Balance BJJ, Paxton and Ali helped me to get back to my BJJ practice after 10 years of break... Paxton and Ali are knowledgeable, patient, and create a supportive learning environment. The facility is clean, and the community is welcoming. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, this class offers great training and camaraderie. Highly recommend! Best choice in Central London!!! Oss! 🥋👊

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

An amazing class with an awesome coach. I tried BJJ with Paxton 2 years ago on a whim and have been hooked ever since. Pax is extremely personable and an excellent teacher who tailors his instruction to the individual. All backgrounds and abilities are made to feel welcome and part of the group. Would highly recommend to give it a try if new to the sport or to come along if familiar with BJj and in the area.
