Jiu-Jitsu classes

No. Beginners are welcome. Tell the coach you’re new so they can help you settle in.

Core Jiu-Jitsu is a practical starting point for adults. Kids join the appropriate age group. If you’re unsure, let the team know when booking and we’ll help you choose.

Bring clean training clothes, a water bottle and shoes for off the mats. For NoGi, wear a rash guard or fitted top and shorts without open pockets, buttons or zips. Keep nails short and gear clean.

The academy has Gis for people getting started. Ask the team before your first class about availability and any hire arrangements.

An infrared sauna is available at Train4. See Sauna Club for booking, pricing and what to bring.

Jiu-Jitsu goes well with coffee. Enjoy a brew between classes and keep noise considerate while people are training. Ask the team about current cafe hours.

Train4 offers beginner camps, Core and Technical camps, and BJJ for MMA fight-camp preparation by arrangement with your coaches.

Corporate workshops cover de-escalation, situational awareness and teamwork. Contact the team for bookings and current availability.

The Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Kimono ads the use of the uniform to the martial art.

It changes the dynamic of the sport and is crucial to having a full Jiu Jitsu experience.

Plus, it gives you something to tie your belt around.

One of the best improvements you can make to your Jiu Jitsu game?

Swapping your T-Shirt for a Rash guard! Increased mobility, more breathable, more hygienic, makes you look like a superhero.

Every community needs a staple T-shirt! Perfect for repping to or from training, and sure does look cooler than filling up at the petrol station with your Gi on!

The best thing about Nogi classes?

Cool fight short designs!
No Pockets!

Awesome!

Started at a different gym, or maybe you have your own Gi from online and want to put a Train4. patch on it.

We have them too - ask in store!

As strange as it sounds, we have put a lot of effort into getting good quality stickers.

We were sick of colors that faded in the sun or overtime.

It's safe to say that these sticker packs meet that mark.

We have a changeroom available at the academy, and Gi's to use for those who are just getting started.

We ask members to take all items out of the changerooms and use the provided lockers for storage throughout the classes.

The mats are a premium Tatami 2m (x) 1m, 40mm.

These are thick for a Jiu Jitsu mat but is fast becoming the general standard.

We have matched that while making sure the mat density remained.

We've put a lot of forethought into the set up of the mat, please respect the space by considering the following:

1. No shoes on the mats
2. Wipe your feet at the designated cleaning stations prior to walking on the mats
3. Shoes back on - when exiting the mat space.

Thanks!

The facility has (3) toilets at the site which are well lit and accessible.

We ask that children are supervised by parents and all patrons are mindful of cleanliness - it is a shared space after all.

DO NOT enter the toilet facility without shoes.

The academy is situated within a carpark - this is handy - however:

We simply ask that everyone considers road safety, and that parents are monitoring children.

We are a family friendly academy and hold the right to ask any person (member or otherwise) to vacate the premises if poor behavior is identified.

This is at the Academy Managers discretion so please refrain from reasonably inappropriate language as a base line.

Thankyou and we appreciate you adding value to the community.

We're going to go ahead and say it - no-one appreciates a smelly Gi and/or Body Oduor!

Clean your gear after each workout, wash yourself prior to class, and don't be the training partner that scratches everyone!
Cut your nails!

Lastly, a minty or some chewing gum is a great item to keep in your training bag to help with any bad breath.

If your group is at a physically higher level than another group, you are responsible for not landing on the other group.

If you lift someone up, you are responsible for a safe descent.

If you see someone on their own, invite them to your group.

Make the rolling component fun for your partner - remember: not everyone wants to get beat up all the time.

If for any reason you feel unsure, speak up.

In a world where people are becoming addicted to social media, we are forgetting how to be social.

Remember, everyone at Train4. is part of the welcoming community - discuss your perspective with others and together we can go further!
