“This is a great system for self defense, delivered by the fantastic Tim Jones. After every session I have left behind a tonne of sweat from a great workout and gained knowledge and confidence. I highly recommend Black Cockatoo Martial Arts and Tim to anyone of any age looking too improve fitness and learn a functional martial art.”

“I love the supportive and safe environment at Black Cockatoo with no compromise on skill. There is an excellent focus on technique and sustainable training, with a supportive group of team mates. I’ve trained at various gyms since 2009 and the BJJ at Black Cockatoo with Tim and the attention to detail is brilliant.”

“I’ve been training with Tim for 5 years and never looked back. Tim creates a safe environment and gives you all the tools you need to learn and practice martial arts, but more importantly, have fun doing it.”

“I started training six months ago as an alternative to the gym (I hate gyms). In those six months, not only have I become a lot fitter and stronger but I’ve also learnt a useful, confidence building martial art that is completely ego free. The way Tim approaches teaching and training is a huge draw card - he’s a friendly, good natured guy who just wants to help you achieve your goals, not prove how tough he is.”

“An excellent environment to train martial arts! A variety of options are available for my busy schedule, and it’s a safe and supportive environment.”

“I tried a number of boxing and martial arts clubs but none of them seemed right for me until I joined Black Cockatoo. It has provided me not only with self defense skills but with core fitness and motivation for training. Tim creates a fun environment to train in and caters for all abilities so I have never felt under pressure, making it a great place to learn and achieve.”

“The Private Sessions are fantastic! They fit around my busy work and social life, and are a great, practical way to learn a martial art that can be tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle.”

“Tim is an excellent coach and I always learn so much at training. As a long time client, I have learned to do things both physically and mentally that I would have previously only dreamed of. A great environment to train in!”

“With renewed interest in my personal fitness, I wanted to test my strengths and ability but not with a conventional work out. With the Private Sessions I was able to work around my lifestyle and the training was adjusted to what I wanted to do. Overall it’s been brilliant! I have gained loads of confidence and mental strength, and found the sessions very enjoyable.”

“I have been delighted with the results. I’m physically and visibly fitter, more self confident and get to have loads of fun every week.”
