About Us
Our story so far.
Renegade is home to a community of people practising Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
Founded in 2010 by Jamie Murray and John Mirabella, the academy is a community that celebrates people and culture, skill development and great training experiences.
People come for the training but they stay for the community.
Our instructors have decades of experience in coaching and are black belts in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Their passion for martial arts is only surpassed by their joy in seeing all students find new skills and increased happiness at Renegade.

Writing about the BJJ lifestyle

Culture of Learning
Growth is about more than belts—it's about building a community of learning, ownership, and support. Coaches guide, students take initiative, and progress is measured by mindset, not just rank.

Path to Personal Growth
At Renegade BJJ Kensington, we balance personal discipline with community support. BJJ is a journey of growth, rooted in values of service and love. Through consistency, connection, and faith, we help each other thrive.

Culture of Care
Respect, care, and trust are the foundation of our BJJ classes in Kensington. Coaches lead with safety and integrity; students train with responsibility and mutual support. Together, we build a community where everyone grows—on and off the mat.

Our Commitment to cleanliness.
The impacts of COVID-19 are significant for all martial arts academies. Being closed for business and more importantly limited in the ways we could connect with our team hurt. That’s why we are committed to keeping our facilities, staff and members as safe as possible with our COVID-19 Safety Policy in line with health recommendations.
