This is a club for Leeds university students interested in No-gi grappling (the ground game aspect of mixed martial arts). Members take part in a unique combat sport in which competitors can learn technique, spar with friends and/or competition standard BJJ players. Those who are fans of the UFC or MMA in general will know that BJJ fighters and wrestlers have been typically the most successful since the competitions origin with Royce Gracie winning UFC 1.

If you are looking for a sport that is great exercise, fun, social and a good way to improve confidence this is the sport for you.

With your first session free you have nothing to lose.

The tuition is provided by professional instructors who have had pro MMA experience and excel in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu so rest assured that you will be in good hands. This is a rare opportunity for students to learn and practice grappling in a fun, relaxed and welcoming environment with top tier instruction.
