Reviews of Scramble Academy Leeds

P. Y.

Awesome place. Really great instructors that help you progress in your journey in martial arts regardless of what that means for you. It’s technical gym and you can learn a lot quickly . Friendly and great fun also. I can’t recommend enough

S. R.

I signed my son up to the kids classes which are great. Really professional instructors, he enjoys every session and comes away buzzing every week. Then I recently signed up, complete beginner and the instructors are awesome and everyone's willing to help you out, it's got a great atmosphere and the sessions are spot on.

j. s.

Top gym, truly amazing facility with legit black belt instructors, both who teach and compete at the highest levels of modern jiujitsu. The quality of training is second to none. I’d trained with Fred Greenall previously and can’t recommend him as an instructor strongly enough. Liam Cann is also excellent. This gym has a great brand, culture and team ethos. If you’re on the fence about starting jiujitsu, just make the trip down and get started with classes asap - you will not regret it!

T. Y.

I tried the BJJ taster session as a complete beginner and absolutely loved it. I only expected to be there for half an hour or so but ended up staying for most of the evening to try MMA too. Fred and Liam are great instructors who clearly love their sport and the atmosphere in the gym is really friendly. I highly recommend to anyone thinking of trying a new martial art!

A. J.

I have trained at various BJJ/MMA gyms and would say this is the best out of them all. The gym has very nice aesthetics and is also very clean. The instructors are all good at what they teach and the sessions all follow on from the previous week which allows you to learn in a methodical way. I would strongly reccomend trying a class or going to one of the tasters which is what I did back in the beginning of August and still use what I learned back then!

e. a.

Really friendly and welcoming atmosphere, great instructors and great people! Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of joining :)

H. W.

The gym is the most welcoming and inclusive I have ever personally trained at. Each of the coaches are extremely approachable, and everyone within the gym is working collectively together, without any ego's, to try help each other to develop and improve. I recently joined Scramble Academy and would highly recommend to anyone who is considering joining and may be nervous to start something new!

L. O.

Been going to scrambled academy afew weeks now and must say very clean and tidy, people there are friendly and welcoming, very good all round 👍

M. F.

Coaches are great and the gym is clean with extensive facilities. The classes are flexible and coaches allow you to modify as you please to suit your ability, preferences or injuries. There are ample classes throughout the week to provide flexibility. All in all a very well run academy, teaching you correctly with no attitudes or egos. Worth every penny.

C. D.

THE BEST GYM IN THE NORTH! This gym has: Two clean, spacious mat spaces. High level BJJ instruction from three top coaches, two of which compete professionally. Excellent Muay Thai and MMA classes. Coffee shop and showers. And it's open 7 days a week. No dogma, no strict uniform policies and no egos. Some of the friendliest, knowledgable people you'll ever meet, this is a real team. Perfect for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Come down and train!

A. B. (. C.

started working with freed via 1-1 sessions and not looked back. both his knowledge of BJJ plus his coaching experience is 10/10. since then i have joined open session having rolls with some of the other members of club which each of them have been very welcoming and offered to help and teach me. the guys have really create a great environment to learn and compete. if you're looking to start BJJ then and based in Leeds i would highly recommend this as you wont regret it.

c. g.

Really great gym, with even better facilities now that they have moved to a bigger place including two trainining spaces. I generally train bjj and grappling but with the MMA and muay thai classes running alongside them, you can drop in and try something new whenever you want. Friendly environment and a large array of skills to help you progress from beginner to elite.

J. B.

Amazing culture, truly welcoming and top tier coaching which focuses on the finer details. The best martial arts gym I’ve had the pleasure of attending.

T.

I'll be honest I was so nervous before the first class I felt like first day in school but the lads are really welcoming the gym looks amazing and clean! Deffoo can't wait to get strangled again 😂👌🏼

j. w.

awesome place to train. coaches and the other people training are super friendly and accommodating of all levels of experience. Coaches take the time to fully explain techniques and slow things down and respectfully show you any mistakes your making. highly recommend this gym to everyone.

