My son moved to serenity jiu jitsu around a year ago and its been the best move he has made. The time, effort and dedications the coaches put into the kids and the whole team is second to none! Ryan has come on fantastic and developing amazing BJJ skills. The gym itself is like a little community, its an amazing atmosphere and the competition team travel the country together supporting and cheering each other on and the timetable which the coaches provide is something spectacular! Would highly recommend Serenity Jiu Jitsu!

My son (17) conducted a Trial 2 months ago, I attended with him as a spectator and TBH I was massively impressed with the professionalism and friendly atmosphere throughout the gym. Not only were the instructors super helpful with him, all of the other students were too. It's NOT as if you are thrown in at the deep end, you are properly coached by very seasoned and knowledgeable coaches, (Older and younger). My Son has now signed up for a full membership which included a GI (jiu jitsu suit) and a discounted membership for 3 months. To note my son has additional need where he can not follow instruction at first, however, the coaches are aware of this and taylor this if required. Super place just wish we'd found it sooner

When we first brought Josh to Serenity, I knew absolutely nothing about jiu-jitsu. Like many parents, I simply wanted him to feel confident and know that he could defend himself if he ever needed to. What I didn’t realise was that we were signing him up for something far greater. Over the years, Serenity has become so much more than a martial arts club. Through Jonny and the incredible coaching team, Josh has developed confidence, resilience, discipline, respect, and a belief in himself that extends far beyond the mats. He has learned that setbacks are part of life, that hard work matters, and that showing up consistently pays off. One of the things I love most about Serenity is the emphasis on character and sportsmanship. The children are taught to win with humility, lose with grace, support their teammates, and understand that success comes through effort, perseverance, and continuous learning. In a world that often focuses solely on outcomes we’ve found these lessons are invaluable. The team spirit is also something really special. While jiu-jitsu may look like an individual sport from the outside, Serenity feels more like a family. The children genuinely encourage one another, celebrate each other’s achievements, and support each other through challenges. There is a real sense of belonging that is evident the moment you walk through the door. The standard of coaching is exceptional, but for me it’s the culture that Jonny and the team have created that sets Serenity apart. They care deeply about every child and are helping to shape confident, respectful, resilient young people. As a parent, I couldn’t be more grateful for the positive impact Serenity has had on Josh. The confidence, friendships, life skills and values he has gained are priceless. If you’re considering a club for your child, I wholeheartedly recommend Serenity.

We enrolled our 11 year old son at Serenity Jiu Jitsu, he has come on so well with his fitness, his mental attitude and his resilience. The trainers are brilliant with the children and do a fantastic job.

I strongly believe training in some kind of martial arts should be a given on every kid’s schedule . ALL martial arts provide a solid structure and foundation to support a child’s physical and mental health, so it’s a matter of finding the right martial art that suits your child best. With this belief I looked around and found a perfect place “Serenity Jiu Jitsu at North Shields. My grandson Jacob has been attending for over 8 months now and I must say, it is by far the best Jiu Jitsu club I have come across. Teaching is delivered at a highly skilled level with a friendly environment. Professionalism and discipline being embedded throughout. Serenity Jiu Jitsu is a great place in a perfect location with easy access to parking - always a plus. I would definitely recommend this club to everyone who is thinking about starting martial arts. It's a professional and friendly place with brilliantly trained instructors. My grandson Jacob really loves this place which is a great place for building children's confidence, resilience and assertiveness. Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that utilises leverage, therefore enabling a smaller person to overcome heavier. My little grandson Jacob is trying to implement this principle on his trainer Ricky. Thank you guys for making Jacob happy every time he attends the training session.

Wish I had’ve read the reviews sooner. I was originally interested in signing my daughter up for some classes and didn’t respond to their last text as it was getting later in the evening. Since then they have text over 10 times and emailed. I understand one follow up text but hounding you is terrible. I responded to the email saying this, and guess what they have text me again!! DO NOT SIGN UP FOR A FREE TRIAL UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE HOUNDED.
