  As a complete beginner to BJJ, Professor Andy and Vina have been excellent in making me feel welcomed and excited about training. A great team and an amazing environment to train, I would highly recommend 😊

  Amazing place. Would definitely recommend for women's self defense and just self defense in general. It is also good for having a safe place to train and relax in, and make new friends. ❤️

  Absolutely, one of the best clubs that I have trained at. Very family orientated, designed for everyone to be involved. Me and my son love training there.

  I originally contacted Vina about my Son joining just a week after her and Andy opened. It didn’t take long before I was convinced to give it a go and coming on for 4 years later, we are both still training (which hopefully says it all). Andy is a gifted professor, very talented and has a great ability to deliver the detail with a sense of humour that keeps people engaged. It has been inspirational watching Andy and Vina build their club, which is getting stronger by the day. They are growing champions! Would highly recommend.

  I have been training at Gracie Barra Erdington for just over two years, I have never come across an academy with such a great bond at team spirit. Many of us travel from outside of Birmingham to train passing many other gyms we could train at and this is simply down to professor Andy and his wife Vina who run the academy so professionally and treating each and every student with the same level of care and support through their training. As a student who has health issues one being two hip replacements with one as recently as January they have supported and helped me through my recovery and getting back onto the mats whilst also ensuring that I don't over do things. Every student regardless of rank/level help to push each other or make sure your not over doing it. Thank you both and all the team for making the academy such an enjoyable environment to train and improve in, you should be very proud of what you have built 🙏
