Dromana Grappling Academy

Welcome to Dromana Grappling Academy, where passion meets proficiency in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Founded by Adam and Jason, seasoned practitioners with over 30 years of combined experience in BJJ and grappling, our academy stands as a beacon of technical excellence and competitive spirit.

As secondary teacher-qualified professionals and Aviation Rescue FireFighters, we bring a unique blend of discipline, safety, and skill development to our classes. Moreover, our commitment to ongoing education is evident, with Jason's additional expertise as an Osteopath and Adam's Bachelor of Health Science degree.

Having competed and trained both nationally and internationally, we deeply understand the dedication required to excel in this sport. Jason's journey began under the tutelage of John Donehue of JD Jiu Jitsu and MMA and continues under the esteemed guidance of Marcelino Freitas of Marcelino BJJ. Along the way, Jason's knowledge has been enriched by insights from esteemed Melbourne-based instructors like Cris Brown of Adrenalin MMA and Thiago Stefanutti of Absolute MMA currently Onya Martial Arts SP, along with countless other great mentors and training partners, past and present for whom we are very grateful too.

At Dromana Grappling Academy, we foster a supportive and encouraging environment, catering to individuals of all ages and skill levels. Whether you aspire to compete on a world stage or simply seek to hone your skills in a fun and inclusive setting, join us as we strive to become one of the premier grappling clubs in our area.
