CAIRNS PREMIER MARTIAL ARTS ACADEMY FOR BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU, MUAY THAI AND MMA.
Through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu , Muay Thai and MMA martial arts we develop mentally and physically resilient children and adults and stimulate the pursuit of one’s best self both on and off the mats. The ripple effect…we help create a better community.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is designed to equip a physically smaller or weaker individual with an effective method of defending against a larger and stronger attacker. The fight is taken to the ground and the opponent controlled and ultimately submitted by joint locks or chokes. It requires an intense amount of focus and strategy.
Muay Thai
Muay Thai is known as, “the art of eight limbs.” This refers to the eight points of contact used including the fists, elbows, knees, and shins. In Thai culture, Muay Thai is closely linked with Buddhism and the martial art itself emphasizes values such as respect, humility, self-control, and compassion.

Testimonials
“If you’re thinking about joining Fusion, here’s what you need to know:
1. The team is 100% professional.
2. Patience is key in their approach.
3. They focus on the individual student and groups with highly developed and experienced trainers.
4. My son went from not knowing how to punch or kick to respecting his power and training partners. (In both BJJ & Muay Thai)
5. Recently, he was named Member of the Month for June. When I asked how he felt, he said, “Dad, it took me nearly nine months to get this award, and it feels great.” This made him understand why they say (at the end of each session), “Hard work pays off.” Thank you, Team Fusion, for helping my son grow & develop his confidence!”

“I’ve been mostly for Muay Thai and Ethan and Konrad are both professional, skilled and pay close attention to what you can improve with a very supportive friendly energy, as well as everyone training there is very friendly and welcoming. The BJJ classes are great and much the same, welcoming and attentive to improvement. The gym is all round a great place to train whether fresh or experienced with a reasonable price for all you’re getting! Can’t get enough and officially obsessed!”

“When my son 12, joined over a year ago through strong advise from a close family friend that Fusion was the best martial arts school in Cairns, he was hooked after his first lesson. His words to me in the car home were “ Dad….. can I do that every day?” He’s gone onto loving his BJJ and MMA classes so much he’s doing up to 6 classes a week. Along with also entering competitions locally and down south as a Fusion team member, he has made great friendships and improved so much. It’s even inspired his mum to start. Fusion Fight and Fitness is the premium martial art school in Cairns..”

“Would absolutely recommend coming in and trying the classes out. They have a friendly atmosphere inside, perfect for people like myself who have never trained before and who might be a little bit intimidated at the thought of trying out martial arts. Great coaches who possess a wealth of knowldege and are enthusiastic in helping you improve as well as great training partners who are very encouraging to us newbies.
Plus once you get addicted to training they are open 7 days a week with multiple classes a day for you to get some hard work in every day you want!!“
