BJJ in Sydney

February 28, 2024/by John Smallios

There’s something special brewing just outside of the Sydney CBD.

It’s been almost 10 years of solid work to get us here.

And we’re now firing on all cylinders.

Higher Jiu Jitsu is not a stone throw from St Mary’s Cathedral. Legit, throw a rock from the top of the Cathedral and you’ll hit us down here at PCYC City of Sydney.

Our mission?

To help everyday people build quality of life with Gracie Jiu Jitsu.

Our style of jiu jitsu is one that relies on the magic of leverage, by understanding your anatomy, and applying effective mechanics that anyone of any size can accomplish.

The benefit?

It’s all about the quality of life.

Sure some of our students are competitors, and like to battle it out in BJJ competitions. But, most of our students don’t particularly want to compete, and that’s fine. There’s no pushing anyone into things they’re not interested in here.

Instead, we want you to flourish however you imagine, on and off the mats. We want you to be physically fit, and mobile and constantly getting better, not beaten down.

We endeavour for you to be sharp, and motivated, and excited to come to class, and learn and practice and love your training.

We aim for you to feel fantastic, knowing you have an epic crew of legends around you, working with you to improve skills, and learn a new craft, and simply enjoy yourselves.

Everybody does jiu jitsu for different reasons, and that’s OK. At Higher we congregate and we enjoy our training. We see jiu jitsu not as a fight to be won, but as a game to be played.

And like this we build skill, and a hobby to be enjoyed for a lifetime.

Don’t take our word for it.

Come to Higher Jiu Jitsu for a free trial class and see what all the fuss is about. Almost 300 5 star Google reviews might convince you. There is magic in the air in Woolloomooloo, and we’re here to show you why.

Get Started Today

See you on the mats!
