“Very welcoming class with an excellent instructor, suitable for beginners and above, what I found is just how friendly and willingness to help each other was so clear! Highly recommend this club 👌🏻”
Matt Minter
“Excellent club, very welcoming bunch. Adam's great with breaking down all the techniques, and focusing on specific areas. We have some good rounds of rolling and king of the mat at the end of sessions which challenge what you have learnt. I wanted to join a BJJ Gym at the end of last year, and glad I picked Gorilla Grapplers!”

Gorilla Grapplers over at Basecamp is an amazing place to training BJJ! The Head Coach Adam Gunning, makes you feel part of the team from your first session. His ability to break every movement down and explain the techniques makes it an enjoyable place to train! Brilliant facilities coupled with great people and a Coach that loves the sport, makes it the gym of choice for me.

Coach Adam is very knowledgeable and always tries to get the best from you. The whole team are like a big family. Highly recommended. An inclusive and welcoming environment. Something for everyone whether you want to improve fitness, learn some self defence or plan to compete in high level competion. So the question is.... What you waiting for??
Leigah Hollamby
Fantastic club, lots of strong, skilled, and friendly members, and top tier coaching; very good and intuitive explanations, and patient and supportive guidance from everyone in the club, not least the coach, Adam
Jimmy Alderson
“Absolutely fantastic club for both adult and children's classes. I've been training with the Gorillas just over 6 months and as a small female, I was daunted by the idea of learning a male dominated sport. However, Adam and the team have been incredibly patient, supportive and welcoming and I can honestly say I'd recommend to anyone; It's my favourite healthy obsession by far!
My eldest daughter (11, Very shy) has recently started the mini Grapplers classes and the increase in her confidence is wonderful. Diverse group(s) but each is catered to, with medal winners coming to fruition in the young female categories.
So in summary: Inspiring, inclusive, safe and fun way to get fit with transferable skills for self defence, and full support for competitive advancement if that's where you wish to progress. 100% recommend - Let's get more ladies on the mats! 💪”
Sophia Jack
“Started training here with the gorillas about a year ago, having no previous experience in martial arts. The team and coaches are friendly and really welcoming. I’d highly recommend this club to experienced competitors and complete novices alike.”
Dave Dawkins
“My daughter (13yrs) joined Gorilla Grapplers 18 month ago, first session she was nervous wreck this being well out of her comfort zone. Last month she competed in her first competition and won Gold! The coaching from Adam, Mok and Jamie really is fantastic and they have shaped her into a confident ju-jitsu player. If you’re thinking of booking this for your kids just do it…or have a go yourself.”
