About Clifton Hill Jiujitsu

Clifton Hill Jiujitsu is a not-for-profit community Brazilian jiu-jitsu club training at George Knott Athletic Field in Clifton Hill. It runs as a grassroots club rather than a commercial academy, with a clear focus on accessible, low-cost grappling for the local community and a genuinely welcoming attitude toward newcomers.

Students repeatedly highlight how friendly and knowledgeable the coaching is, describing an environment that is easy to walk into whether you are completely new to the mats or an experienced grappler looking for a casual roll. Sessions cover the fundamentals of jiu-jitsu in a supportive, no-ego setting, and drop-ins are openly encouraged, so there is no pressure to lock yourself into a long commitment before you have tried it.

Because the club is community-run and not-for-profit, the cost to train is kept deliberately low and remains one of the most affordable ways to learn jiu-jitsu in inner Melbourne. For anyone in Clifton Hill curious about grappling, or a visiting practitioner wanting a relaxed session, this is a refreshingly down-to-earth and inclusive place to roll.
