Matt and his team at Beyond Grappling are patient, kind and understanding to the needs of children. They take into consideration their level and the classes are fun and engaging, which makes it easier for kids to learn. Taking my daughters to Judo was one of the best things I could’ve done for them. The Adult classes are also great with a high level of experience on offer from both the coaches and other members. Hands down one of the most professional clubs in the ACT.

I highly recommend Beyond Grappling Judo! My son recently started attending classes there and he absolutely loves it. The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and make the classes both fun and challenging. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the community of fellow students is welcoming and supportive. If you're looking for a great Judo program, Beyond Grappling Judo is definitely worth checking out

Really good and a must visit for sure. Make sure you come visit!

Our son started judo with Matt as his first martial arts experience after lots of positive recommendations. He enjoys every session and has grown more confident in himself. Matt is a great instructor who is patient, knowledgable and clear in giving instructions. I highly recommend Beyond Grappling Club to people of all ages.

As both a student and a coach at beyond grappling, having trained at over 20 clubs both locally and internationally, I can confidently say that this club has one of the best environments to learn. Matt fully understands the values of judo and does not fail to consistently instill these into his students. This club not only excels at producing top quality athletes, but also has a strong focus on character development.

Matt D'Aquino is one of the best coaches I've worked with in any sport. His enthusiasm and ability to teach and inspire have helped him set up a really great training environment. Always super welcoming and non confrontational, I've never had anything but positive experiences at the club, or with any of the students or coaches.

My girls do Judo at Beyond Grappling Club & it is a fun, friendly & relaxed environment for kids to learn. Matt & his team are very professional & my girls are very comfortable there. Would highly recommend this club to anyone!

We love the kids Judo classes!!! Since starting, our son has gained so much self confidence that he is putting himself out there more and our daughter has gained some self control and coordination 😊 All the instructors are wonderful and we feel the classes are perfectly suited to the age & ability of the children. If you are looking for an awesome, after school, year round activity then I strongly recommend you check out Beyond Grappling Club 😊
