I started off my martial art journey here and I’ve not looked back. This is a great place to learn from the best. Head coach Aaron is an amazing instructor with years of knowledge in multiple martial arts, I very much recommend if you were like me and wanting to give it a go, start here! or even if you’re experienced there are some very talented martial artists to test your skills against.

Genuinely the most welcoming BJJ gym I've been to. Especially as a woman with very beginner-level skills, I tend to feel quite intimidated in most gyms I visit. Here, I was greeted with warmth and friendliness before training even began. Instruction is also incredibly detailed and hands-on. Aaron really takes the time to make sure you understand not only how to do certain moves, but also why they work. Class sizes are very comfortable, and all the other students I met were extremely helpful and a pleasure to train with as well.

I have been training at the dungeon since January, Aaron and all the team that train there are friendly and welcoming, doesn't matter if your a complete novice or have experience everyone is treated the same, I highly recommend the dungeon.
