TAKO MMA
BANKSTOWN AERODROME
Beginner friendly striking and grappling, no experience needed. Private sessions available.
Real training, real competition experience — not just theory.
Alex is a BJJ blue belt (4 stripes) with active competition experience across grappling, kickboxing, and MMA — from Australian Sub-Only submission grappling events to WAKO-sanctioned kickboxing.
His jiu-jitsu was shaped under two black belt instructors — one for gi, one for no-gi — along with an Australian Olympic wrestler for takedowns and control. He’s also trained abroad in Thailand, Bali, and Japan, bringing back striking and grappling influences from some of the sport’s most respected training grounds.
Both of his BJJ instructors trained under Elvis Sinosic — the first Australian to ever fight in the UFC, and a pioneer of MMA and grappling in this country — who is himself under the lineage of the Machado family. That lineage runs through everything Tako MMA teaches: technical, no-ego, and built for complete beginners just as much as for competitors.
