Reviews of Gracie Barra Horsforth Leeds

J. P.

I’ve been attending GB Horsforth since June and honestly wish I’d joined sooner. I absolutely love it here and can’t recommend it enough. It was an extremely warm, friendly and welcoming environment to step into as a newbie, and I’ve since made great connections with my fellow classmates and coach. There’s a real social and community aspect to the training. The standard of the coaching and training is excellent. The way the classes are structured works really well, demonstrations are always clearly explained, and any questions are always answered. The space is clean and well maintained. It’s a great workout and skill set to develop too, it makes you feel like you’re really working towards something.

I have been training at Gracie Barra Horsforth since May now and I absolutely love it, best decision I ever made. The standard of training coach Magnus provides is awesome and there is an ever-growing sense of community within the club. Highly recommend !

I have been training with the team at Gracie Barra Horsforth for four months now and I cannot rate the team highly enough. I had been diagnosed with depression and anxiety and been off work for a period of time. I had no motivation, no purpose and lost sense of self. Since training at Gracie Barra, I am rediscovering myself and my capabilities, and I cannot wait to roll with the crew during training sessions. The coaches are fantastic in teaching you the techniques and your fellow trainers help you feel comfortable and at ease. Everyone is there to help and support each other and no training day is ever dull. My 11 year old son trains now and he cannot wait to train either. Its a big family at Gracie Barra and I am honoured to be part of the team. I would highly recommend it!

Love this place. All of the members are Incredibly welcoming and there's a real team mentality here where people really want to help each other learn and progress. The coaches are great too, very knowledgeable and patient, its a pleasure to learn from them. wish I joined this gym sooner!

G. P.

So much to recommend about GB Horsforth: the coaching is top notch, clear and easy to follow. Still got a question about a technique? Coach Magnus and Professor Oliver are friendly and approachable, happy to break it down into more detail as necessary. The same goes for the other members: everyone is friendly, welcoming, and eager to help each other out with training whether it's a bit of advice or tips on a technique, or pushing you a little bit harder to stretch your limits, or slowing it down to focus on the details. The facilities are some of the best I've trained in, always clean with a really professional feel to the whole academy. The timetable gives you loads of options when to train, whether you have to fit one or two lessons around other commitments, or if you're getting in six days a week.

Been training here for just over 2 months now and I must say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. BJJ has helped me physically and even more mentally. Gracie Barra Horsforth has such a friendly and professional atmosphere with excellent instructors, everyone is respectful and encouraging and it makes learning easier and fun. I would 110% recommend!

D. B.

Amazing coaching!!! It starts from the top. Everybody looks to help each other grow and develop whilst retaining a supportive and friendly atmosphere. This is no easy culture to develop and maintain, but has been done so by coach Magnus. Could not recommend highly enough!

A.

Amazing place to train, great atmosphere, great team spirit and coach Magnus is great takes time to explain techniques and always has time to help you fine tune your techniques. The facilities are always clean there's ample off street parking and there's enough classes to suit all abilities and schedules. Would highly reccomend to anybody looking to start BJJ or even just get into shape.

R.

Really good experience at Gracie Barra Horsforth! A really good set up at the facility and the head coach , Magnus, is very approachable, very knowledgeable and has a good training style. There is a good number of classes throughout the week, which are great for all shift patterns! I would highly recommend Gracie Barra Horseforth to anyone considering Jiu jitsu!

E. C.

I have been training for a few months and I've never done martial art's before. But I must say I love it and every lesson I am learning fast and something new. In addition, the atmosphere is relaxing, yet I am challenging myself and learning a lot from others. Each trainee is welcoming and supportive with everyone, especially with new people. The Coach is fantastic, professional and supportive and cares a lot about our progress and helps us improve when we make any mistakes. He supports everyone's training even if the class has many attendees. I recommend Gracia Barra Horsforth Leeds to everyone.

Z. A.

Joining the academy with no prior experience or knowledge of BJJ felt daunting at first but it has quickly become one of the best decisions I've made in some time. The knowledge and humility of everyone who trains and of the coaches makes it such a welcoming and energising environment. Feels like more than just a sport, it has helped develop my mindset outside of the academy in ways I wouldn't have appreciated beforehand!

