I trained at A-Team for about a month while travelling around Australia on a working holiday visa, and it was such a great experience!
There are plenty of experienced practitioners here, and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. They were always respectful and considerate during sparring, which made it really easy to feel comfortable and settle in, even as someone new to the gym.
I really enjoyed the coaching style as well. Rather than just learning techniques, we were encouraged to discuss them, explore their weaknesses, and share ideas on how to improve them. I found this approach really helpful, as it made the techniques much easier to understand and remember.
A-Team is mainly a No-Gi gym, although you'll occasionally see people bringing their Gis in for some rolls on Saturdays.
I'd trained Gi Jiu Jitsu for a couple of years before coming here, so No-Gi was pretty new to me. But I actually found it a bit more practical and dynamic than I expected, and I really started to enjoy it!
And honestly, not having to buy, carry around, or constantly wash a Gi was a massive bonus 😂 Especially as a backpacker who didn't exactly have room for one in my luggage haha.
If you're looking for a gym full of friendly people who genuinely love Jiu Jitsu, I'd definitely recommend giving A-Team a visit.
I hope more people get to discover how fun No-Gi can be, just like I did. I'll definitely be sticking with No-Gi from now on!
Thanks to Ken and everyone at A-Team for making me feel so welcome! 🤙
Its an amazing gym, that I genuinely would recommend to anyone. From all different skill levels, everyone is made to feel welcome, and their is a very warm and friendly gym culture. Coach Kennet is also a phenominal coach, who is clear, precise and great at explaining hard/tricky skills! (Especially with funny analogies aha) 💯😊
I was visiting Brisbane for a few weeks and dropped by A-Team Jiujitsu for a few classes. I've known Ken for a few years and trained with him previously.
He has created an amazing gym that is built around community and this partly due to his approach to teaching. He makes learning Jiujitsu very understandable through his conceptual approach. This means anybody from beginners to experienced practitioners can benefit from his classes.
The people are friendly and welcoming and I would highly recommend this gym!
I’ve trained Martial Arts all my life and specifically BJJ the past 6 years in various clubs throughout Brisbane. The style of coaching here is at the top! Kennet coaches the way we learn which is different to the traditional way most academies train. This approach means he’s enabling his students to build a very strong foundation for their jiu jitsu and this is evident when you roll with them! I thoroughly enjoy training here and can see the gaps in my game being removed which is very satisfying.
I took the fundamentals class- one of the best classes I have ever taken - learned so much from a strategic and practical point of view. Kennet and all the other members made me feel welcome and a part of the community from one class.
Kennet has great insight into everything Jiu Jitsu related and is easy to talk to in relation to same. Great drills, rolls and post class learning.
Thank you Kennet and A-team Jiu Jitsu- hope to train again with y’all soon. 🙇♂️🙏🏾
What a great BJJ club! The kids class is so fun that you forget its a combat sport. Top tier club culture, its a friendly and safe environment at all ages and levels. The coaches are approachable and know your name. Heaps of classes, beginners, intermediates and experts are all catered for.
A-Team Jiu Jitsu is a fast-paced learning system, not just a BJJ gym.
You do not walk through the doors and simply collect techniques. You are taught how to think, move, adapt, problem-solve, and build Jiu Jitsu around your own body type.
The coaching is clearly shaped by a deep understanding of biology, human movement, and the science of learning. Every session feels intentional, structured, and designed to accelerate progress.
At A-Team, you are not just learning moves. You are learning how to learn.
This is what separates this place, and this is why many won’t leave.
