⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm based outside of London, but whenever I'm here I sign up for a week. Plenty of classes, including Judo and Wrestling. Glenn and Eric are great coaches respectively. The fundamentals class and general class are top notch. Jon Villada is a great instructor, as is Martin Foot, and did a class today with Sam Gibson. 4 maybe 5 black belts on the mats, all sparring with each other alongside white belts. Family vibe, with an old school feel, its become my second home. Always made to feel welcome as a visitor.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Signed up for the wrestling-only membership last month, and I can safely say it's the best wrestling class I've been to. Eric Ciake is a fantastic coach and makes the sessions engaging and detailed. The club is very down to Earth, not full of arrogant instructors or students like other places. Highly recommend.
