HEAR FROM OUR STUDENTS
“I was tired of going to the gym. Since joining the club, Jiu Jitsu has completely changed how I approach fitness. I look forward to every class now. My strength and mobility have improved dramatically, and since I'm not getting any younger, keeping that mobility is absolutely essential."
Luke
HEAR FROM OUR STUDENTS
"After going to my 1st class over 7 years ago, I was nervous and unsure if "this is for me". By the end of the 1st class I felt happy with what I'd learned and excited for my next class. With friendly and knowledgeable instructors, I was able to learn and enjoy classes surrounded by other students as eager as myself to learn and progress. Definitely one of the better decisions I made and I'm happy to say 7 years along, I'm still just as happy in those classes and I've made some great friends along the way.

HEAR FROM OUR STUDENTS
"My son has been training here for over a year and the growth in his confidence and discipline has been remarkable. The instructors not only teach technique but also emphasise respect, focus and perseverance. It’s been a positive influence in his life."