S. M.

Amazing gym, no ego's and a true family of passionate martial artists. Top level coaching, a vast group of skill levels and the best place to hyper accellerate your skills! I've been going a few month now and the value ive got from each session has been amazing.

J. O.

Great gym. Friendly and suitable for all levels.

A. K.

Amazing place to train - the coaches take their time and break down technical aspects and explain everything clearly and concisely. Very clean place and definitely better than most if not all places I've come across over past years. You can tell they enjoy teaching and are very good at what they do

P. D.

Came to check out the Scramble last week and was impressed with how clean the gym was and how friendly everyone was. One of the head coaches even stayed to have some rolls with me after the sessions had finished. Would recommend to beginners in jiu-jitsu or seasoned practitioners alike. 5 star.

M. M.

I've done BJJ sessions with 2 of the instructors now and I've loved the classes, teaching styles and the overall energy of the club. The level of the grapplers here is very high and I'm looking forward to starting my journey here as a regular member in the coming weeks. Would definitely recommend Scramble Academy!!

S. M.

Incredible facility with three of the best coaches under one roof. The gym offers high level BJJ MMA and Thai training that caters to everyone from high level athletes to complete beginners and hobbyists. Can’t recommend this place more 👌

N. D.

A gym that feels like home due to the friendliness of the coaches and members there. Instantly welcomed as a beginner and theres not a better place in this area to learn any of the martial arts that they teach there.

O. S.

The teaching style is brilliantly designed for staging learning in a really effective, principled manner. The space and teaching is accessible for all abilities and interests. The facilities are lovely and spacious with a really comfortable design and feel. There is ample street parking nearby too and a bus stop outside.

K. D.

Really the best gym I've ever trained at, thanks to the coaching staff who go above and beyond in making you feel welcome from the first taster session, the gym has a beautiful aesthetic and is a friendly, fun environment to learn in with plenty of laughs too If you're thinking about starting Jiu-Jitsu then you NEED to try here!

S. S.

This gym absolutely smashes it. I recieved a very warm welcome, after which I was shown around the place. Such a crisp and clean gym. They really have not compromised on the aesthetics of the place. As a girl who has trained at other gyms, this has got to be the cleanest with the best facilities. They have hair dryers in the ladies changing room, toiletries for if you've forgotten your own. I am really impressed with Scramble Academy Leeds; warm, welcoming, clean and great value for money. I liked Fred's teaching style and the way he explains things. The syllabus is all online which is handy for home revision. Honestly, if you're considering giving Scramble a go, I really recommend you do.

J. M.

I trained here for about a year before I moved out of the area. A perfect place for anyone new to the sport. The staff are super friendly, warm and welcoming. I mainly trained BJJ, wrestling and some striking at Scramble. Probably a slightly different reason to leave a review but... During lock down an intruder broke into our resulting in a shadowing figure with a torch standing over our bed at 1am (I was with my girlfriend at the time). The police arrived to find the intruder apprehended with several broken ribs, a broken wrist, cut eye and generally in a bad way after he'd "fallen down the stairs". I honestly can't thank scramble enough for my set of "Stairs". Jokes aside, besides a very positive atmosphere you may just learn something that can look after yourself and the loved ones around you, 1000% worth every penny I ever paid for membership. Hope you guys are back up and running soon, I will be sure to pay you a visit!

J. K.

Attended the open day & both my girlfriend and I signed up on a rolling monthly contract. This academy is easily the most aestically pleasing gym I have ever attended. The coaching staff are polite, friendly, approachable and most importantly extremely knowledgeable. The facilities and in house equipment by far exceed expectations. Location is easily reached, just off the dual carriageway with plenty of parking. I look forward to seeing the story of the gym unfold.

J. K.

Liam Cann has gone above and beyond and provided in-depth videos for my Jiu-Jitsu game. He has specifically targeting movements and positions that have massive ramifications with actual rolling examples. I find a lot of videos on jiu-jitsu and grappling always have slow movements and claim they work, without showing the movements in an actual scenario. These guys know Jiu-Jitsu, and specialize in Jits for MMA on top of traditional gi. The culture they've developed over the years is unmatched, and I have never felt like I didn't belong while working with Liam and the coaches. Oss!

