About Box Hill JiuJitsu, Judo, Kung Fu Academy

Based in Box Hill South, this academy is part of the Australian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo & Chinese Boxing Federation of Instructors, a lineage founded in 1981. It offers a broader spread of traditional martial arts than most local clubs, combining grappling, throwing and striking systems under one roof for students who want depth rather than a single style.

Training covers Tai-jitsu Ryu jiu-jitsu, Kawaishi judo and Sil Lum Hung Kuen Chinese boxing, along with dedicated self-defence work. There is a junior pathway for younger children as well as general classes that take students from around age nine upward, so families can train across age groups and beginners can start without any prior experience.

For Box Hill South locals exploring martial arts, the academy is a welcoming entry point, with free trial classes and no appointment needed for a first visit. It suits parents seeking a confidence-building activity for kids, adults wanting practical self-defence and grappling skills, and anyone drawn to traditional Japanese and Chinese martial arts taught within an established federation.
