The Agoge (pronounced A - Go - Ge) is the brainchild of owner and head coach Justin Bennetts who after listening to one-to-many Joe Rogan podcasts decided to take a step back from his career as a Professional Engineer and start his own Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy. The Agoge is an ancient Greek term for the military training camp young Spartans were sent to to become future soldiers and defenders of their city.

The Coaches
Report
Justin began his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu journey in 2001 and fell in love with the technical problem solving nature of the art. Since then he has also spent considerable time training in Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling and mixed martial arts both in Australia and Canada. Justin is an avid jiu-jitsu competitor, winning gold at the 2016 Pan Pacs, but also likes to ensure his students get a solid base in self defense.
The Art of Jiu Jitsu
Report
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the fastest growing martial art in the world, It is a sport, self-defense system, and a fitness program. It has proven to be the most practical and effective self-defense system in the world. It relies on leverage and technique, rather than strength and size so you can defend yourself against much bigger, stronger attackers.

Get the best of both worlds and combine group classes with consistent private classes over a 10 week period this is the best value for money (20% saving) and the most accelerated way to learn BJJ.
