Often called human chess, BJJ is a grappling-based martial art built around control, technique, and submissions; like chokes and joint locks. Think of it as fighting without strikes. The goal is to take someone down, control them, and finish with a submission. It’s a challenging, rewarding way to build skill, confidence, and real-world self-defence.

The building is split over two floors. Downstairs, you'll find a reception, pro shop, lounge area, and a large mat space. Upstairs includes a strength & conditioning area, male and female change rooms, and showers, all purpose-built to support grappling. Every detail is being designed with long-term training and member experience in mind. Pricing and membership options will be released closer to launch.

Yes. We’re building a 5-week beginner programme to help new students learn the fundamentals in a structured, supportive way, without being thrown in the deep end. Join the list and we’ll share all of the details as we near our launch.

Yes. We’ll be running structured BJJ classes for ages 4–7 and 8–13. The focus isn’t just on bully-proofing, fitness, and martial arts skills, it’s on helping kids grow into focused, confident, and resilient young people. Through movement, mentorship, and meaningful challenges, we’ll help them build discipline, social skills, and healthy habits.

We’re assembling a coaching team focused on mentorship, not just instruction. The goal is to help you progress over time through hands-on guidance, clear structure, and a commitment to your development.

We’re building a place where people come to improve; with structure, consistency, and great coaching. The atmosphere will be calm, welcoming, and enjoyable. We take the training seriously, but not ourselves, and we want everyone to feel part of it from day one.

We’re planning a full timetable, six days a week, with sessions for adults and kids across all levels. Our goal is to make consistent training accessible, whether you're a day one beginner, hobbyist or athlete.

We’re applying a hospitality mindset to everything we do at MGA, on and off the mats. From the way you’re welcomed to how the gym runs day to day, it’s all being designed to feel smooth, professional, and easy to be part of. Allowing you to focus on what matters: training, progressing, and enjoying the process alongside like-minded people.
