Brazilian jiu jitsu review
Venue: Alliance Jiu Jitsu London
Class: Brazilian jiu jitsu
Attraction: State-of-the-art boutique jiu jitsu school

Vibe: Modern and elevated with a sleek design and open plan. Alliance is very community-orientated, so group classes are a great way to make connections and friends
Extras: Gis/jackets for hire, showers, hair dryers, changing rooms, lockers
Recommended for: Jiu jitsu is a full-spectrum workout, great for honing everything from stamina and strength to instincts, self-discipline and mental clarity. Perfect for adults and kids.
Highlights: Six-day-a-week schedule with multiple time slots per day, world champion jiu jitsu coaches, friendly staff, safe, progressive and welcoming learning environment with options for all abilities, unique yet practical workout you can utilise outside of the gym
Drawbacks: If you don’t come with a partner, you will most likely be paired up with someone. So just be prepared that it is hands-on training where you have to interact very closely with another person that you aren’t familiar with.
