took my son in for the first time into grappling HQ he was really nervous but Chris made him feel very welcome and he really enjoys the classes now
Such a fantastic club! A great balance of a friendly, welcoming atmosphere while still maintaining a professional environment. My son has been attending for four terms now, and the improvement in his focus, technique, and self-confidence has been incredible! Huge credit to Chris and the team at Grappling HQ. I honestly can’t recommend them highly enough!
Our three kids just started taking the 3-5 and 6-8 year old classes last term. They all love it! (Two boys and a girl). The coaches are so engaging, the kids’ coordination is getting better and better, and the atmosphere of the whole gym is inviting and encouraging. We will definitely be sticking around for a while!
Great place to train. Good coaches, excellent schedule and good overall vibes. I look forward to being here at the end of every day. Jason
I’ve been training at Grappling HQ for the past two years, and it’s been an awesome experience. The coaches are knowledgeable, the environment is welcoming, and everyone is happy to help you improve, no matter your experience level. The gym gave me the confidence to step into a couple of competitions that I never thought I’d enter, and one of the best parts has been the people. I’ve made some great mates here that I catch up with outside the gym as well. If you’ve ever thought about giving grappling or BJJ a go, I’d definitely recommend signing up for a week and seeing how you like it. It’s a great place to learn, challenge yourself, and be part of a fantastic community.
I started at GHQ around 4 months ago and have nothing but positive words to say about Chris and the GHQ team. The community and vibe of GHQ is top notch, and I can genuinely say even with a (fair few) nerves going into a Jiu Jitsu/MMA gym for the first time last year, that you feel welcomed immediately. I've really enjoyed my time thus far and made some awesome mates. One of the highlights to me is the level of coaching from Chris and Dan... it's spectacular! Detailed and precise. And these boys really go the extra mile (even outside of the classes/sessions) with planned social events/activites etc. Such an awesome gym! Thanks again team!
I attended to a seminar at Grappling HQ. Top quality facility with great coaches. Chris and Dan made me feel welcomed from the second I stepped through the door. All the members were friendly which just shows a great culture they've built here. Highly recommend.
Two years ago my son started training at Grappling HQ. I could not recommend sending your kids here enough. My son was at the end of his first year of school (which he hated) and had not much interest in anything else… fast forward to training twice a week at Grappling HQ with the guidance and support of Chris a switch flick. He soon became determined to be just as good all the kids better than him and this changed his mindset completely. He wanted to train hard on the mats and wanted to be better. He now is entering grappling competitions and doing amazing. This same mindset has had the same effect at school and I have noticed a huge change in himself. Thanks so much Chris for everything you do for him! Appreciate it so much.
