My life is dedicated to Jiu-Jitsu. My goal was simply to build a brotherhood to lead the expansion of BJJ while respecting the essence of our art. My students are an extension of my family. I want each one of them to achieve their personal best while helping spread Jiu-Jitsu. We must do that honoring the traditions and efforts of those who came before us.

Very friendly atmosphere with fantastic coaches. Whether you are looking to learn self defence, compete, keep fit or just try something new you will be made to feel at home. Best decision I ever made was joining GB.

Absolutely loved the classes and my instructor but unfortunately I was let down severely by the woman who owns/runs the business, a lot of money was taken out of my bank within 3 weeks. Barely any response from the owner and failed to answer any of my questions in regards to why I was overcharged. Requested a refund for the over payment and the classes of which i did not receive and was told that they do not offer refunds! Currently in the process of disputing this! Made my whole experience awful and I would not recommend this company!
