I highly recommend Life Jiu Jitsu if you want to learn BJJ in Lincoln. I procrastinated for too long about starting a martial art in my mid 30’s, if that sounds like you, don’t hesitate any longer. It’s an excellent learning environment, the coaching is great, Dan and the team have made me feel very welcome.

I started at life BJJ Lincoln in October last year and from the moment I walked in I felt welcome by both Dan and the other members of the team. I feel like I’ve progressed significantly since then in both technical aspects of jiu jitsu and sparring. When sparring with Dan he allows you to work whilst also highlighting your mistakes. He uses pressure and control rather than showy and explosive techniques in order to create a productive atmosphere rather than overwhelm you. Would highly recommend.

Having never done BJJ or any martial art before, me and my teenage daughter started attending. The instructors are great, friendly, really welcoming and create a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere. The gym is fantastic and we are really enjoying our sessions there. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Having recently taken up BJJ in my late 40’s at Team Moreira I have found all elements of the school to be excellent. From the expert coaching to the welcoming atmosphere, all my trepidations of being an older novice were quickly dispelled within the first session. I am now reaping the benefits that Jiu Jitsu brings to your life, confidence, fitness, discipline and within the group a sense of belonging. I encourage anyone young or old to begin their Jui Jitsu journey with Team Moreira under the expert tutelage of Black Belt Dan Wait.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is fantastic. I always finish the session having learned a lot of new moves and techniques. The training is always fun and energising. I always look forward to the next session.

I’ve been training at this gym for a while and I absolutely love it! The atmosphere is chill and everyone’s very welcoming. The coach Dan is very passionate about the art and loves to teach. To anyone thinking of starting jiu jitsu or wanting to level up their game, I’d highly recommend taking a look at this gym.

This is a little known gem of a gym/dojo. I've been coming here for a few months now and I love it. The atmosphere is chill but you still leave the mats feeling you've just learnt something valuable from Dan. Dan is a consummate professional in his role as coach, friendly, approachable and more than happy to help in areas I was struggling with. If you're looking to start your BJJ journey or level up I would wholeheartedly recommend training here where the atmosphere and cleanliness of the facilities is also first rate.
