Such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere at SmoothFlo. Everyone I had the pleasure to train with were amazing, really helpful and respectful. Sam is a fantastic coach, really articulate and personable in his teaching and incredibly specific in his advice while going round the class and performing one to one help. A brilliant place to train and try out Jujitsu.

I had a taster session with Sam, he was extremely supportive and understanding. As someone who has never done any form of martial arts, he managed to cater to my level and support me to enjoy the session. Safe to say my entire body is hurting after it but it was extremely fun and fulfilling even if i learnt my core strength is awful :)

I joined Smoothflo Academy post covid, mainly for the social aspect/health benefits & I found myself falling in love with the sport. I can't thank Sam and the team enough for the encouragement & support provided. The gym is a welcoming environment for all levels, I get along with everyone in the gym. You really do feel part of something great at Smoothflo. I had a 7 day free trial feeling a little nervous about whether I'd enjoy it or be able to practise Jiu-Jitsu, let's just say the rest is history and I'm still attending. Jiu Jitsu has improved my mental & physical health, helped me gain confidence & form strong bonds. A few points : clean gym, flexible timetable, caters to a wide array of ages.
