Australian Elite Team

The Australian Elite Team is Melbourne's elite martial arts gym, established in 2004. Born from humble beginnings in a garage with just one student, the gym has grown under the visionary leadership of head coach Ninos Dammo into one of Australia's largest and most dominant BJJ/MMA gyms. In just a few short years, AET has surged to unprecedented heights, earning recognition throughout the country.

The Australian Elite Team offers comprehensive training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Gi and No-Gi), MMA, Muay Thai, boxing, and wrestling for all ages and skill levels. Their experienced coaching staff provides classes for kids, teens, adults, and women, whether you're a complete beginner or seasoned competitor. The gym is known for its strong competition team and complete skill development approach.

The coaching team is led by Ninos Dammo (founder and head coach, 3rd degree black belt), alongside world-class instructors including Thomas David (black belt BJJ and pro MMA fighter), Sam Greco (3x world kickboxing champion and K1 legend), Blake Caparello (IBO World LHW Champion), Michael Tohme (2nd degree black belt), and UFC fighter Jake Matthews. Additional coaches include Bilal Abdo (wrestling, represented Australia at 2010 Commonwealth Games), Colby Allen (black belt), and women's coaches Abby Julian (brown belt) and Emily Talevski (black belt).