Best place to train! All the coaches are mint teachers and it has a warm welcoming vibe

G. H.

A place that embodies everything about being welcoming, the instructors are truly passionate and genuine people, all with fantastic knowledge and a love for sharing it, the facilities are second to none. The gym constantly welcomes anyone and everyone of all skill levels to come down and after being signed up for two months scramble feels like a second family, couldn’t recommend this place highly enough.

J. M.

Hands down the best place I have ever trained. The coaching staff is incredibly knowledgable, friendly, and always willing to help you improve. The facilities are excellent with a great aesthetic. The atmosphere is welcoming, and inclusive. I really can’t say enough good things about the Scramble Academy Leeds.

A. M.

I got to drop in today as was working in Leeds, great facilities, lovely atmosphere, beasts on the mats and a bloody good cup of coffee to finish it off. What more do you want?

A. B.

Fantastic place to train. Great coaches and a friendly community. Very welcoming to new people!

M. S.

Best gym I have ever seen, with amazing coaches and ppl who train there. All of em are extremely polite. I love that place. Because of them I love bjj. Can't recommend it more...

S. H.

Amazing gym located in Leeds City Centre. The coaches are extremely well versed in all aspects of BJJ, wrestling, and no-gi BJJ for MMA. Each coach has their own style of teaching meaning classes are always interesting and most importantly, fun. Free taster sessions for anyone who is interested in joining the gym and a very welcoming environment make this one of the best gyms for anyone looking to start training. The gym has a great layout with a seating area for socialising before and after class, a top of the range mat area with a sound system and air conditioning, as well as changing rooms with showers. There are varied classes every night of the week and lots of open mat sessions for anyone wanting to spar or drill certain techniques in a relaxed environment. I've trained at Scramble since it opened and in that time I've met lots of new people, greatly developed my skill set and also competed at multiple competitions around the UK with other members of the team. After trying other gyms around Leeds I can definitely say it's the best place to train and that everyone should give it a go!

M. B.

Absolutely great vibe. I felt welcomed immediately. The coaches there are very lovely filled with desire to teach and teach well. I came to an open matt session and loved the feeling that you could just ask anyone for help. To sum up, Great equipment, great coaches and great atmosphere. I would recommend it to everyone.

D. K.

This is a really great gym with a ton of high level people training there, that being said the pacing and the way the lessons are delivered leaves even beginners, such as myself, with plenty to take away from each session. I spent 2 weeks training here while travelling home to visit my family. I attended the "early bird" sessions, 7am-9am, which were more frequent than listed on the website (site lists Monday and Wednesday but the actually sessions occurred every weekday). There were 5-10+ people there each day, even during the long weekend days. Some days the early bird muay thai classes were there and the gym was packed - I cannot imagine what it is like on the evenings as I've never gone but I am sure there's a lot of people to roll with. The lesson format was fantastic for me (I've only been training for just over 2 months). A technique is first shown to everyone and you have some time, 5 minutes~, to drill that with a partner. The technique is then built on through-out the session meaning that advanced players have the opportunity to learn but it also means that beginners can just keep drilling what they understand without feeling overwhelmed. When there's about 30 minutes left rolling starts with 5 or so minute rounds, moving to a different partner after each round. I loved my time here and I'll be coming back every time I get the chance. The instructors, mainly Liam when I was there, are very friendly and easy to approach. They are happy to show you what you don't understand. I even managed to try a few things I'd never done there, such as cage wrestling as the gym offers more than just bjj.

R. T.

Amazing facility, great instructors , always plenty on the mats and a top class coffee shop attached!!

L. N.

The staff are professional, value safety are deliver fantastic and informed lessons as they are all experts in their fields. Clean, relaxed and accepting atmosphere which means Scramble is for any one who'd like to invite martial arts into their lives. Wonderful place and would be there than anywhere else for sure.

