Commonly known as BJJ, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is considered to be the world's fastest growing and most effective Martial Art. It featured heavily in the early UFC competitions where it proved that a smaller, weaker person could defeat a larger and stronger person using the skills and techniques taught to you during our BJJ lessons.
We cater for all students from kids (eight years and older) to adults. Most people consider this the appropriate age to start training Kids in MMA. Children in this age group have good vocabulary and are able to listen and take directions pretty well. Our instructors are great at working with and helping kids develop into better versions of themselves.
Kickboxing is a Japanese Martial Arts developed during the 1960's. It combines effective techniques from Karate, boxing and Muay Thai. It became popular in Australia and is considered to be a devastating striking based form of Self-Defence. Our classes are suitable for Adults, Teen and kids aged 8 years and older.
At Concept Jiu Jitsu & MMA Pakenham we have specially designed out kids martial arts programs to suit your children. Our coaches are trained in various Martial Arts including Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Kickboxing, Boxing, Karate, Tae Kwon Do, Wrestling and MMA. Our coaches are also trained in First Aid and have working with children's qualifications.

I started training Jiu jitsu with them earlier in the year after trying a few different gyms around. I found them to be the most welcoming of them all, as well as hardworking and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!

Been coming here for 2 months now and have absolutely loved it!! I started off just training for BJJ but ended up joining the other classes too because of how friendly the environment and coaches were!

My boys have been coming for 4 weeks now and absolutely love it! One is 6 years old and the other 8 years old. My youngest can be quite withdrawn in groups but is flourishing at Concept. All of the coaches are great with the kids and take the time needed to show them how to do things properly. Coach Vee has been fantastic for my youngest and has… helped him to gain his confidence quickly. Both boys have progressed really well in the 4 weeks and really enjoy it. It is also good value for money with multiple classes throughout the week that they can go to. Awesome place and a nice friendly

There's a reason their average review score is 5.0 The staff are super friendly, the environment is very inclusive, and the trainers know what they're doing and seem to enjoy their work. There are members who fight competitively, and members who can't run more than 15 metres (me). Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get into Kickboxing, MMA, Jiu Jitsu, etc.

This is a great place to train. Suitable for Young Children up to Adults. There are a number of family's who train here and the gym is in fact run by a family. Well worth checking out if you are looking at developing your children due to bullying or just making them safer and more coordinated. A large variety of people here.

I would like to start off by saying that deciding to start learning Brazilian jujitsu has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.
I have only been training at concept for 4 weeks now and I can already feel the benefits towards my health and fitness increase dramatically in such a short time.
Upon arriving at Concept to have a sit down and just watch a lesson I was greeted with such open arms that the coaches enticed me into joining in, and without hesitation I joined the group students and they were all so welcoming towards me being part of the class.
Over the past 4 weeks I have grown

The coaches here are fantastic. They support the kids (and adults) in such a positive way. My son has come leaps and bounds since beginning with this club. His self confidence has improved 10 fold. He has found all participants respectful and supportive. A great club.

The coaches are very skilled and wonderful with kids. They make you feel like family, my son's attitude, and self esteem has improved so much since training here. They incorporate their anti-bullying program in the training sessions, this gives the children the necessary skills when facing difficult social situations. The venue and prices are great as well. :-)

This is a great place for the whole family to train. The biggest and best kids classes in the State. Great Adult classes with a very technical instructor. I have experienced a strong family environment at this gym and you should come down and see for yourself. Everyone feels welcomed here. Kind Regards Ozzie:)
