GCJ is an amazing BJJ academy with a truly family friendly environment. Whatever your reason for training, you’ll fit right in at GCJ. Ricky’s hands on, one-on-one approach makes all the difference he’s always happy to help you reach your goals, whether that’s competing at the highest level or just learning this incredible martial art.
The whole team, along with Ricky and Nikki, are at the top of Perth’s BJJ scene. It’s such a welcoming place that even my 3 year old daughter asks to come along when I train! I couldn’t recommend GCJ more highly.

GCJ is a great BJJ academy, I've learnt so much from technique to important fundamentals. The team is very friendly and knowledgeable, they're always happy to support you on your journey! 100% recommend for anyone interested in learning Brazilian jiu jitsu or just to learn something new and have some fun!
From the very first day I walked in, I felt completely welcomed. The coaches go above and beyond, and the support from everyone here is amazing. There’s such a genuine openness to share experiences and techniques, which makes training not only fun but really rewarding. Whether you’re brand new to BJJ or more advanced, this gym feels like the right place to be!
GCJ Academy is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, Nikki and Ricky make you feel right at home, they’re so warm and welcoming to everyone who walks through the door. Coach Ricky’s instruction is super easy to follow, encouraging, and he makes every class fun and engaging no matter your skill level. The gym itself is always spotless and well-maintained, which really shows the pride they take in the space. It's a great little spot with an amazing community, highly recommend checking it out! 😊
Absolutely amazing BJJ gym, have been meaning to get back to it for a while. My partner and I just got started again, and couldn’t speak highly enough of the team there.
Head Coach Ricky takes his time to break every step down so you really grasp and learn the WHAT and WHY you’re doing things.
Nikki is an absolute gun at answering questions and helping with any and all of my account and gi questions. She had organised the sign up, my partners gi, and my gi all within a few minutes of jumping in, was awesome! Really made us feel welcomed in!
Drew is always on the lookout, taking time out of his own training to ensure new guys like myself really grasp what’s being covered in the class.
Love it and very eager for more! 😁

Cannot recommend this gym highly enough. The team go out of the way to make you feel welcomed and comfortable which is awesome (especially as a girl in a male dominated sport). The focus is on quality, technical training and the coaches are fantastic!
I was looking for a school with a great friendly culture for my short term stay in Perth, and I'm so grateful for finding GCJ Academy and Professor Ricky. He is such a great instructor and teacher. He was able to teach and breakdown jiujitsu for a better and deeper understanding. The school has such a great atmosphere and the sessions were fun. please do yourself a favor and check out this school!
I started my Bjj journey only 8 weeks ago. As a 47 year old with a slipped disc i was hesitant at first. The team were very accomodating and i feel stronger in the body and the mind after a small amount of time.
Great BJJ gym and Great family friendly environment. Very friendly and safe place to train. I’ve trained under Professor Ricky for over 3 years, following him to GCJ Academy from a previous gym. Ricky’s dedication, professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. Thanks coach keep up the hard work. OSS!!
My daughter started with GJC a few months back, and her progress has been incredible! The whole team is amazing and they have such a close nit community, we love being here.
BJJ has helped her confidence so much, and I put part of that down to the caring nature of all coaches both on and off the mat.
We are so glad we gound GCJ Academy. We wouldnt go anywhere else and have told friends to come and join!

I have been training BJJ under Coach Ricky at GCJ Academy for a few months now and I absolutely love it, the gym is always clean and the atmosphere is fantastic. Both Nikki and Ricky are incredibly welcoming to everyone who walks through the door making it feel like a true community. Highly recommend
As a first time member of a Jiu Jitsu academy I couldn't be more impressed with GCJ. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere put me at ease. Head coach Ricky is incredibly knowledgeable and patient, taking the time to ensure everyone understands each technique. Joining GCJ was one of the best decisions I've made since having a baby, and I can’t wait to continue my journey here.
