Synergy Method Wollongong Reviews

Daniel Bunting 2025.12.02

     

I’ve been training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for 8 years and have spent time in most gyms across the Illawarra. Without a doubt, Synergy Method Wollongong offers something truly special. The coaching is world-class, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the camaraderie makes every session feel like training with family. Recently, my 12-year-old daughter came along to watch me train. She was so inspired by the supportive, family-like environment that she decided to return to the sport after a 3-year break. That speaks volumes about the culture here, it’s not just about technique, it’s about belonging. If you’re looking for a place to grow, challenge yourself, and be part of a genuine community, whether for yourself or your child, I couldn’t recommend Synergy Method Wollongong more highly.

My daughter absolutely loves training at Synergy. her confidence and understating of jiu jitsu has improved so much under the guided instruction of Grant and the team, and she’s excited for class every week. I’m always impressed by the professionalism and passion the coaches bring to the mats, and their ability to make each class fun and engaging. Highly recommend Synergy to anyone thinking of trying jiu jitsu!

I’m a 42 year old dad that has always wanted to give Jiu Jitsu a crack, but was nervous, time poor and worried about injury I’m now over a year in and the only regret is not finding Synergy Method sooner. As you expect, the Jiu Jitsu is world class but what makes it special is the community Grant and Jen have built. The gym is literally stacked with the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Learning Jiu Jitsu is a challenge but, the Jitz family at Synergy take you through it carefully with patience and support. If you are on the fence, just have a crack, you’ve found the right spot and you won’t regret it. Jump in and find a bit of calm in the chaos, that carries benefit into your everyday life.

For my two young daughters, I saw BJJ as an important life skill. Something to keep them safe if they were ever in a position they didn’t want to be in, and perhaps didn’t have the physical strength to escape from it - BJJ is a tool they could use, but hope they never need to. My daughters are shy, and that means they need to feel safe before they feel they can be themselves. So, I was looking for a place that could deliver on both the skill and the right environment - extraordinarily, Synergy has delivered on both, and more. The girls surprisingly WANT to go to BJJ, they see it as something fun not an obligation or a pain. What Synergy has created is not isolated to one person either (although it’s started from the top ) - each instructor is friendly, is empathetic, is kind , respectful and skilled . Your child doesn’t get lost, your child is safe and happy, and your child learns. If Synergy could be replicated to other parts of the education system or other disciplines - we would see some remarkable leaps in capabilities. If you have kids and are looking somewhere they can be challenged in BJJ but never feel compromised or unsafe, where the environment is built for them to flourish under respect and fun - this is the one. Do it.

The training is very personalized and kid focused. The trainers are extremely patient with the kids, and they take time to bring new kids to speed as well as balance it with strict rules and discipline, keeping it safe for all. Of importance is the inclusion of fun games, at the start and end of each training session, which my son always looks forward to. He has gained confidence and noticeable self control especially when he's relating with his siblings and cousins. I highly recommend it for any parents considering Synergy Method Wollongong.

Synergy Method is the nicest and best gym around, the facility's are second to none. A few things came into consideration when I was looking for a jujitsu gym to join and the fact they have ice bath, sauna and full gym facilities was what drew me in, once there the people and coaches and staff are very welcoming and friendly and made you feel like family. Grant and Jen have done an amazing job setting this gym up and running it. I highly recommend synergy Method

This is an excellent environment for anyone looking for BJJ training for their kid: safe, supportive, and encouraging. My son has been training here for years, and his confidence and coordination have grown immensely as a result. The team at Synergy, led by Grant and Jenn, take great care to make it a positive and rewarding experience for all.

My daughter has been doing Judo/jujitsu for almost 3years. We have found the best Judo school, but struggled with finding a decent jujitsu club. That was until we found Synergy. The level of skills the kids have there is unlike any other i have been to. The environment is calm and friendly and there isn’t any teenage drama that i have witnessed over the years at other places. And the biggest bonus of all, is that i can enjoy a sauna/ ice bath while she trains. Or we enjoy one together afterwards. The bathrooms are really nice also. The whole place is a vibe.

From day one, this gym has been nothing but supportive and encouraging. Starting bjj can seem intimidating and daunting especially for women but the coaches and training partners create such a welcoming environment that it’s made stepping into something as challenging as jiu jitsu feel a lot less nerve wracking. I really appreciate how friendly everyone is, it makes a huge difference, especially when you’re new. One of the things I love most is how many women train here. It’s empowering to be surrounded by strong, skilled women on the mats, and it’s clear that everyone is here to help each other grow. I’m so glad I found this place!

I enrolled my 7 year old son in the kids Jui Jitsu class about 6 months ago and it has been purely fantastic. The whole team have been professional and welcoming and have created an environmental that caters to all levels. My son loves his sessions each week and is gaining great friends as well as life skills. Update: My now 9 year old still loves it, my 5 year old daughter has also signed up and we cannot be happier with Grant and the whole Synergy Method team.

I’ve been going to Synergy for years as a gym member and what Jenn and Grant have built is second to none. I have both my kids in the jiu jitsu academy and their knowledge, care and commitment to be better are the reasons why I choose Synergy every time. The culture and facilities keep me coming back! 🙌🙌