J. K.

Amazing place to train Brazilian jiu jitsu, Wrestling and Muay Thai. The atmosphere is really welcoming and the whole team is super friendly. The quality of coaching is top and the instructors are very passionate and dedicated. I love the fact that each instructor has a unique style from which my jiu jitsu benefits a lot. The mats are beautiful white and are without doubt the best I've ever rolled on. The whole venue is modern, tidy and clean and the female changing room has even a box with toiletries - very thoughtful 😊 Can't recommend this place enough!

T. H.

I've been a member at Scramble Academy Leeds for over two months now and after training at the majority of the other BJJ/MMA gyms in Leeds, I can honestly say Scramble Academy is head and shoulders above the rest! The first thing you will realise upon entry of the gym is how aesthetically pleasing the gym looks. There is a lot of space for everyone to train as well as striking equipment provided (boxing/mma gloves, pads etc) and an area to socialise before/area classes, as well training rooms and showers. There are three grappling coaches and a thai boxing instructor. The thing I probably love most about Scramble is how diverse every coach is. Every class is interesting and engaging as every coach will teach you something in their own style, being able to coach people coming for their first class to veterans of the sport. If you're someone who is new to BJJ and wants to try it out, the gym offers taster classes to see how you find it but you'll realise quickly, as I did, how friendly and welcoming everyone is and what a fantastic and fun place it is to train. Enjoy.

A. B.

Beautiful brand new gym. Lovely nice clean mats. Small kitchen area, place to sit and socialise, vending machine... top quality mats and pads. Big area to train. Separate male and female changing rooms. Shower facility. What more can you ask for. Wonderful and experienced coaches... unique timetable that caters for everyone.

W. H.

Amazing gym with incredible facilities. Liam, Fred and Mike have created a brilliant friendly inclusive environment ideal for anyone from the seasoned grappler to the complete novice. Speaking from my own experience, the coaches have been instrumental in helping improve my jiu-jitsu Muay Thai and MMA game and are always available to stop what they’re doing and help with anything, be it technique, strategy or advice for on or off the matts. If you’re on the fence or if you want to try something new then I couldn’t reccomend anywhere better than Scramble.

f.

Got a very warm welcome to the gym with some Muay Thai and BJJ. Everyone there is super friendly and the coaching is excellent, all the coaches bring something different to the party. Signed up the next day and I'm hooked!

R. S.

Best gym in the North!!! A great community and incredible coaches who compete at the highest level.

j. e.

If you're looking for a gym where you can start from scratch and be welcomed from day 1 then this is the place. The level of instruction has the perfect mix of focusing on fundamentals while at the same time exploring the finer details which has been consistently providing amazing results in competition. Liam, Fred and Mike are all at the top of their game and teach you the stuff that they have used to become so successful in both high level BJJ comps and MMA. They don't keep their A game a secret and will happily share with anyone and everyone who walks through the doors. The gym itself is probably the best looking gym i've seen, is always clean and the atmosphere is great. If you're thinking of trying out BJJ or want to get into combat sports of any kind then this is the gym for you.

S. L.

Detailed teaching in a friendly and considerate environment. Spacious and clean women's changing rooms. Highly recommend.

R. G.

The best jits gym I have ever been. Really high tech and we have 3 of the best jits players out there.

S. M.

A light and spacious gym just a short walk from the city centre with amazing coaches! A great facility for anyone starting out or experienced in Jiu Jitsu. Would recommend to anyone

L. U. B.

Beautiful set up of a gym which encourages a friendly learning environment. Suitable for any experience level whether you be a complete beginner or seasoned veteran when it comes to martial arts. Caters brilliantly for students interested in BJJ, MMA or Muay Thai.

