Braddah Jiu Jitsu Artarmon

Braddah Jiu Jitsu Artarmon was founded in 2019 by Lucas Sachs and Martin Melecchi, two Brazilian black belts with more than three decades of experience between them. Drawing on their own journeys through the art, they set out to build a Sydney academy focused on real learning and continuous self-improvement, where respect and support matter more than ego or intimidation. The head instructors have strong competition backgrounds—Lucas Sachs is a 5th degree black belt with titles at Abu Dhabi World Pro and IBJJF championships, while Martin Melecchi and the rest of the coaching team bring a wealth of technical and competitive experience to the mats. The academy’s approach is built on structured Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training, with a teaching method that puts fundamentals first and encourages steady progress for all students. Beginners start with a dedicated Foundation class, designed to build confidence and technical basics in a safe, step-by-step way. As students develop, they can move through All Levels and Intermediate/Advanced classes, with techniques evolving in complexity to suit each stage. The gym welcomes both gi and no-gi training, and runs comprehensive programs for adults and children. Kids’ classes include both gi and no-gi options, with a focus on building discipline, confidence, and practical self-defence skills. The Braddah team has a strong commitment to coaching children, drawing on years of experience and a genuine passion for student growth. The Artarmon location is one of several across Sydney, and members are able to train at any Braddah academy, reflecting the school’s “one team, one standard” philosophy.
