Balance Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Our aim is to be a lighthouse for the community. Our community is built on the foundation of support and connection. The words R U OK? are often spoken daily within our walls. We know how a conversation can change a life and we have seen it first hand.

We have made our RUOK? 4-Hour Roll a staple on our annual calendar- maybe our most important event of the year- to spread their message and help prevent su***de. To show people, that you aren't alone.

On Saturday September 12th we will have people on the mats rolling from 9-1pm with some individuals rolling for the gruelling 4-Hours.

On any given night- we are asking RUOK? But on RUOK? Day we bring extra attention to this powerful conversation starter because-

About 8 people take their own lives in Australia every day.

For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt su***de.

89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.

Let's work together to change these numbers.

R U OK?’s vision is of a world where we are all connected and protected from su***de.

Their mission is to inspire everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and support anyone struggling with life.

By inspiring people to take the time to ask, “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people who are struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about su***de.

Thank you so much for your support- together we will make a difference.

We're counting on your support through donations to help us make a difference. So come for some rolls or hang out & watch, grab some snacks & enter our raffle, you might even win a prize!

To donate on the day- show up ready to roll or spectate with a cash or card donation.

IN-HOUSE KIDS COMPETITION

Saturday August 1st @ 12:30pm

Our kids have been preparing for this in class week after week, and we're excited to see them put their skills to the test. If your child is keen to take on the challenge, let us know over the next few weeks.

For many of our young grapplers, this will be their first experience of competition. It's a fantastic opportunity to challenge themselves in a familiar, supportive environment alongside the teammates they train with every week. It's also a great stepping stone towards competing within the wider Jiu-Jitsu community.

Real growth happens when we step outside our comfort zones. Every child who chooses to compete is showing courage, resilience, and a willingness to learn—qualities that matter far more than any medal. We're incredibly proud of them for being brave enough to give it a go.

Two teams. One match each. Prizes to be awarded.

Snack bar & entertainment provided. Adults Team Event to follow. Come cheer them on!

BALANCE KIDS GRADING JUNE 20TH

💚 Littles (4-7y) 10am

🩵 Mids (7-11y) 1045am

💙 Teens (11-15y) 1130am

Gradings are an opportunity to recognise and celebrate your children's efforts and perseverance. It takes real determination to keep going when things get challenging—and challenges are a natural part of the journey.

Week after week, after long school days, they continue to show up, put in the work, and overcome both physical and mental obstacles. Gradings allow us to acknowledge & celebrate those steps forward.

Parents, your support plays a huge part in making this possible. Your encouragement, commitment, and guidance help them reach these milestones. Their success is built not only on their hard work, but also on the support they receive from you.

At grading, we celebrate all of it—their effort, progress, and achievements, as well as the important role you play in helping them succeed.

Invites will be handed out starting next week. As always gradings are white gi only🥋
