I started to Toukon Academy after a disappointed couple of lessons at another club where the consistency in training I feel was lacking. After attending a class I jumped straight in with both feet, best decision I made for my Jiu-Jitsu. The quality of training at Toukon Academy is very good with techniques broken down into detail and time is spent ingraining those techniques. The tuition is second to none for me as a mere white belt and several black belts have been graded here. Classes are popular and the students show good understanding of Jiu-Jitsu. The introductory course is good value for money as you essentially pay for a Gi and belt. Rolling sessions are hard, as it should be, but higher grade belts are just as helpful to aid you in your development with tips and analysis or your positions. It is a pleasant place to train and everybody is made to feel welcome. Words often used but when your Professor can recall the names of every student .......

Having just completed my first 100 days, I thought now would be a great time to give The Toukon Academy the kind of review it deserves. I started my 4 week introductory course last year and was hooked after the first couple of sessions. I came to learn Jiu-Jitsu but I decided to stay because of how fantastic a Coach Dave is. His level of passion, enthusiam and patience is next to none. It's clear Dave's spent time learning so much more than he needs to know to coach Jiu-Jitsu, I think he might know the name of every muscle and bone in the body! He's a master of his craft and he cares about every student in the class, I've seen him welcome multiple new starters and immediately put them at ease. So if you're interested in learning Jiu-Jitsu, sign up for the next 4 week introductory course and you'll get great coaching, with a great community as well. See you on the mats!

Visited the Toukon academy recently and the classes are very well taught by David. The students were welcoming and good training partners. If you’re in the area, it’s the place to train :)

The Tōukon Academy is an excellent place to develop a new life skills and meet great people. Coach Dave Webbs' teaching is top tier and he is easy to talk to. During my time here so far I have met people from all different backgrounds and I'm sure I'll meet many more. A brilliant place to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Highly recommend.

It will be the best decision you ever made to join Toukon Academy. I quit smoking and quit alcohol. I was looking for a new healthy addiction and as a UFC fan I decided to try Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. From the start, Head Coach David Webb was very welcoming. I am in my 4th month now and it feels like i only started yesterday. David Webb looks after his students and shares his knowledge on all aspects, great at explaining techniques and reasons behind each move. I understand everything very well although i am not English. He is patient and doesn’t mind explaining a move 2-3 times if needed. His assistants are also great and very knowledgable. Toukon Academy is a great place in Bedford full of positive individuals eager to learn and always helpful. If you are thinking of joining, just do it you will not regret. See you on the mats!

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Toukon Academy, it has been tough and I have struggled to pick things up but Dave and the team have all been really supportive in helping me understand the concepts. There are always higher belts that help with training who are happy to correct and assist with techniques. It is a friendly place to come and students learning is at the fore front of all the sessions. The sessions are tough and good fun at the same time. I would highly recommend the Toukon Academy to anyone that is interested in starting out in Jiu Jitsu!

The tōukon academy has become a major place in my life ever since my first session. I joined after being highly recommended by a friend and all I can say is that I wish I joined sooner. The coach and his community atmosphere makes everyone, from everywhere welcome. It’s the ultimate in personal development.

Outstanding BJJ club. Highly professional, detailed and structured learning environment for BJJ, fitness and self defence. I've studied various martial arts under many instructors over the years but the Toukon Academy is the only full time, fully professional club I've trained with and it shows in the high quality and structured approach to student development. Would highly recommend for BJJ, fitness, meeting great people, mindset, increasing resilience and general awesomeness.

I enrolled in the four week course at Tōukon back in May and I was delighted with it. I was nervous as a female entering the sport but everyone was very welcoming and David is an excellent and patient teacher, ensuring everyone is comfortable. Having taken a brief break, I've rejoined as a full member and was welcomed back with open arms. There are no egos in BJJ and the atmosphere at Tōukon is amazing and encouraging and you learn something new every week that progresses from the previous session, without being overwhelming. Cannot recommend Tōukon enough!

As a complete beginner to any sort of martial arts I enrolled on the 4 week beginners course that the academy runs. I was nervous and had no idea what to expect. Everyone at Toukon is friendly and welcoming this made me feel right at home from the start. David is a great teacher that understands how to present and teach the different techniques to everyone in his class all with varied abilities and experiences.
