Modern Jiu-Jitsu with traditional martial arts principles

As a self-defence martial art, our practice is centered around grappling, ground fighting and holding submissions. Jiu-Jitsu works the mind and the body, applying the principles of pressure, leverage and timing to achieve non-violent submissions.

At Chess Club, we pride ourselves on offering a safe place to learn modern jiu-jitsu techniques whilst maintaining the art’s traditional values. All ages and abilities are welcome in our dojo. Alongside exercising and having fun, you’re also learning a skill that could potentially save your life. Get started today!
