Amazing gym in an unassuming location. Incredibly fun and informal atmosphere. If you want to spend half your training time doing jumping jacks & bowing to photos of old Brazilian men then don’t come here. If you want to do lots of live training focused towards skill development under the supervision of an experienced and passionate coach, the this is the place for you.
Fun and competitive team, following the latest discoveries from Ecological Dynamics to improve their training.
I had an absolute blast training at IOC.
Special thanks to coach Ed Ingamells for investigating in me!
Great team based on Hendon, high level Jiu Jitsu, they run a weekly Openmat every Sunday from 12pm-2pm.
Where you can roll and meet new friends, highly recommend if you want to level up your Nogi game 👊🏽OSs
There are no endless warm ups & inactive drilling, as you would get with the majority of other clubs currently, or being demoralised because you've been pasted on your first day, putting you off jiu jitsu completely.
Also, as with many other clubs you would be subject to certain policies, aka endless bowing, club specific gi/rashguards at extortionate prices, locked in monthly training contracts etc.
Your experience at IoG will be in complete contrast to this, because since creating it. Ed has actively gone out of his way to evolve & improve the way he teaches jiu jitsu/grappling. Something that many other instructors are content, not to do.
Meaning that the classes at IoG are purposeful, methodical & specifically geared towards making you as complete a grappler as possible. In the most informal & relaxed jiu jitsu environment you will likely come across. As a byproduct of this you will have new team mates, who will help to teach & acclimatise you to grappling (if you're new, if you're not you'll still get some good training sessions in).
Ed has been one of my main instructors since I began jiu jitsu nearly a decade ago now. The reasons above are why myself & many others have chosen IoG as a bjj club and/or stayed with Ed as an instructor post covid.
Modern jiu jitsu club with a strong focus on wrestling/submission grappling led by a top black belt coach, Ed 🎉🐻Ingamels.
A good range of classes on the timetable with free open mat on Sundays #oss 🤼🥋
