I started training here 6 months ago. The coach is highly experienced and provides excellent training, and all the students are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Perfect place to learn and improve your skills in a supportive environment.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ • a year ago

Been training here for the past 6 months and have had nothing but good experiences. Nothing bad to say about Michael the coach or anyone who trains there. Really great and welcome environment but also makes sure you train hard and get the most out of your time. Couldn’t recommend enough for people new to BJJ or the more experienced.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ • 8 months ago

I’ve been training here since the start of the year, and can’t speak more highly of Michael and the rest of the group that train here. Its a very welcoming environment, and I was made to feel included straight away. Michael has a wealth of knowledge and is a great teacher, who takes a real interest in your development, and helps you get a little bit better every session. I’d thoroughly recommend this gym for all levels of experience.
