The Best BJJ Gym in the UK (If Not Europe!) Inglourious Grapplers is a true hidden gem in the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, standing out among the influx of BJJ gyms across London. Having trained here, I can confidently say it’s the best BJJ gym in the UK, if not Europe. What sets this place apart is that every single class is personally coached by the legendary Jude Samuels, the first UK BJJ black belt. Unlike other gyms that use big names but rarely deliver personal coaching, Jude’s presence in every session is incredible and elevates the learning experience to another level. His attention to detail and passion for teaching are unmatched, making every session invaluable. The facilities are world-class, rivaling even the most luxurious gyms. Spotlessly clean with top-of-the-line equipment, a steam room, brilliant showers, free towels, a café, and a members’ lounge—it has everything you could ask for. And all of this comes at an unbelievably reasonable price. I’ve trained at some of the top BJJ gyms around the globe, and I can confidently say that Inglourious Grapplers rivals, if not surpasses, them all. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or just starting out, this is the gym you’ve been looking for.

Best BJJ gym in every aspect!! Price, quality of classes, community, facility, all 10/10! Only place I found that has both a great BJJ training area and also a free weight gym(also boxing, lifting, and yoga) fixed price for unlimited classes. The BJJ community is super welcoming and friendly, great for meeting new people. AND they have amazing showers AND A STEAM ROOM!!!

The BJJ community is sooo good! Taught and grown by head instructor professor Jude Samuels! Everyone in the gym is soo welcoming and helpful, super supportive for the BJJ journey I'm now on. This wasn't supposed to be the case! I joined predominantly for the gym with a chance for BJJ... Now I'm there for BJJ and using the weights occasionally. Definitely best value by country mile with top of the line gym facilities including steam room and various other classes all included in the same price. I'm now only a white belt but I can see this to be a multi year journey, mainly because of the encouraging community and great people. If you don't believe me why don't you try a class and see it for yourself. We've had great experience with visiting practitioners as well!! All around couldn't started my journey at a nicer gym... Now I'm trying to get my colleagues to join 😁😁.
