About
Tyler's Story
Tyler Bernardo is an up-and-coming competitor with a bright future in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Training under the HRJJ system since his early years, Tyler represents the next generation of the gym's competitive talent — a product of the same development pipeline that has produced some of Australia's best-credentialed coaches and athletes.
His development at HRJJ has been shaped by daily training alongside world-class coaching staff and the competitive culture that the founders built into the gym from day one. The technical foundations, competition exposure, and mindset that define the HRJJ approach are all evident in the way Tyler trains and carries himself on and off the mat.
As a junior coach, Tyler is beginning to give back to the next generation coming through the HRJJ system — sharing the knowledge and competitive instincts he has developed, and helping to maintain the culture that makes training at HRJJ genuinely special.
