Our Story

Garage Jiu Jitsu started humbly in a small garage in Bondi with Gui Neves in 2010. What began as a local training space quickly grew into a thriving community, leading to the opening of our first official gym in Bondi followed by locations in the Sydney CBD, Wollongong, Central Coast and Rosebery.

At Garage Jiu Jitsu, we’re passionate about empowering people through the Jiu Jitsu lifestyle. Our mission is to build strong, supportive communities where everyone from kids to adults, beginners to competitors can grow both on and off the mats.

We’re proud to offer diverse grappling styles, world-class instruction, and a welcoming environment for all levels.

Our Values

We are all athletes.

Our Values

Jiu Jitsu isn’t just what we do it’s how we live.

It’s where we grow, push our limits, and become part of something bigger.

On the mats, we learn discipline, respect, and resilience, lessons that shape how we move through life.

Training defines who we are, how we treat our teammates, how we handle pressure, and how we keep showing up, together.

These are the values that guide us every day.

Respect

It's about valuing each individual's worth and treating them with kindness and consideration, regardless of differences.

At our core, we prioritise mutual respect.

Courage

It's about embracing challenges with bravery and determination.

At our core, we celebrate those who push boundaries and pursue their dreams fearlessly.

Loyalty

It's the unwavering commitment to standing by each other through thick and thin, fostering trust and unity within our community.

At our core, we honor those who demonstrate enduring loyalty, creating a bond that endures challenges.

Persistency

It's the relentless pursuit of goals despite obstacles, embodying resilience and determination in every endeavour.

At our core, we admire those who show unwavering persistence, inspiring others to never give up on their aspirations.
