What We Stand For

Our Core Values

These aren't just words on a wall — they're the principles that guide everything we do at Platinum Jiu Jitsu.

Skills & Application

Learn. Apply. Refine. Repeat.

Jiu Jitsu isn't theory — it's a living, breathing art that you perfect through practice. We teach you techniques, then give you the reps and live training to make them second nature. You'll learn the movements, apply them under pressure, and refine them through coaching feedback. This is how mastery is built.

The Martial Artist

Forge your identity on and off the mat.

Jiu Jitsu shapes more than your body — it shapes who you are. The discipline, resilience, and confidence you build on the mats carry into every area of your life. You'll become calmer under pressure, more focused on your goals, and more capable than you ever thought possible. This is about building a better you.

Competition

The harder the test, the stronger the result.

Real courage and confidence aren't built in comfort — they're forged through challenge. Whether you're competing on the mats or just showing up when life gets hard, we believe in testing yourself, pushing limits, and growing through adversity. Competition isn't just about tournaments — it's about becoming the best version of yourself.
How It All Began

Our Story

Platinum Jiu-Jitsu opened its doors in Oxenford in June 2024 with a clear mission: to create a world-class Jiu Jitsu gym on the Gold Coast that's built differently.

We're not a franchise pumping out cookie-cutter programs. We're not a “fighter factory” obsessed with cage wars. And we're not stuck teaching outdated techniques from the 1990s.

We're a coaching-first academy that believes in modern Jiu Jitsu, structured progression, and zero-ego culture.

We exist to help everyday people — busy professionals, parents, kids, complete beginners — build confidence, fitness, and skills that last a lifetime.

Since opening, we've grown a large community who train not because they're locked into contracts, but because they genuinely love being here. That's the culture we've built — supportive, disciplined, and focused on real progress.

Our gym is designed for people who want to be better. Whether you're 5 years old learning coordination and confidence, or 50 years old getting back into shape and learning self-defence, you belong here.

We teach modern Jiu Jitsu from headlocks to footlocks — premium No-Gi and Gi taught with a clear belt progression system, gradings twice a year, and coaches who actually care about your development.

This is Platinum Jiu Jitsu.

Premium training. No lock-ins. No BS. Just results.

The Beginning

My Jiu Jitsu journey started in 2010. I was 18 years old and got king-hit at a party. I remember lying there thinking, “I never want to feel this helpless again.” So after I healed, I walked into a Jiu Jitsu gym with one goal: learn how to defend myself.

The Discovery

What I found was so much more than self-defence. Jiu Jitsu became my obsession. The problem-solving in live rolling, the mental battle of pushing through exhaustion — it taught me discipline, resilience, humility, and how to stay calm under pressure.

The Challenge

In 2020, I suffered a serious training accident that left me with lifelong injuries. For the first time since I started, I thought about quitting. The pain was real. The limitations were real. And the thought of never training the same way again was devastating.

But quitting wasn't an option.

Jiu Jitsu had given me too much to walk away when things got hard. So I adapted. I learned to train smarter, not just harder. I focused on technique over power, longevity over ego. And I came back stronger mentally than I ever was physically.

“It's not about what you can do when everything's working — it's about who you become when you refuse to quit.”

The Vision

After years in corporate sales, I made the decision to go all-in on what I loved. In June 2024, I opened Platinum Jiu Jitsu in Oxenford with one mission: to share this life-changing art with as many people as possible.

I wanted to build a gym that was different — No-Gi as the focus, coaching-first, beginner-friendly, and built on respect and real progress, not egos and outdated traditions.

Whether you're a parent looking to build confidence in your kids, a professional wanting to get fit and learn self-defence, or someone who just wants to feel stronger and more capable — I want to help you get there.

Jiu Jitsu changed my life. Let me help it change yours.

See you on the mats,

Jason
