    I’ve been training at Allegiance since 2010, and it has been an incredible journey. I’ve had the privilege of training in both Japanese Ju Jitsu and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I can honestly say this place feels like a second home. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also genuinely invested in helping every student improve. They take the time to break down techniques, answer questions, and ensure you’re constantly growing in both skill and confidence. What really sets this club apart is the team spirit and camaraderie among the students. No matter your experience level, everyone is supportive, encouraging, and eager to help each other succeed. Whether you’re looking to improve your fitness, learn self-defense, or challenge yourself mentally and physically, this club has something for everyone. It’s an environment where you can push your limits, make friends, and enjoy every step of the journey. Highly recommended for anyone looking to get involved in martial arts!

    Just joined and had a great experience from a very experienced welcoming team. I am an older adult (53) and wasn't sure if this was a good idea but so glad I made that jump, no regrets and would recommend the club to anyone thinking joining Well an update 10 months in and still have no regrets and I would say life changing in so many ways. I can't thank the coaches enough for all the help and support and looking forward to the future 👍

    I've trained here for the past few years, what a club! I had never done any martial arts before and was pleasantly surprised at how welcoming the students and coaching staff were. They helped me early on to build confidence with their flawless tuition. The facilities are also great, the best I've seen compared to any club I've been to visit. Sensei Patrick, Stephen, Guy and coaches Dean, Craig, Lee and George are great teachers. They have not only helped me develop as a BJJ practitioner but as a person. The competition team is very high level and has allowed me to medal at multiple competitions. If you are hesitant of trying BJJ then I strongly recommend you attend a free trial class and see why everyone falls in love with it!

    My 7yr old son needed to improve his self confidence. As the Martial Arts helped me so much in my youth, I want to give him the same opportunity. Gracie Barra Derby provides a perfect place for him to develop his skills as well as grow his self confidence and come out of his shell. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough!

    Excellent academy to practice and master Martial Arts! It’s that good I signed my little lad up to train here too. Over the years I’ve been here, I’ve developed and grown as a person. All the Sensai’s / Coaches are phenomenal, they all tailor themselves to each individual to ensure every single person grows on their own journey. I’ve been to a few Martial Art academies over the years and this is by far the best. A real humble training culture, like a big family, where everyone grows and develops together, all whilst learning an Art(s)* for life. Highly recommended. *The academy does Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), Japanese Jiu Jitsu, MMA, NO GI, Self defence, private tuition
