Carlos Machado Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Classes
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most dynamic contemporary martial arts in the world and our team at Carlos Machado Jiu-Jitsu Sunshine Coast is excited to bring it to you from the the curriculum of one one of the most senior and experienced names in BJJ in the world.
These classes will arm the practitioner with real-world self-defence capability in the instance that an altercation might end on the ground. It is a systematic ground-grappling martial art that dove-tails beautifully with Yoshinkan Aikido training.

- SATURDAYS – 10:30-11:30am
Shintō Musō Ryū Class
Open to adult students who demonstrate the desire to deepen their training and life experience in the ‘old ways’. Students in this very technical, traditional Japanese weapons class take on significant commitment through endless patience, sincerity and a willingness to learn things that are completely different from what they have done or learned in previous experiences. Furthermore, over time students in this class train with the expectation of developing a life based heavily on the Gojō – a value system with ‘benevolence’, ‘justice’, ‘etiquette’, ‘knowledge’ and ‘trust’ at its core.
