Bravos Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Bravos Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in O’Connor is led by head coach Rodrigo Giraldes, a black belt since 2011 under Adriano Silva “Grifo.” Rodrigo brings more than 25 years of experience in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, having coached in Australia for over nine years and developed a training methodology that has produced world-level competitors. Under his guidance, Bravos BJJ has become a fixture in WA’s competition scene, earning multiple team titles at state and national level, including gold at the IBJJF Worlds and Pan Pacific Championships. Training at Bravos is structured for steady progression, starting with a dedicated beginner program that takes students from first steps on the mat through to blue belt, covering fundamental BJJ techniques and self-defence. Beyond the basics, the academy offers all-levels classes, advanced sessions, and specific competition training for those preparing for tournaments. No-Gi and wrestling for BJJ are also part of the weekly schedule, alongside strength and conditioning. Kids and teens can join age-specific classes (5–11 and 12–16 years), with an emphasis on discipline, respect, and building confidence. The O’Connor facility is purpose-built for martial arts, featuring premium Zebra mats, over 200 square metres of training space, a weightlifting area, and amenities including showers and a parents’ area. The team of black belt instructors—each with their own competitive credentials—provide hands-on coaching and ensure personal attention in every session. Bravos welcomes a broad mix of students, from recreational hobbyists to serious competitors, with private lessons available for those wanting extra focus.
