Our Story & Philosophy

At Prodigy MMA, we believe martial arts is more than just training - it’s a path to personal transformation.

Founded in 2011 with a vision to create a world-class martial arts academy in Sydney, we combine the traditions of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Boxing and MMA with modern coaching methods.

Our philosophy is simple: empower every student to build confidence, discipline and resilience, both on and off the mats.

Are you very strict on behaviour?

This question gets asked by a lot of traditional BJJ gym members.

We are pretty relaxed. There is no need to bow to us, we will not paint your fingernails pink if they are too long. If you have a question simply ask it during the lesson. 

We do ask that you are respectful of people you train with, for example if they ask you not to do a particular technique on them we expect you to be OK with this, they may be carrying an injury, old, tired, just don't feel like it, etc.

We are strict on safety , if someone taps or asks you to stop you need to stop immediately.

We are strict on hygiene, if your clothes need a wash before the lesson starts we will let you know. If you are sick please do not train, its not fair on others that you give them your cold/flu/black plague.

I am going away on holidays, can I stop my membership on a temporary basis?

Yes you can 'pause' your membership a minimum of (2) weeks and maximum of (8) weeks per pause period twice per year, requests need to be in writing.

You can complete a form in the gym or send us an email and we will pause your membership for the dates requested. NB strictly speaking this requires a minimum (1) weeks notice and cannot be retrospective. ie If you come back from a month break we cannot credit your membership.

What happens if I dont pay my fees?

If its a one-off event we simply ask you pay over the counter the next time you train If you are a repeat offender we may ask you to pay in advance.

If you simply stop paying without cancelling your membership, you are still liable under our terms and conditions of trade.

If you are suffering genuine hardship please come and talk to us so we can sort something out.

I don't like training with a particular individual, they are to rough/aggressive/sweaty/etc. What can I do?

If you prefer not to work with a particular individual you are free to say no, if they persist please talk to your instructor who will sort it out.

It's an MMA gym, why don't you want people to train hard and be aggressive?

There is a time and a place for high paced dynamic training. Not everyone in the gym is in their 20's and super fit. Most of our students don't want to compete, get hurt or be put through a lot of unnecessary pain.

If you cannot control yourself you will be asked to tone it down. If you persist you will be asked to leave the gym.

We offer sparring sessions and students can also agree amongst themselves what pace to work at, whether any moves or techniques are restricted and the like. 

We want students to train smart, look after themselves and each other and ensure people want to come back.

Do you offer private/group lessons?

Yes, please check directly with your coach for details including times and prices. Group lessons can be very cost effective, a group of 4 costs approx $20 per head for an hour session.

Do I have to wear your Gi's, rash vests, etc or can I bring my own?

We can certainly supply equipment for you at quite reasonable rates however plenty of our students purchase their own equipment outside of the gym. The only thing we ask is you put a Prodigy patch on your Gi when competing, they are available at the front desk.
