About us

A modern dojo, rooted in tradition.

UTS Jitsu brings Sydney Jitsu's practical Japanese Jiu-Jitsu training to the UTS Ultimo campus, an accessible, welcoming space for students, professionals and anyone in the CBD looking for a martial art that actually works.

UTS Jitsu class training together

Our approach to self-defence

Our focus is practical self-defence through Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. By simulating encounters under pressure, we make sure students develop the skills to respond effectively and apply techniques when it matters most.

An inclusive community

Everyone trains together, whatever they have done before. Ask questions, go at your own pace.

Fitness through martial arts

Our sessions combine martial arts drills with strength and conditioning, improving your overall fitness, agility and endurance. Expect to be challenged, and leave sharper than you came in.
