Started here at 49 years old. The level of support from not just the excellent and friendly instruction of Mark and the senior belts but all the other members who support each other to get better. I have started to get fitter from day one but what I wasn’t expecting was the mental health benefits which are life changing making this far more than a martial arts club. I am still very much a beginner but I am completely hooked and will keep trying to be 1% better each session.

My experience here has been nothing short of exceptional. Mark (Owner and Head Instructor) is warm and welcoming from the moment you first step inside the academy to the time you step out the door after the class wraps for the night. Top quality instruction from warm up to techinques to sparring. Clean and bright facility with a great mixture of experienced and new members ranging from white to brown belts. After a long hiatus from Jiu Jitsu I'm proud and excited to continue my journey in martial arts calling The Jiu Jitsu Academy home.

Have trained here for a year, it’s a Great laid back club to train at. None of the strict martial arts politics or “strictness”. Everyone is welcome of all ages/abilities. Always have a good laugh and enjoy the social aspect as much as the training too.
