What Others Are Saying About Phoenix Training Centre
More Than a Gym! A Family That Grows Together Through Jiu-Jitsu!
"My son and I started training at Phoenix five years ago, and Jiu-Jitsu quickly became a huge part of our lives. Today, our whole family trains, and I now coach the kids' classes. Watching children grow in confidence, discipline, and self-belief through Jiu-Jitsu is truly rewarding. Phoenix isn't just a gym, it's a family. I highly recommend it to anyone, young or old, looking to better themselves."

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be fit to start?
No fitness level is required. Our students start from all walks of life. Much of what we teach is built on technique and timing rather than strength or athleticism. The fitness comes with the training.
Will my child become a bully?
In our experience, confident kids become more compassionate kids. We teach children not only how to stand up for themselves, but how to stand up for others. All students learn our Rules of Engagement, clear guidelines for when to respond physically and when to use words. We equip kids with grappling and striking skills that give them the ability to neutralise, defend, control and negotiate. Most school incidents end up on the ground. We prepare kids for that reality while giving them the choice of how they respond.
Do you have private lessons?
Yes. Available by appointment. Ideal for anyone who wants to build confidence before joining group classes, or who has specific needs or schedule constraints.
What do I need to bring to my first class?
Comfortable sporting attire with no zips or pockets. A rashguard and shorts are ideal. Bring a water bottle. When you join, we have a pro shop on-site for everything you'll need.
Do you offer competition?
Yes. We have a small but highly successful Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition team that has produced Victorian and Australian National Champions. Competition is always optional.
How much does it cost?
We have various programs depending on what you're hoping to get out of martial arts. It's almost impossible to recommend the right one before we've met you and before you've experienced a class. That's why we recommend starting with the free trial. There's no pressure and no obligation if it's not the right fit for both of us.