J. N.

Amazing place to train and push your limits. Great friendly environment with good coaches and clean matts. Always feel very welcome and comfortable when training, the coaches have done a great job at creating a learning friendly environment

A. R.

Fantastic environment and culture set by coach Magnus and professor Oliver. Great place to train, learn and meet friends. Would recommend this gym to anyone looking to get into jiu jitsu be it to compete, self defence, fitness or just have fun.

T. S.

GB Horsforth has great facilities, Coach Magnus is a great coach and really helps one on one with technique. There is a real brotherhood environment.

S. T.

The gym is fantastic and always clean. Coach Magnus is friendly, encouraging and extremely knowledgeable. All other members create a great training atmosphere that I enjoys week in week out! . All round superb place to train.

L. N.

I’ve trained with Ollie, Mat and Magnus for 4 years now. All great coaches , and really nice people. The atmosphere when you train is very friendly and promotes a helpful safe learning environment. Your individual needs are well catered for and regardless of your age or ability you will have a great time. There is an amazing kids program with the sessions tailored for the various age groups. My son started training with me and neither of us has looked back. If you’re nervous about starting training, don’t be,all ages shapes and sizes train and everyone helps each other out. It really is like a big family, I cannot recommend highly enough.

m. l.

Great training (changes every half week so always fresh and engaging) great facilities (big matt area, tidy clean changing rooms) , great people (to inspire and learn from)!

N. N.

Amazing place to get in shape, learn self-defense and meet great people. Coaches are very professional and good at explaining every detail. If you're looking to take it more seriously, there are also tough competition classes.

M. H.

I can't recommend this place enough. Coach Magnus and Professor Oliver are incredibly patient and knowledgeable. The members themselves are kind and committed to developing one another. It's such a fantastic learning environment for BJJ and not to mention super fun! 10/10

N. S.

I can only say good words. It is the perfect place and partners to start practicing jiu jitsu in Leeds. Coach Magnus gives a personalized and quality treatment to each student making them part of the Gracie Barra family.

S. H.

Been training jits for 10 years and just changed gyms to gb horsforth. This is by far the friendliest gym. Instruction is on point. My two little girls attend the kids classes and Magnus has so much patience, the girls love it and are getting so much out of it. 10/10 highly recommend! Osss

A. K.

I have been training here just less than a month and loving it so far. Magnus is a great coach and always there to help with anything you need, whether that be questions or to go over any moves again. What's really good is that everyone there helps each other out.

J. W.

This is a very professional and safe setting for children to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The main coach, Magnus, and Professor Oliver are absolutely fantastic with the children giving motivational encouragement and teaching skills and techniques to develop them weekly. The assistant coaches do a great job ensuring all classes are supported and techniques are demonstrated. We love watching and sharing the learning experience. When children are rewarded everyone celebrates and this spurs the children on. We love it but more importantly our son loves going three times a week.

C. K.

I've been attending the school now for 2 months and feel like I've learnt so much so quickly. It's because of Coach Magnus's enthusiasm, clear instruction and extra time he is comitted to giving every single member to help them master a move and learn extra information to help with tricks and tips to help when fighting in competition. The students are friendly and welcoming. They help you adjust and tweek moves to make sure you perfect a move, when executing it. They will also give you additional knowledge and skills, which helps you advance in your journey of progression within Jiu-jitsu. There is a growing number of females attending this academy, and I myself, being a woman, appriciate the opportunity to practice with other women. The place is a new, well-decorated and clean environment. There is plenty of mat space and there is coffee, drinks and protien bars available. The organisation, timing and proffesional delivery of programmes is excellent. I would reccommend visiting the academy. It is well worth the money and the group organise socials and days out and we would be delighted to have more people on the team.

P. D.

I’ve been training here for a little over a month now and so far love it! Everyone is helpful and encouraging trying to get you to reach your best. Coach Magnus is very knowledgable and instructs in a clear and calm manner. Also no attitude or ego here unlike some other boxing and martial arts clubs, people just want to train and have fun while they are learning. Great for people new to BJJ!

