About Us

Built through Experience, Driven by Passion!

Combat Grappling Cape Town was built with one goal in mind –
creating a welcoming, high-level martial arts environment where anyone can grow, improve, and challenge themselves through combat sports.

Based in Diep River, Cape Town, we offer Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, striking, and grappling classes for all experience levels — from complete beginners and families to active competitors.

At Combat Grappling, we believe martial arts is about more than just fighting. It builds confidence, discipline, resilience, fitness, and community. Whether your goal is self-defence, competition, fitness, or personal growth, our mission is to help every student progress at their own pace in a supportive and motivating environment.

Led by Head Coach Jan-Hendrick Booysen, a GFTeam Brown Belt with over 13 years of experience in BJJ and MMA, our coaching philosophy focuses on making high-quality instruction accessible to everyone. We are passionate about teaching in a way that helps students feel comfortable, capable, and challenged, regardless of their background or skill level.
