Absolutely fantastic club for both adult and children's classes. I've been training with the Gorillas just over 6 months and as a small female, I was daunted by the idea of learning a male dominated sport. However, Adam and the team have been incredibly patient, supportive and welcoming and I can honestly say I'd recommend to anyone; It's my favourite healthy obsession by far! My eldest daughter (11, Very shy) has recently started the mini Grapplers classes and the increase in her confidence is wonderful. Diverse group(s) but each is catered to, with medal winners coming to fruition in the young female categories. So in summary: Inspiring, inclusive, safe and fun way to get fit with transferable skills for self defence, and full support for competitive advancement if that's where you wish to progress. 100% recommend - Let's get more ladies on the mats! 💪
Posted a year agoDropped in to Gorilla Grapplers while working away from home and the guys were very welcoming. Had a great training session and worked on some of my weak areas with the help of some more experienced guys. Great place to train if you are interested in starting Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
Posted 9 months agoStarted training here with the gorillas about a year ago, having no previous experience in martial arts. The team and coaches are friendly and really welcoming. I’d highly recommend this club to experienced competitors and complete novices alike.
Posted a year agoGorilla Grapplers over at Basecamp is an amazing place to training BJJ! The Head Coach Adam Gunning, makes you feel part of the team from your first session. His ability to break every movement down and explain the techniques makes it an enjoyable place to train! Brilliant facilities coupled with great people and a Coach that loves the sport, makes it the gym of choice for me.
Posted 2 years agoMy daughter (13yrs) joined Gorilla Grapplers 18 month ago, first session she was nervous wreck this being well out of her comfort zone. Last month she competed in her first competition and won Gold! The coaching from Adam, Mok and Jamie really is fantastic and they have shaped her into a confident ju-jitsu player. If you’re thinking of booking this for your kids just do it…or have a go yourself.
