Very welcoming to beginners. I was nervous entering a new environment to take on a new activity but it’s a friendly group with no egos that I saw. Mark took the time to try and get around everyone during the sessions. His passion and expertise is evident. Straightforward flexible membership which is great.

Mark is one of the best coaches I’ve ever worked with. Having done various sports all my life, and a lot of the times being only one of a handful of girls, Mark has made me feel the most welcome whilst in a martial arts environment that I ever have. There is a philosophy at the gym that everyone is welcome and that is certainly true. There is a real sense of wanting people to progress not only inside the gym but outside aswell which makes about a very welcoming troop of people. If you’re a female reading this review and you’re wanting to try BJJ, but your struggling for confidence to start, then Fortify is the perfect place.
