ASHURST WINTER OPEN 2026

Wairua Bjj Adult Competitors

Wow! These guys did the Mahi at the Ashurst Winter Open yesterday!!

Hayden Melles, Zane Smith, and Zane Illingworth showed up to compete in this Sub only competition. They got down to business on the mats and showed their stuff!!

Ankle locks and Gi Chokes from these guys took out the medals.

There was stiff competition in the purple to black belt round robin, but we saw some great Jiu Jitsu.

Zane Illingworth got a tough first draw, taking on the black belt and showing great heart!
Zane Smith had some hard fought matches and ultimately took home the Silver Medal by dishing out ankle locks and putting his black belt opponent to sleep with a Gi Choke!

Hayden Melles had a last-minute division change but still managed to pull off a superb Gi Choke to take the Gold Medal.

Thank you to Ashurst Martial Arts for putting on a fantastic event; we'll definitely be back next year.

This Saturday, Wairua Bjj hosted a Gracie Jiu Jitsu self-defense seminar with Maestre Bira Daitx of Mai Dojo Wellington.

Using self-defense techniques that come straight from the Gracie family, Maestre Bira showed us how to create distance, disarm, control, and disable attackers, stay aware of our surroundings while taking opponents to the ground.

Many thanks to everyone who attended, particularly those who traveled from out of town.

This seminar also celebrated 6 months since Wairua Jiu Jitsu opened its doors in Paraparaumu! We've experienced exponential growth; our Wairua family continues to expand every week!
