Brazilian jiu jitsu gi classes blend tradition with technique for a well-rounded martial art, offering a great balance of self-defence training and fitness, with the discipline and structure of a traditional martial art. Brazilian jiu jitsu gi classes also help to teach grappling and grip-based submissions that aren’t easy with regular clothes.
We offer multiple membership options so that you can enjoy as many classes as you want! Sign up for a full membership with weekly, bi-annual, or annual payments, or you can attend casual classes or buy a 10-class pack. We also have a 7-day trial that gives you unlimited class access to see why Brazilian jiu jitsu gi classes are so popular!
Gi Brazilian jiu jitsu is a fantastic way to get fit, boost your strength, and learn new skills, and at Academy 411 we make it as fun and welcoming as possible. This is a particularly good martial art for kids, as the traditional gi can act as a trigger for kids to get in the zone and focus, helping them be more disciplined.
Academy 411 is the best choice for all ages because our instructors are all passionate about Brazilian jiu jitsu, and want to support you in your journey. Kids are also in safe hands at Academy 411, all coaches have working with children checks, first aid and CPR training, and lots of experience. Our mat space is also the largest in the Eastern suburbs, so there’s plenty of room for everyone to learn!
One of the founding goals of Academy 411 is to help people get involved in our passion: competitive Brazilian jiu jitsu. We design our Brazilian jiu jitsu gi classes to help our students create a pathway not only towards fitness and self-defence, but also competing if they are keen to see how their skills work in practice.
Pitting your strength against other people is a great way to improve your fitness, physical strength, and endurance, especially with so many BJJ techniques requiring you to physically restrain or overpower your opponent. Learning practical self-defence skills is also an excellent way to boost confidence, and our jiu jitsu gi classes teach a great mix of traditional and modern moves for you to train.
The first step to learning new skills and gaining confidence in your physical abilities is to join the supportive classes at Academy 411. Our experienced instructors are ready to help you discover the fun and challenge of gi Brazilian jiu jitsu. Sign up for our 7-day trial and you can join unlimited classes to really get a taste of this exciting combat sport!
Unlike Japanese jiu jitsu, which is a more traditional martial art with strikes and throws, BJJ focuses on using leverage and techniques to teach you the skills needed to defend yourself against larger opponents. This means our Brazilian jiu jitsu for adults is fantastic for building strength, as well as confidence in your own ability to defend yourself.
Keen to learn Brazilian jiu jitsu but already working out at another gym? We have a special ‘traitor’ membership that lets you join as many classes as you like, without taking part in gradings or promotions. Keep yourself fit and learn new skills at your own pace without giving up traditional gym workouts!
If you’re interested in becoming fitter, stronger, and learning the skills you need to defend yourself, our Brazilian jiu jitsu for adults is the perfect choice. Our welcoming community and experienced coaches make it a safe and friendly environment to learn. Book a 7-day trial and you can join unlimited classes and see why Brazilian jiu jitsu is so popular!
We offer a week of unlimited training for people wanting to try out the gym.

Brazilian jiu jitsu gi classes blend tradition with modern techniques to train you physically and mentally. The gi itself isn’t just a uniform, but a practical way to learn grip-based grappling that isn't possible in casual clothes.
The frequency of training varies based on each person, but training once or twice a week is a good starting point without over-working your body.
Classes typically begin with warm-ups and stretching before moving into drilling techniques, followed by sparring.
Everyone is welcome to join in our classes, even those who have never heard of Brazilian jiu jitsu before! You don’t need to bring anything except a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.
Absolutely, we provide a gi for every participant, and can help you purchase your own if you’re interested.

Some Of the best coaches available in Aus. Couldn’t be happier to be training here in Sydney.Posted on Alberto Mangas7 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This gym is amazing, and so are the coaches. The level of detail on the techniques really make a difference, and so does the great atmosphere at the academy 💪🏻 Would recommend to anyone that’s looking for a place to train in SydneyPosted on Steven Milogiannakis4 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Four Eleven is sick! They have both great gi and no gi coaches. They watch your rolls and give you feedback. They support you at competitions and genuinely care about you. Happy to have trained here.Posted on Jonathon M1 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined Academy 411 last year having never tried Jiu jitsu before, the owners/staff immediately made me feel at home and comfortable.The gym is one of the most welcoming environments I’ve ever had the pleasure of being apart of and 411 feels like a family. On top of that the coaches are constantly adapting techniques/game-plans to be on top of the constantly evolving sport that modern jiu jitsu has become allowing members to evolve with the sport and constantly up their game. 10/10 would recommend also neurodivergent friendly 😎Posted on Maab18 March 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Academy 411 has been an incredible addition to my jits routine. They offer a "Traitor Membership," which is perfect for those who already train elsewhere but want to supplement their training with quality sessions (me). The gym facilities itself are top-tier with great matspace, an aesthetic vibe and some of the cleanest bathrooms I’ve seen at a jits gym. There’s a strong competition focus with a diverse range of athletes, from hobbyists to serious competitors, making every session a great mix of technical work and hard rounds. Also super nice and friendly peeps. I train both gi and nogi here, and both programs are solid, with a good balance of instruction and intensity. An excellent place to train. Highly recommend for anyone looking to cross-train!Posted on Kogar Cetinich15 March 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
