The Rilion Gracie (Gracie Elite) Jiu Jitsu Academies are the premier academies for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Gracie Jiu Jitsu has been proven to be the most effective form of self defence ever developed. Jiu Jitsu, however, is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, body type or physical ability. By using leverage, balance and technique, a weaker individual can defeat themselves against stronger, more physically capable opponents.

Nobody decides to quit jiu-jitsu. They just miss a week.

Then work gets busy. Then the knee plays up.

Then it’s been a month, and walking back through the door feels harder than any training session ever did.

That’s the part nobody talks about. The hardest skill in this sport isn’t a technique, it’s coming back when life gets loud.

So if that’s you right now, here’s the whole deal: there’s no speech waiting for you.

Nobody’s going to ask where you’ve been. You get changed, you step on the mat, and you’re back.

Your spot is still here.

DM us and we’ll send you this week’s timetable.

“So proud to see Kris win the Pan Pacific Championships in his first competition as a black belt, and it’s one of the biggest tournaments in Australia. It’s even better to see that kind of success right out of his first competition as Black Belt.

Kris has been training with us since he was a white belt, and this kind of loyalty is really rare nowadays. Over the years, I’ve watched him win at the top competitions in Australia at every belt level. Today, I had the pleasure of watching him win as a black belt.

Well done, Kris!”

People come for the workout. They notice something else first.

The meeting that used to rattle them doesn’t.

The tight moment on the road feels slower.

Training nights end with a different kind of tired.

Jiu jitsu asks you to solve problems while uncomfortable, again and again, until calm becomes a habit.

Never trained?

Book your free trial class at Gracie Elite Australia, Pakenham or Cranbourne West.

Four-nil down. Forty seconds on the clock.

His eight-year-old son watching from the stands.

Mitch Rogers decided there was no point playing it safe.
A sweep, a reversal, an arm that came out too far.

He tapped Luis Rodriguez with ten seconds left and walked off a World Champion. Male Brown Belt, Master 36, Medium Heavy No-Gi. SJJIF Worlds in Tokyo, 7,000 competitors.

Mitch walked through our doors in 2018 with no background in the sport. White belt to brown, nearly eight years, under Professor Jhunior.

He reckons the secret was turning up.

And the gold isn’t even the best part of it. Bailey competed in Tokyo too.

“I got to do it with my eight-year-old son, which was pretty cool; to win was the cherry on top.”

Proud of you, Mitch.

Two days. One legend. New black belts.

Hosting Hélio “Soneca” was more than a seminar, it was a reminder of where all of this comes from.

The details he showed, the way he teaches, the respect he brings to the mat… that’s the standard we chase every single class.

And then the moment that made the weekend complete: and received their black belts.

Years of showing up, tapping, learning and coming back, tied around the waist in one knot. Congratulations!

Thank you, . Thank you, team.

Happy Father’s Day to every dad who trades the couch for the mats.

The best lesson you’ll ever teach your kid isn’t a technique, it’s showing up.

See you on the mat 🥋

And the new NO GI WORLD CHAMPION IS Mitchell Rogers.
Congratulations on this extraordinary achievement, champ! Your dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment have brought you to this pinnacle of success. We are honored to have supported you on this remarkable journey, and we look forward to witnessing the continued excellence you will undoubtedly bring to the sport.
