Northern Beaches Jiu-Jitsu Academy

Northern Beaches Jiu-Jitsu Academy was established in 2019 by local husband-and-wife team Jack and Gill Cox in Cromer, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The academy is a proud affiliate of the Pedro Sauer Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Association, reflecting a strong commitment to authentic Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and clear, structured instruction. Head coach Jack Cox, a black belt, leads most kids and adults classes, drawing on a background in karate and a passion for the technical and lifelong learning side of BJJ. Family values and community connection are central to the academy’s approach, with a focus on building both physical and mental resilience in students of all ages. The academy offers Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs for both kids (ages 4–15) and adults (16+), with a progression from fundamentals through to advanced levels. The adult curriculum includes gi fundamentals classes and dedicated gi sparring sessions, as well as regular open mat times for rolling and skill development. A six-week introductory program helps new adult students build a solid foundation before joining the broader timetable. Kids’ classes are split by age and experience, and boxing is also incorporated into the children’s program. There are also private coaching options available for individuals, teams, and workplaces, with flexible arrangements to suit different needs. Classes run throughout the week, including early morning sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays, afternoon and evening classes most weekdays, and Saturday morning training. The academy’s doors are open to drop-ins for adult classes and open mat, making it accessible for visitors and locals alike. With a team of coaches who are active in the local community and invested in the growth of every student, Northern Beaches Jiu-Jitsu Academy stands as a dedicated centre for practical self-defence, personal development and lifelong learning in Cromer.
