Great place to train. Instruction is amazing, the gym was clean.
I walked into Matlab Grappling Academy nervous and completely out of shape. I even booked a private lesson first because I was pretty intimidated to get started training but Nick was patient and made it feel manageable from day one. A few months later, I’m fitter than I’ve ever been and preparing for my first competition sometime this year. Nick and Jackie genuinely care about bringing out the best in everyone. There’s a great balance between fundamentals and more competition focused classes so it works whether you’re brand new or want to take it seriously
Nick and Jackie have created such a welcoming, professional, fun and competitive environment here, from day one beginners to advanced grapplers, the lab caters for everyone individually and as a team.
By far the friendliest and best BJJ academy in Adelaide, the coaching from Nick and Jackie is world class. The team mates are incredible and the structured learning makes improving feel so much more attainable.
I could not recommend The Mat Lab anymore. Nick and Jackie provide an amazing environment to learn with all sessions being structured in technical blocks to ensure all students are learning the foundations and in depth pathways to grappling in a planned and thorough format catered to all levels. Apart from the outstanding coaching, there is also an amazing team culture at the club where everyone supports everyone with their development and has fun along the way.
Nicks coaching is high level and practical. Throughly enjoyed his workshop on leg locks.
The MatLab is an exceptional place to train with a very welcoming atmosphere. Nick Hughes delivers some of the highest‑level coaching in the state, combining deep technical knowledge with clear, effective instruction. The club is friendly, supportive, and easy to settle into from the moment you walk in.
