OJJA is an amazing club for all. After taking my 5 year old daughter last year, I decided to give Jujuitsu ago myself and enjoy every minute I'm there. The club itself is well presented, clean and tidy. However the main thing about the club is by far Karl and the coaches, they are so welcoming, friendly, encouraging and supportive. Jujuitsu is fantastic for fitness, self defense and great for your mental health. If your thinking about it, the hardest thing is stepping through the door... You won't regret it.

What an incredible place!! I’ve been training at OJJA now for just over 4 months, I started taking my 3 young boys and whilst I’d never done it myself, I understood Jiu Jitsu would be a great life skill for them to have. Very soon after the boys started, I got to know Karl and the other coaches, I initially had no intention of doing it myself, but felt at ease enough to give it a go. I started training and quickly fell in love with the OJJA gym and member community. Jiu Jitsu is a great way to get fit, learn self-defense, and build confidence. I’m so glad I was encouraged to give it a go. The coaches at OJJA are amazing. They are patient, knowledgeable, and highly supportive. I cannot recommend OJJA enough!!

I have been training at Oswestry Jiu Jitsu Academy for nearly two years now and I cant speak highly enough of Karl & the club that he has created for all of us. Karl has brought in a wrestling coach for the benefit of us & also has a kids class on the weekend which I help out as my son attends. OJJA prides itself on its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, where both beginners and experienced practitioners can train in a safe and supportive environment. The classes are well-structured and cater to the needs of individuals of all ages and skill levels and I can vouch for that as I that person who was nervous when joining. For kids, OJJA offers a dedicated kids' program that aims to teach children important life skills, such as discipline, self-confidence, and respect. The classes are designed to be fun and engaging, and Karl uses age-appropriate teaching methods to ensure that the children enjoy learning and remain motivated. My son attends the classes, loves everything about the class and the environment Karl has created. For adults, OJJA offers a range of classes, which includes fundamentals, and advanced technique based classes. The classes are tailored to the needs of individuals, and Karl is there to provide one-on-one feedback and support to help students achieve their goals. Some individuals including myself regularly compete in competitions around the UK which Karl comes along and supports everyone. If you're looking to train, get fit or just have fun, there is no better place than OJJA!
