We have several Martial Arts programs to suit all ages. If you are new to Martial Arts or if you are perhaps a bit tentative, we have beginner groups so you can first adapt your body to accommodate the physical requirements of advanced training. Soke Billy Manne has been training in Martial Arts since he was six years old.
Krav Maga is a Martial Art highly suitable for anyone who wants to quickly learn the most effective way to defend against a physical assault. The word defence is actually counter-intuitive for Krav Maga, because the essence of the Martial Art is to immediately turn a reactive defence into a disabling attack.
Kickboxing (Frankston) is a highly physical and adrenaline fuelled Martial Art. It forms the foundation of all stand-up fighting and is highly aerobic by nature. Billy Manne, through Bob Jones Karate, was the first organisation to formally introduce Kickboxing into Australia many years ago. Since that time many accolades and Kickboxing champions have been developed through Billy Manne's gym.
Muay Thai otherwise known as Thai Boxing is the national sport of Thailand, and is a form of close combat that utilizes most of the entire body as a weapon. Muay Thai incorporates eight weapons of the human body - fists (2) elbows (2) kicks (2) and Knees (2) and a heavy use of grappling. It is a natural extension of sport kickboxing but because of the added weapons and grappling, it does require a different strategy.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a Martial Art that has been underrated for many decades. The traditional martial art practitioners had a hard time accepting the strength of Jiu Jitsu because its focus was the place that every fighter dreaded to be - on the ground. Through clever usage of leavers and conservation of energy the Jiu Jitsu practitioner has a huge advantage when the fight goes to the ground.

I did alot of research on Martial Arts clubs in Melbourne to make sure that I went to the right place for me, I was after a particular Soke.
After talking to a friend that train's he told me to look up Soke Billy Manne, so I did and I liked what I read and photos I saw, so I set up a time to meet him.When I first met Soke Billy I knew he was what I was looking for, I pass about 5 martial arts clubs to train with Soke Billy, and after training with him for abit now I know there's no turning back, best thing I've done in a long time.Soke Billy Manne is 150% True Martial Artist.

I looked around to find somewhere to start leaving maga and went for a trial class and signed up as soon as class finished. Very kind and helpful people here. Billy and Simone are nothing but amazing with everything they do. Very helpful and motivating for everyone in different levels of martial arts! Also have seen plenty of kids classes for the little ones and they certainly look like they love it too

Anyone who is thinking of Martial arts or MMA I highly recommend these guys.
After some challenging behaviours with my boy at school, he started training at BMMA over a year ago. Simone is an amazing sensei and my boy respects her and learns so much. Teaching him discipline, technique, manners and respect. Encouraging the kids in many other… aspects like reading, drinking more water, schooling, being kind, appreciation of others, learning to count in another language and much much more, exercising their brains and bodies. The improvement and feedback from school and teachers and at home

Fantastic people! So kind and helpful with me as a beginner. An extreme amount of knowledge and experience with martial arts and classes and training for everyone. I started only wanting to do 1 class and now I’m doing 3 and love every minute of it!

I just finished a self-defense class run by Simone that I highly recommend! Wonderful teachers and a supportive atmosphere. I learnt very practical moves that I know would help me in a dangerous situation and came away feeling empowered. My son also takes Karate here with Simone, and he has flourished under her teaching, she is wonderful with both children and adults. Can't recommend this place enough.

A fantastic martial arts centre that is run by the famous billy manne himself. The facility is quite large sporting two stories dedicated to specific martial arts (kickboxing, kravmaga, jiu jitsu, and karate). Have trained there for many years - and i have trained at many other facilities. This one is the best by far - Billy has extensive knowledge through real world experience - self defence for kids and adults as well. You cant go wrong at billy mannes martial arts.

Billy is a great leader with an indescribable passion for health and wellbeing a master in multiple styles of martial arts. He has a great ability to work with all levels as people progress through different stages of their journey. He has invested enormously in helping shape and change my life. I have entrusted not only my own training but also that of my children in his capable hands. Its a tremendous family feel gym where everyone knows each other name, would recommend to anyone.
