Question 1

I've never trained before. Is that OK?

Accepted Answer

It's better than OK — it's most of our intake. Every class has a beginner-friendly drill block and our coaches pair you with someone who'll look after you.

Question 2

What do I need to bring?

Accepted Answer

Just yourself, a water bottle and loose-fitting clothes. We provide a gi for your first class. After that you can buy one through us at cost.

Question 3

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Your first class is free. Adult unlimited memberships start around £65/month, kids around £40/month. No joining fee, no contract.

Question 4

How old does my child need to be?

Accepted Answer

Little Warriors starts at four. Juniors runs nine to fifteen. We move children up when they're ready, not when they hit an arbitrary birthday.

Question 5

Will I get hurt?

Accepted Answer

BJJ is one of the safer combat sports — there's no head striking and you can tap any time. We coach you how to roll progressively. Bumps happen; serious injuries are rare.

Question 6

Do I need to be fit first?

Accepted Answer

No. The mats build the fitness. Show up at whatever level you're at and we'll meet you there.

Question 7

Can I just turn up?

Accepted Answer

Please book ahead for your free trial so we can prep a gi and pair you with a coach. After that, walk in any time.

Question 8

Do you compete?

Accepted Answer

If you want to. Our team competes regularly across the UK. Plenty of members never compete and love it just as much.
