Expert BJJ kids classes led by Anthony Perosh
Our studio was started by Anthony Perosh, a UFC light heavyweight veteran fighter and a fourth-degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. With his many years of experience and passion for martial arts, Anthony Perosh has helped our martial arts studio to grow quickly. We now have many wonderful students who are eager to learn a variety of forms of self-defence.
Some of the classes we teach cover basic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for kids, mixed martial arts and even Muay Thai boxing courses for kids. All of our kids martial arts classes are safe, closely monitored and designed to teach your child not only important self-defence techniques but also important self-mastery skills.
The study of martial arts can help your child cultivate self-discipline, respect for others and themselves and patience. When your child enrols in our courses, you can have the assurance that not only will they develop as a skilled martial artist, but that they will also gain life skills that will help them for years to come.

What to expect in our BJJ classes for kids in Sydney
Our programs for BJJ for kids provide a structured, engaging and supportive environment where children of all experience levels — from complete beginners to experienced young grapplers — can develop their skills. Each class follows a carefully designed curriculum to build confidence, discipline and technique step by step.
- Warm-ups and drills — Every session begins with dynamic warm-ups, including mobility exercises, agility drills and coordination-building movements. These activities improve balance, reaction time and body awareness, essential for mastering BJJ techniques.
- Technique instruction — Kids learn the core positions, escapes, submissions and transitions of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Instructors break down each technique into easy-to-follow steps, ensuring that young students understand and apply the movements effectively.
- Controlled sparring (rolling) — Under the close supervision of our expert coaches, kids engage in safe, structured sparring. This helps them apply techniques in real time, develop timing and problem-solving skills and gain confidence in a live training setting.
- Games and team exercises — To keep classes fun and engaging, we incorporate interactive games and partner-based drills that reinforce BJJ principles while building teamwork, focus and perseverance.
Kids progress at their own pace with positive reinforcement, encouragement and structured learning. We help them develop resilience, problem-solving abilities and self-confidence — on and off the mats.
