Great place, great people really easy to follow along. Highly recommend to anyone living in or passing Sydney and wanting to try Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Having recently joined Higher Jiu Jitsu I cannot recommend the gym highly enough. John is a fantastic coach. John is extremely warm and friendly and has a fantastic teaching style that makes the core concepts of BJJ easy to pick up. Everyone has been really welcoming to me since joining and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
I joined Higher about 6 months ago having moved across from the UK. It is such a welcoming environment - John and the rest of the team clearly work really hard to make it a friendly and supportive place to train. The coaching is also excellent so can’t recommend it enough!
Higher Jiu Jitsu is a fantastic place for learning and development. The coaches are very professional and pedagogical; there are sessions for all levels every day. The practitioners are extremely friendly. This is the first time I've practiced BJJ; before, I was into MMA in France. My English level isn't exceptional, but in sports, that doesn't matter: the explanations are very clear, and people love to share their sport. I think it's the best combat sport that can exist, combining strength, flexibility, and momentum. Regarding the facility, it is very accessible and well-maintained. John, the club manager, is a very kind and attentive person, creating a real dynamic within his dojo. Every time I just wait for the next session, it's really addictive :)
Higher jiu jitsu is a great place to learn all things jiu jitsu. The best part about Higher is not only the great teachers and experts that regularly come through but for me, the community and people. I am a complete noob and they foster an open and welcoming environment thats about learning and having fun.
Trained today from out of town (I’m Canadian). First time at this gym, coach John and the other students were very welcoming and helped me get set up with a rental gi and everything I needed.Good technical instruction and lots of help from the coach and other students.Great place to train, I highly recommend for first timers or for higher belts!
The boys over at higher Jiu Jitsu were very accommodating as I was a drop in guest from a different state. They demonstrated nothing but the upmost respect and welcomed me with open arms. I attended the comp class, fundamentals and intermediate. All lessons, the instructor demonstrated structured teaching which was not only easy to understand but also effective. I couldn’t recommend the boys over at higher Jiu Jitsu more.
A place to harness your jiu-jitsu, self-defence, mental+physical potential.Friendly to beginners, with challenging classes, helpful team mates and caring coaches. Drop-ins by fantastic global coaches are a huge plus. All the things you’d want in a great jits gym.Thank you and kudos, Coach John and team @ Higher JJ
I joined Higher Jiu Jitsu in September shorty after arriving from the U.K. and have really enjoyed my time at the club. The coaching team lead by John Smallios are brilliant teachers and have done very well to create a friendly and supportive culture. There are no big egos and everyone is approachable and keen to impart their knowledge. As I joined the club with no experience of Jiu Jitsu this has been a great environment to start my journey into the world of BJJ and learn the basics. Safe to say I’m hooked and I have little doubt you will be too. Massively recommend Higher Jiu Jitsu to everyone from those interested in taking up the sport to seasoned veterans!
