BJJ Hervey Bay is a family orientated centre for training in the grappling art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. BJJ Hervey Bay was founded by 2nd Degree Black Belt Jim Reid. Jim has a long history in Martial Arts and decided to open another BJJ Academy after moving to Hervey Bay in 2017. Jim founded BJJ Tasmania with Brad Lowe in 2010 and has brought the same ethos and mat culture to BJJ Hervey Bay. The Academy aims to provide the best quality coaching and bring top quality State, National and International instructors to BJJ Hervey Bay to improve and evolve BJJ in Hervey Bay. Jim is a multiple gold medallist in National and International competitions. The Academy is open to all wanting to learn or improve their Jiu Jitsu skills. Jim is proud to be part of the Maromba Academia Australia Jiu Jitsu Team with coach Thiago Stefanutti. At BJJ Hervey Bay we teach complete BJJ including throws, takedowns, ground fighting and the very important self-defence aspects of the Art, Jim is very passionate that all students can use BJJ for self-defence. Our club members work as a team to make learning Jiu Jitsu a fun and enjoyable experience we encourage questions at the appropriate times and like to hear members laughing and enjoying the sessions. We have a few rules which can be seen under the club rules tab on this website.
