The Journey is a Solo Road, But the Team Paves the Way!
There is a ego-friendly environment at Northside Jiu-Jitsu. Not only will our coaches be on the mat from the start to finish with you, but your teammates as well will help inspire you to be the best you can be. There is support and positivity the moment you step through our doors. You will find new friends and build life long bonds that you would never normally make. That is the strength of Jiu-Jitsu.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. As water reflects a face, so a man’s heart reflects the man.”

About Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Classes
Our classes are made up of two types of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: Beginners and Self-Defence, as well as Principles and Concepts.
All members are welcome regardless of experience or rank to any of our timetable structured classes!
Self-Defence and Beginners:
The self-defence portion of our classes consist of skillsets and systems that will help you against the the most common sorts of attacks of an unskilled aggressor. Physical confrontation is scary even amongst the skilled, at Northside we will work with you in the safest manner to support your learning helping you with practical learning and theoretical understanding to combat any situation.
Our beginners course is focused on the importance of structured foundation of the core concepts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. At Northside we are trialling a Position/Situation of the month. Where we take one fundamental position or a series of situations and work towards breaking down all concepts and techniques that are related to the position or situation. This helps a student rely on their muscle memory when it comes to the “rolling” session of the class and can actively define the position and relate techniques that they have learned previously. This method has been trialled by the head coach who teaches at Northside Jiu-Jitsu at other affiliate academies and has had great success and feedback about this learning structure.