R. K.

As someone who has been training brazilian jiu jitsu for many years, I have been lucky to have the opportunity to train at many gyms across the country. Scramble has far exceeded my expectations in respect of teaching quality, facilities and atmosphere. My experiences at some other gyms has left much to be desired in respect of their inclusivity and atmosphere. My view of Scramble is that it works hard to maintain a inclusive environment for all to practice jiu jitsu/mma/ muay thai. From the instructors who are exceptional at sharing their extensive knowledge, through to each member of the academy who make training an enjoyable experience for each other member. I would recommend Scramble to anyone who is looking to make their first tentative steps into whatever they hope to achieve from training brazilian jiu jitsu (weight loss, competition training, self defence). I would also recommend to anyone who is training/previously trained and looking for a new place to train.

T. B.

Cannot say enough about the quality of instruction here. Three highly talented and dedicated coaches each with something to benefit everyone. Trained with Liam when I first started Jiu Jitsu at University in Leeds. He is not only a talented BJJ practitioner but a great coach with passion and enthusiasm second to none. He and the other coaches have encyclopaedic knowledge and are all great grapplers. The gym looks amazing and will prosper. Get in on the ground early on this one and be part of something special. Oss!

C. A.

Awesome place to learn and train. All instructors and members I have met are extremely knowledgeable, welcoming and take the time to help and give advice. Would recommend to bjj practitioners of all levels

D. R.

I was welcomed with open arms into the gym immediately by Liam Cann,. Fred Greenall and all the guys there. It is an absolutely stunning gym, an all white theme and the mats are top-quality Dollamur mats. This really is the place to go for all your martial arts needs and glad that I came across it, being in the city centre it's an absolute gem and easy to get to, plenty of parking etc.

C. H.

One of the most tidy and slick looking academy's I have trained in, and made a billion times better by the amazing people in the gym. Everyone made me feel so welcome and an awesome wealth of knowledge. Felt like a home away from home

S. “. M.

Lovely new gym! Great early morning rolling in Leeds city centre. Perfect for anyone like me, working in the area, who want to squeeze in a little more Mat time. OSSS

T. B.

I have trained at my fair share of gyms over the past few years, and Scramble is hands down the best training experience I've had, or ever likely to have. In my opinion there are many BJJ 'gyms': where training is heavily structured and instruction stale, where conversation is one-note, where there is limited support/training opportunities outside of restricted scheduled hours and little interaction outside of the gym. Sadly, there are far fewer BJJ 'clubs': where passionate individuals train how they want, with ample training opportunities at times that suit all walks of life, sharing a love for jiu-jitsu and submission grappling, encased within a friendly, supportive atmosphere, filled with people who are more than just training partners, but genuine friends with shared interests. Scramble falls within the latter category. The instruction is absolutely top-notch, and the guys who teach here are not just highly technical, insightful instructors, but overall great people who are heavily invested in the progress of every student. If I could give 6 stars I would, but 5 out of 5 will have to suffice.

M. L.

Went down for a taster session in wrestling and bjj and thoroughly enjoyed it. The facilities are brilliant and the coaching was very inclusive, facilitating for both the beginners and the more experienced members. Great experience.

m. p.

a beautiful gym with top class instruction. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who desires to progress their skills in grappling or striking. a fun, family gym vibe and all levels are welcomed with open arms

D. K.

One of the best gyms I've been to. Friendly environment, coaches are very helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely recommending it!!!

E. T.

Great atmosphere, everyone super friendly and happy to help out. I went down for a taster session and will definitely be signing up shortly.

L. B.

The most important thing about an academy... is it being clean, and when you walk in to this professionally laid out academy with beautiful white tatami and a nice little reception area you instantly feel germ free, a great use of space and a real strong team of committed intelligent individuals who are trying to make a mark on the scene, highly recommend this place my only negative point Is Liam’s Guillotine skills are lacking in great depth. Everyone else is a STUD. top marks!

Z. T.

Made to feel welcome from the very first class, top level jiujitsu and the way its explained fits with me very well. The building is brand new and state of the art complimented by a friendly engaging atmosphere.

R. D.

Trained here when working up in Leeds. Super friendly and welcoming, good ethos, loads of open mat time and great tuition. Recommend highly for any level
