Renan is the best teacher, so patient and able to tailor his approach to the individual. Couldn’t recommend enough, whether you’re a complete beginner or not.
Great gym with a really friendly atmosphere. The facilities are clean, there’s loads of classes to choose from, and Renan is a great guy and brilliant coach — knowledgeable, approachable and very good at explaining things, especially for someone new to BJJ. Everyone I’ve trained with has been friendly and helpful too. Really enjoying training here, wish I’d started sooner, and would definitely recommend Urban Flow

Renan is an incredible and patient teacher who is very much invested in the success of his students. I’ve had the pleasure of being taught by him a number of times. His dedication and technical understanding makes him a great and passionate teacher for all age groups. Urbanflow is a great central location and very close to
Beating heart of the square mile. Don’t miss out check this place out!
Absolutely incredible, the classes are really helping me with my fitness whilst learning new skills and having fun. Renan is a brilliant teacher, he’s very skilled and super down to earth. I can also pick from many different classes a week which means I can fit it in around work. Would highly recommend to anyone.
My little brother started training at UFL BJJ and has loved every second of it. From the moment he walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and inclusive, which made it much easier to settle in - especially as a child who wasn’t sure what to expect.
Coach Renan is knowledgeable, patient, and clearly passionate about jiu-jitsu. He takes the time to break techniques down step-by-step, making it accessible for beginners while still challenging more experienced students. The classes are well-structured, with a good balance between drilling, technique, and live sparring.
The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and there’s a strong sense of respect among members. Everyone supports each other, which creates a great environment for learning and improving.
Overall, UFL BJJ is a fantastic place to train whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your skills further. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone interested in Brasilian Jiu Jitsu in London.
Coach Renan! An incredible coach and an even more incredible human being! I’m so grateful that my first-ever BJJ class was taught by him a few years ago. He has a wonderful ability to put you at ease while sharing his extensive knowledge and experience. Always encouraging, positive, and engaging, his coaching has helped—and continues to help—me today, both on and off the mat.
Thank you Coach!!
Renan is an exceptional coach and an even better human. Training under him has been a privilege. His technical knowledge is deep, his explanations are clear, and he has a rare ability to make complex concepts feel simple and accessible, whether you’re a complete beginner or more advanced.
What really sets Renan apart is how much he cares about his students’ progress. He brings real energy to the room, pushes you to improve, and creates an environment that’s focused, disciplined, and still welcoming. You always leave his classes feeling sharper and more confident.
I’m genuinely gutted to see him move on, but incredibly happy to see him open his own gym. Any place he runs is going to be something special. If you’re thinking of training here, you’ll be in excellent hands.
Highly recommended.
