Fantastic experience here, booked a trial session and loved it! The venue is spacious, clean and well managed with a slick website and onboarding process. Instructors are welcoming, informative and supportive. It has a real team vibe here with the other members of the class showing patience with a novice like me and giving me tips along the way. The structure of the class provides in depth tuition of the techniques and a chance to practice them followed by sparring which was so much fun and a great workout! I’ll definitely be back again when my aging body has recovered, highly recommend Dom’s Mathouse to anyone interested in BJJ. 5 stars all round!

Fantastic gym, coaches and a great community that makes you feel very welcome. Spotlessly clean and safe environment to train in. Space is large and well set up for BJJ and other classes. Lots of sessions on offer for training throughout the week. Everyone at the club is extremely welcoming and friendly. I was unsure about attending mixed level classes but the positive environment created by everyone makes it a great place to progress.

An exceptional training environment with great instruction and a great community. I started BJJ at this gym with the beginner's course and have loved training here ever since. I have had the opportunity to train at several other gyms, and I can confidently say that Mathouse stands out above the rest in terms of quality of instruction, punctuality of classes, hygiene, teammates looking after one another, and white belts not spazzing out.
