My children train with Craig at The Royal Grappling Academy in Junction 6, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. They genuinely enjoy their classes, have grown in confidence, and have developed a much stronger sense of discipline, respect, and responsibility. Craig has high standards and expects the children to listen, behave appropriately, and put effort into their training. In today’s world, that’s exactly what many children need. He is firm when necessary, but always fair and focused on helping the kids improve both on and off the mats. Martial arts is not about being mollycoddled; it’s about learning self-control, resilience, respect for others, and accountability for your actions. Craig understands this and creates an environment where children are encouraged to do their best while learning important life skills. From our experience, he cares about the children’s progress and safety and wants them to succeed. If children leave his classes with better discipline, more confidence, and a greater respect for others, then he is doing an excellent job. I would highly recommend Craig and The Royal Grappling Academy to any parent looking for quality martial arts instruction for their children.
In Ireland for work for several months and RGA was great, would recommend to anyone looking. Really good coaches, nice people, convenient spot.
Anytime we are in the area, we like to drop into a class. We are always welcomed, and all the guys are very helpful. A great environment to train.. Most certaintly recommend here to train BJJ.
Top notch BJJ gym in Dublin 15. Roger has kindly allowed me to drop in when I have been back in town and I have loved training here.
I have been training at RGA for about 6 months. Roger has been the perfect coach. All members were very welcoming and down to earth. The gym is clean. I would recommend this gym to anyone with four limbs (and maybe three)
I received an extremely high and progressive level of coaching at Royal Grappling Academy for many years. I always found the environment to be friendly and welcoming, with classes catering to beginners, hobbyists, and competitors alike. The gym is held in very high regard by jiu-jitsu practitioners all over the country, and for good reason.
Starting training here 3 years ago. Have trained in many other gyms since starting and have yet to discover better facilities. Spacious Changing rooms with showers that are always kept clean. Mat space is large too. High level coaching with safe training environment. Highly recommend
I've been training here for just over 6 months after being a member at some other gyms. The culture in the gym is great, everyone is very friendly and the coaching is very good. I would highly recommend this gym to both beginners and more experienced grapplers.
A great place to train with highly skilled and dedicated coaches. Lots of fun and interacting activities. A huge thank you to Craig who’s been coaching my girls for almost 4 years. He is absolutely fantastic and my children love him.
Posted 1 year agoRoyal Grappling Academy is a great place to learn and train Brazilian Jijitsu. From beginners to advanced, the gym offers an inclusive, welcoming atmosphere that makes everyone feel at home. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to helping students improve. They break down techniques in a way that’s easy to understand, with a strong focus on proper fundamentals. Whether you’re looking to compete, improve your fitness, or just enjoy a great hobby, they cater to all goals. The facilities are top-notch—clean mats, ample space, and a professional yet friendly environment. If you’re in Dublin and want to train BJJ, I couldn’t recommend Royal Grappling Academy enough.

Posted 1 year agoOne of the best clubs i have ever participated in for martial arts. The number of purple, brown and black belts on the mats really has excelled my progress. Everyone is so down to earth and nice. Well recommend this club.
