over.
Getting here from Melbourne
Pure Life isn't in Melbourne. It's in Indialantic, on the other side of the Indian River, but for most of Melbourne it is one bridge away. The Melbourne Causeway (US-192) crosses the river straight into Indialantic, where the academy sits on North Miramar Avenue (A1A) in the Indialantic Shopping Center.
From the north end of town, Eau Gallie and the streets around it, the Eau Gallie Causeway is often the easier crossing: over the river to the beach, then south on A1A to Indialantic.
The drive is short enough for a class before or after work. The times further down come straight from the class schedule, with when to leave Melbourne to make them.

Questions from Melbourne
- Is Pure Life Martial Arts in Melbourne?
- No. The academy is at 800 N Miramar Ave in Indialantic, across the Indian River from Melbourne. From central Melbourne it is roughly 8 minutes by car over the Melbourne Causeway (US-192).
- Which causeway should I take from Melbourne?
- From downtown and most of central or south Melbourne, the Melbourne Causeway on US-192 is the direct route. From Eau Gallie and north Melbourne, the Eau Gallie Causeway and then south on A1A usually makes more sense. Either way you finish on A1A in Indialantic.
- Can I fit a class around work in Melbourne?
- Most programs train on weekday evenings, and some also have early-morning sessions. This page lists the times for this program and when to leave Melbourne to make each one, allowing about ten minutes to park and change.