T. G.

Great place to begin your Jiu-Jitsu journey or to continue. I started my journey in Jan 2022 and have not looked back. I have learnt so much in the sessions - from coach and fellow students. Easy 5 stars from me!

L. C.

Great coaches and a welcoming team, highly recommend for anyone wanting to start BJJ, wanting to learn self defence or for general fitness. Sessions are well structured and enjoyable with coaches providing support through out.

M. B.

Great place to go as a complete beginner to Brazilian JiuJitsu, everyone is very friendly and helpful when you’re just starting out with very clean and sanitary facilities. Coach Magnus and Professor Oliver both top guys eager to see you improve every session. Marshall.

J. H.

Started officially training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu here the day the doors opened and I’ve been hooked ever since! I’m trying to get there more and more often thanks to the professionalism of the coaching and the warm and helpful attitude of all the students! No egos here, just coaches and students trying to better themselves and those around them. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

L. Z.

Awesome BJJ gym, great guys and great coach, I'm an absolute beginner to BJJ and loving the support I'm receiving not only from the coach but also the members! Great place to learn! Onwards and upwards!

E. T.

Fantastic place to train. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. If you're interested in taking up BJJ then come down.

A. R.

Fantastic place to train and learn a brilliant martial art taught by friendly, helpful high quality coaches. Plenty of mat space and a great welcoming family atmosphere with no egos. Absolutely love it.

R. R.

I have trained in a number of jiu-jitsu schools over the past 4 years and I can honestly say that this one is the best that I have trained at. To start off the facilities are fantastic and spotlessly maintained. But the best attribute of the school are the coaches and professor who are professional and well organised. Whilst at many other gyms, the training programs are run on an ad hoc basis, the program at Gracie Barra Horsforth is organised and structured meaning that you walk away feeling like you are learning and progressing along with the other students around you. I highly recommend Gracie Barra Horsforth.

J. P.

Gracie Barra Horsforth have an amazing team of coaches. They're EXTREMELY HELPFUL and APPROACHABLE, they really make you feel at ease. If you want to get into martial arts I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting in touch with Gracie Barra Horsforth!

J. A.

A great place to learn BJJ, the coaches are very friendly, there are plenty of classes for beginners and more experienced practitioners. Well worth a look!

C. L.

Absolutely fantastic place to train, good friendly environment with high quality coaches. Highly recommend to anyone looking to start or continue Jiu Jitsu classes.

D. F.

Great facility, great group of people and most importantly Magnus and Matt are great coaches. Wether you want to learn self defence, compete in jiu jitsu or just get fit, GB horsforth is the best place to train. “Organizados como um time, Lutando como uma familia”

M. E.

Gracie Barra Horsforth really is an amazing place. Coaches Magnus and Matt not forgetting Professor Oliver are 3 of life’s “great guys” they love watching students grow and the team is developing into a Brotherhood where everyone is here to help one another. No egos allowed, training is on 6 days a week if you want both lunch and evening class. Come down, give it a try or come for a coffee and chat.

R. R.

Amazing dojo with friendly instructors and students. People talk with each other and are congratulatory when you get your stripes and level up. Its a brilliant place in Leeds to learn BJJ!

A. l.

I went here for the first time today after never doing anything like this before all I can say is I loved how professional it was and how welcoming they all was. I can't wait to become a part of this club. I am so looking forward to going again. It has definitely given me the chance to do something that I have always wanted to do in a safe environment. If you are thinking of doing this I couldn't recommend this place anymore. Thank you Magnus and your club for a fantastic first day introduction to jiu jitsu

O. K.

A fantastic new jiu jitsu gym, which was much needed in West Leeds. Powered by very friendly and knowledgeable coaches and a great team behind it. I would highly recommended for any beginners in Bjj

K.

I was so nervous to start jui-jitsu as a woman with no martial arts background but the coaches have been so approachable and respectful, the whole experience has been fantastic. I come out of every session having worked harder than any fitness class I've done before ! Fantastic team I could not be more happy to learn from
