BEFORE YOU COME
A few useful answers.
Is there parking and step-free access?
On-site parking and step-free access, with separate male and female changing facilities, toilets and showers.
What should I wear?
Bring a T-shirt with shorts or leggings, and avoid very baggy clothing. Gi BJJ requires a Gi. Tell us which class you’re trying and we’ll confirm what you need.
Can I borrow a Gi?
Gi rental is £5 per session. Let the team know before your first Gi class if you need to hire one.
Do I need experience for MMA?
No. Our Wednesday adult MMA class welcomes complete beginners, including people who have only watched it on TV or played the games. Book your taster in advance and introduce yourself to the coach when you arrive.
Which kids group should we choose?
Our timetable has groups for ages 3–5, 6–8 and 9–14. Select the matching group on the taster form. Under-3s need to wait until age 3; ages 15 and over can enquire about adult classes.
How do free tasters work?
Free tasters must be booked in advance and taken in a class. Open mat sessions are not included. Gi rental is £5 if you need one.
