Cia Paulista Australia BJJ - Maribyrnong - Maidstone (VIC)

1 /5 Leslie Smeaton: Avoid this place at all cost. The gym is dirty, smells bad and has zero structure when it comes to learning - especially for the kids. Belts and stripes are handed out just for showing up, they are probably the only club around who charges kids for a worthless piece of paper they call a certificate. Even if you choose not to take it, they still direct debit you. The owners face is plastered everywhere on the building like a shrine, and the focus is more self promotion than students development. Grading days are just staged opportunities to build the clubs image - not to reward real progress. This gym has all the red flags of a cult.

5 /5 Tom D: Our kid started at four and really loves it, is very proud of his belt and enjoys hanging out with all the other kids. Carlos has been great with him and we are enjoying the community.

5 /5 Isaac Lima: I’ve been training at Companhia Paulista and from the very first day I felt welcomed — not only by head coach Carlos and the coaches, but also by the other training partners. It’s an environment where respect, support, and technical development truly go hand in hand. Whether youre starting or looking to refine your skills, it’s a place where you can grow with confidence. Highly recommended.

5 /5 tulziii7: My kids have recently joined CIA and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. The instructors are not only skilled in their craft but also incredibly patient with the kids. The classes strike a perfect balance between fun and learning, fostering discipline and confidence. Im impressed with the positive impact its had on my childrens physical fitness and self-esteem. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Bernardo Pitel: Português is a world class of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, beautiful and clean academy, everyone is very welcome, i highly recommended his school .
