This BJJ gym is possibly the best Gi jiu jitsu gym in the UK, as evidenced by their excellent competition record. If you want world class training with one of the most accomplished BJJ coaches, this is the place to be. Coach Bradley Hill is an incredibly nice and humble person and his team is about as legit as it gets.
I’ve had a great experience at Royal Jiu Jitsu Birmingham. The coaches are knowledgeable, patient, and explain techniques clearly, which makes the classes accessible for all levels. Sessions are well structured with a strong focus on fundamentals, drilling, and live sparring.
The atmosphere is welcoming and respectful, with a strong team culture on the mats. It is a supportive place to train and improve. I would highly recommend it to anyone in Birmingham looking to start or progress in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
My five-year-old daughter and I both train here. It has a great environment with amazing coaches and a very good vibe. The teaching for children is strong, and there are always training partners of a similar size because the kids’ classes are well attended. Among adults, there is a good mix of athletes, from national and international medallists to hobbyists who simply enjoy the sport. Everyone can find their place here. Highly recommended
Royal Jiu Jitsu is outstanding! Bradley and Samantha are phenomenal instructors who create a welcoming, professional, and high-energy environment. Their attention to detail and deep knowledge of technique make every class valuable for beginners and advanced practitioners alike. Highly recommend!
Royal Jiu Jitsu, led by Bradley and Sam, is an exceptional academy! From day one, they’ve created an environment that is both welcoming and challenging. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced practitioner, their passion for the art and their dedication to helping students improve is unmatched.
The classes are structured, technique-driven, and always fun. You leave every session not only feeling more skilled but also part of a supportive community. I can’t recommend Royal Jiu Jitsu enough – it’s the place to be if you want top-tier training in a positive and motivating atmosphere. Thank you, Bradley and Sam, for everything!
Hands down one of the BEST Brazilian Jiujitsu Gyms I have ever trained at. As a sporadic Brazilian Jiujitsu practitioner for the past 6 years, between travelling and many other interests, BJJ has always grounded me as I travelled and lived between New Zealand and the UK. I have trained at some pretty prestigious gyms, which have all had some great positives, but what really sticks out to me about Royal Jiujitsu compared to the rest, is the combination of friendliness AND train hard mentality. With a wealth of knowledge and experience under this Royal Jiujitsu roof, every training session is an educational session, which I love! I feel encouraged to try, and make mistakes, as this is how we learn. In other gyms I have felt at times intimidated for not knowing the technique, or been shamed with push ups for being late to class. As a woman feeling safe in a gym is very important, I definitely feel safe training at Royal Jiujitsu. Safe to train, learn and grow. The coaches are absolutely AMAZING! I feel so grateful and fortunate, to have found Royal Jiujitsu since moving to Birmingham last year. 10 STARS!!!!!
Really great. They have a nice balance of serious about, highly contemporary Jiu Jitsu, but with serious-fun approach. For kids my son immediately appreciated that they really get stuck into proper learning of theory and applying it into practice.
I have been a member here since May/June 2023 and have loved every second spent on the Mats. Sam & Bradley (the whole team!) Are fantastic! You really feel as though they are trying to get the best out of you in every session. And I always come away feeling elevated and confident to take on the next day. Not only do you improve your understanding of jiu jitsu as an art form but you come away understanding more about yourself and what you are capable of if you believe in yourself. Thanks team! I look forward to many more hours spent sweating it out and rolling with the best!
Bradley and Samantha, Along with the other high-level coaches are excellent.
The lessons are interesting and challenging. But the meticulous attention to detail by all instructors is second to none. These classes also lead on from week to week which retain knowledge and apply it in subsequent classes.
Any question in class or after class is answered from a place of well-varied knowledge and world-class competitive Jiu-Jitsu experience in Both Gi and No Gi.
The atmosphere of the classes is excellent, and the ability to train with experienced peers at the beginner level is an added bonus which doesn't happen at many places. As this also contributes to continuous beginner improvement.
I would highly recommend Royal to anybody looking to train BJJ in Birmingham.
Royal Jiu Jitsu is the best place in Birmingham to learn Jiu Jitsu, in my opinion. Both Bradley and Samantha have copious amounts of knowledge and experience of Jiu Jitsu, both as world class competitors and teachers. The Royal community is friendly and welcoming and ultimately a wonderful place to be. I highly recommend Royal Jiu Jitsu to beginners and advanced students. Personally, I think you’d be a fool to pass up the opportunity of learning from the best Jiu Jitsu coaches in the business. Thank you Bradley and Samantha for creating a welcoming, safe and friendly environment to learn Jiu Jitsu!
