The holiday season is nearly here, and if you’re looking for the perfect gift for the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) practitioner or enthusiast in your life, we’re here to help!
At Locals Jiu Jitsu Zetland, we know how important BJJ is to our growing community, so we’ve put together a list of thoughtful, easy-on-the-pocket and practical gifts that any grappler will appreciate. Whether they’re a beginner or a seasoned competitor, these gifts will improve their training experience and show your support for their passion.
1. Classes at Locals Jiu Jitsu Zetland
This is one of the easiest gifts you can give: book and pay for classes at Locals Jiu Jitsu Zetland. With this thoughtful gesture, you help your son, daughter, brother, or husband immerse themselves in incredible BJJ programs in Sydney. We cater to different skill levels, from kids and beginners to advanced and no-gi practitioners. Enrolling your loved one in our classes supports their training and fitness journey while helping them develop their personal growth, discipline, and self-defence skills.

Whether they are kickstarting their fitness journey or looking to refine their BJJ submission skills, this incredible gift will have a lasting impact on their martial arts experience.
2. High-Quality Gi
Every BJJ practitioner needs a reliable gi, and gifting a high-quality one can boost their training experience. With a well-fitted gi, your loved one can enhance their performance and confidence on the mats. So, look for brands known for durability and comfort, such as Tatami, Hayabusa, or Shoyoroll. Also, consider the colour and style preferences of the recipient, as some BJJ gyms or academies have specific guidelines regarding gi colours.
3. BJJ-Specific Gym Bag
It’s time to replace your loved one’s worn-out duffel bag! Look for gym bags with compartments for clean and dirty gear, pockets for water bottles, and durable materials that can withstand daily use. Some BJJ-specific gym bags even come with features like ventilated sections to keep the gi fresh after training sessions. With this gift, you help them stay organised and prepared for every class.
4. Foam Roller or Massage Tools
Recovery is undoubtedly vital in BJJ, where rigorous training can lead to muscle soreness and tension. A high-quality foam roller helps alleviate tightness and promotes flexibility by targeting sore muscles post-training. Want to go the extra mile with your Jiu-Jitsu-related holiday gift? Consider including massage balls or a massage gun in your gift box to help them recover effectively after intense sessions.
5. Online BJJ Instructionals
Is your son or partner eager to learn BJJ but can’t attend a face-to-face class yet? Consider gifting online instructionals from renowned BJJ athletes. Several platforms offer a wide range of instructional videos covering various techniques and strategies from some of the best in the sport. This gift allows practitioners to explore new techniques at their own pace and deepen their understanding of the art.
6. Travel Gift Cards
If you’re looking for gifts for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners who travel for tournaments, consider gift cards for airlines or hotels. These gifts can ease some of the financial burdens that may come with travelling for BJJ competitions. This thoughtful gesture shows your support for their ambitions while helping them focus on performing their best without worrying about logistics.
7. BJJ-Themed Apparel
Need more easy-to-buy and thoughtful ideas for gifts for Jiu-Jitsu lovers or fans? Help your loved one represent their passion off the mats with stylish BJJ-themed apparel. T-shirts, hoodies, rash guards, or even hats featuring BJJ-related designs or quotes make great gifts that allow them to showcase their dedication wherever they go. Look for items from reputable brands that prioritise comfort and quality.
8. Grip-Strengthening Tools
Grip strength is essential in BJJ, making grip-strengthening tools a valuable gift for any practitioner looking to improve their performance on the mats. Consider items like grip trainers, hand grippers, or specialised tools like towel pull-up bars that simulate gripping an opponent’s gi during training.
9. Nutritional Supplements
Support your athlete’s training regimen with high-quality nutritional supplements tailored for active individuals. Protein powders, recovery drinks, or vitamins designed specifically for athletes can enhance performance and recovery times. Read more about the role of nutrition in BJJ performance, and be sure to choose reputable brands that prioritise quality ingredients.
10. BJJ Books and Resources
Books and resources on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can be a fantastic gift for the intellectually curious BJJ practitioner. Look for titles that cover technique, strategy, and the philosophy behind BJJ. Books by renowned practitioners like ‘The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Globetrotter’ by Christian Graugart or ‘Jiu-Jitsu University’ by Saulo Ribeiro offer valuable insights and techniques that can enhance their understanding of the art.
Also, consider subscriptions to BJJ magazines or online platforms that provide instructional content, interviews with top athletes, and articles on the latest trends in the sport. These resources can inspire and motivate practitioners while deepening their knowledge of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
