Also known as BJJ, Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art based on ground-fighting, with the goal to find a joint lock or choke hold to make the opponent 'tap out'.
Throws and takedowns - everything you need to transition between standing and the mat. Wrestling is a key element in any grappling or MMA competitors arsenal.
Hands down the best MMA gym I’ve been to! Everyone is really supportive and the coaches do a fantastic job helping you get settled in no matter your experience and fitness level :)
Awesome MMA Club! Was new to the sport and felt very welcomed by the instructing team and people there! Cannot say enough great things about the club. Great team, awesome instructors and amazing people and environment for both new and advanced MMA peps. Definitely recommend the place and will go back when I'm back from overseas!
Went to my first week and I have been hooked ever since!!!!! Awesome team, great support if your new and your surrounded by people who will push you when your not. Get in there!
Top notch gym and clean facilities. Friendly staff and members, not to mention in a prime location. I enjoy making the trip down from Auckland just to train and compete with these guys. Highly recommend.
Great environment. Everyone is really friendly and facilities/staff are professional. Wide range of different martial arts and fitness classes. Also has weights and cardio equipment which is a plus. My fitness and confidence has skyrocketed since starting at Core. Cheers guys!
Great people and great facilities. CORE MMA is probably one of the best MMA facilities in NZ. Definitely worth a visit, lovely team of people and great environment to train.

Fantastic experience: Wicked gym and awesome instructors. If you want to up skill your mexican ground karate this is the place to go
Negative experience: Extreme mistreatment when I tried to cancel my membership. Terrible communication and despite my cancellation they continued to charge me. I would recommend spending your time and money elsewhere unless you want to get a ring from a debt collection agency more than 6 months after you've cancelled your membership.
Hi Abby - are you sure you got the right facility? I’ve just checked our records and there’s no memberships listed under your name, nor any previous correspondence.Debitsuccess are the largest gym membership provider in the country and our membership terms are the same as those standardised NZ wide.In any case, we’d be more than happy to make things right if there’s been some genuine miscommunication regarding membership.Feel free to contact us at [email protected] and we’ll see what we can do to resolve any issues.

Fantastic experience: By far, the largest and best mma club in New Zealand for all ages, sizes and genders. My boys enjoy the bjj for kids and parkour. I go for weights and bjj. This facility is huge, two rings for Boxing and MMA and a giant mat for martial arts. Couches for parents to relax while their kids to their moves. There a store selling mma apparel with an awesome variety and high quality. Toilets for the users. In the parkour area, two gigantic jumping areas and heaps of blocks to climb and jump. For those willing to push and pull weights, run in the treadmills or burn calories in the stationary bikes, you can have it all in the rear of the gym. The best is that it is all included in the weekly fee. Family pack got an amazing cost benefit. Come and see! And free parking in the facility, with some bike racks if you come riding yours.
