Oceanside Jiu Jitsu

“Chose oceanside amongst the gyms listed in Christchurch because of the other 5 star reviews, could not have been happier with that decision. The gym is wonderfully decorated with inviting colors and prestigious medals all around. The staff was quick to greet me at the door, give me a tour, and direct me on the mat. The class was large, focused, and well run by the instructors with plenty of opportunity for questions. The rolling after the instruction was friendly and high level. Everyone was mindful of the mat space and mindful when applying submissions to foster a safe environment. The facility includes a weight room, sauna, ice bath, and cardio bikes. If I lived in New Zealand I’d be training at Oceanside Jiu Jitsu, and if you have the opportunity you should absolutely go in and take a class.”

“I’ve been at Oceanside Jiu Jitsu for 9 years and it’s been an amazing experience. The academy and coaches create a positive and supportive environment for all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, it’s a great place to grow, learn, and be part of a strong team. 🙌”

“There are many jiu-jitsu academies in the area, but Oceanside Jiu Jitsu stands out as the best choice, especially for children. Their children's program is the best I have ever seen, offering not only top-notch self-defense training but also a significant boost to kids' confidence. Professor Nat is exceptional, having spent years in Brazil mastering the art at its source. Coach Kirstin and the rest of the team are equally fantastic. Having moved away from SoCal, I have yet to find another academy that comes close to matching the quality of Oceanside Jiu Jitsu. I cannot recommend this place enough.”

“Just came in for a drop in class. Very warming and inviting gym. 10/10 would recommend for anyone”

“My daughter and I are both students of Oceanside Jiu Jitsu. Under the effective instruction of Professor Nat & Coaches, my daughter has consistently progressed in her understanding of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Jiu Jitsu has benefited her in other aspects - patience, respect, physical health and team work; just to name a few! Professor Nat is very knowledgeable! His expertise and experience are evident through his instruction! The team is awesome. Good training partners and good people all around. There are no egos; just good solid technique, people wanting to learn and train! I love that there are afternoon and evening classes. We recommend Oceanside Jiu Jitsu to anyone looking to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! P.S. 5 Stars for cleanliness too!!”
