Gracie Barra Martial Arts & Fitness Centre

An honest review:

Gym is in a good location, literally a 2 minute walk from central station and those that are new to Jiu Jitsu, this gym is fine, Professor Ricky Gillon has good knowledge of the fundamentals and the warm ups are good for general fitness.

However, if you have trained for a while, I'd suggest looking at other gyms, due to rushed demonstrations of higher level technique and the fact that its rare for the professor to roll with students.
I trained here for 6 months, I enjoyed most of my time there, and all my training partners were great and welcoming people. However, I can't say my Jiu Jitsu improved at the same rate as it had done at my original team.

About the facilities, there is a large mat space, but often a lot of bodies on the mats, so it can get crowded. Changing rooms are a bit small, but that shouldn't be an issue. There is also a small weights room, which is a bit handy if you want to do a little bit of strength and conditioning.

About payments, when I joined, I was under the impression that Kickboxing etc. were included in your monthly fees, they aren't, you have to pay additional fees to go to the classes which aren't Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Prices also increase at each programme, so as you get better, you will have to pay more. Pretty sure that's a Gracie Barra thing globally, as more classes should open up for you as you progress.

Had to switch to this gym due to a location issue from a previous gym moving and been very pleasantly surprised. Great support network of people, affordable and plenty of opportunity to progress as a martial artist

Sounds awesome

Brilliant wee club really friendly kickboxing classes the class is run by Alan & Martin shannon the classes are on every Tuesday and Friday 7 - 9
