PEAK Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

PEAK Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Toormina was founded by João Paulo Portela Albuquerque and Filipe Gonçalves Wenceslau, both experienced competitors with deep roots in the sport. João Paulo, known as JP, began his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey in Fortaleza, Brazil in 1995, later training under Eduardo Rocha and earning his black belt from Paulo Polimeno at Flow Martial Arts on the Gold Coast. Filipe, originally from Brazil as well, developed his passion for BJJ after moving to Australia and training with JP, eventually achieving significant success in national competitions. Together, they set out to create a school that would bring high-quality, authentic BJJ to the Coffs Harbour region. The academy caters to a broad range of students, from complete beginners to advanced competitors. Adult classes are offered in both gi and no-gi formats, with a focus on strong fundamentals and steady progression. There are dedicated classes for teens and a separate women’s only session, reflecting a commitment to inclusive training opportunities. For younger students, the Pee Wee (4–7 years) and Junior (8–13 years) programmes focus on building discipline, confidence and physical skills in a structured but supportive setting. PEAK Brazilian Jiu Jitsu also runs open mat sessions where members can practise techniques, roll at their own pace, or prepare for competition. Drop-ins are welcome across all classes, making it straightforward for visitors or those new to the area to get involved. The academy’s approach is shaped by the founders’ belief in consistent practice and personal growth, both on and off the mats, and their determination to contribute to a strong BJJ community in the Coffs Harbour area.
