Fantastic experience: I've been going here for the last to years for the parent and me class, it's an incredible class on many levels, not only has it offered me to give my child skills of self defence and technical thinking, but it's also been a great bonding experience with my child as well. At first it seemed we were just learning various moves but after a few months seeing it all come together as a intuitive sequence and a genuine combat skill is somewhat mind blowing. His mum now has serious trouble trying to play wrestle with him which is both funny and great to see. Great family atmosphere, couldn't recommend it enough!!

Today we got to see their promotion, where Adam and the other instructors helped the class to demonstrate their skills in a fun and inclusive way. Everybody there is really friendly and the whole place has a positive vibe to it. If you are thinking about starting BJJ then I would highly recommend checking out Factory BJJ.
Fantastic experience: Factory BJJ has been unbelievable for my three kids, training in Jiu-Jitsu now for over a year. One of them is autistic and absolutely loves it. The coaches (Adam & Leroy) are great with all the kids, creating a supportive and inclusive environment. My kids have gained loads of confidence since training and they are loving learning the best martial art, in the best gym in the North West!!
Fantastic experience: A really friendly place to train. My sons have been coming here for a while now, and it's really helped their confidence. Both have ADHD, we had previously tried other BJJ classes, but nowhere felt as welcoming & inclusive as Factory BJJ. Great coaches that not only help the kids with techniques, but help them grow as individuals.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Factory for nearly 2 years now and I really enjoy the experience. In particular, Adam (head coach) is a brilliant teacher - he explains sometimes complex information in simple terms, ensures that everybody has understood, and offers practical support where needed. Adam is a very encouraging coach and notices when students do something right - this supportive and positive approach makes a real difference. The gym is also filled with training partners with a similarly supportive attitude and I really couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely awesome club, couldn't recommend it more.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic club. A great mix of classes at all hours and a lot of advanced belts always willing to offer advice.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic place to come and not only learn BJJ but also meet friendly people and coaching staff. Great facilities and classes to suit all levels 7 days a week.
Fantastic experience: An absolutely incredible place to train BJJ. The head coach, Adam, is fantastic and incredibly patient with those of us who BJJ doesn’t come naturally to I probably wouldn’t have stuck it out if it wasn’t for Adam and his teaching style.
Fantastic experience: I must say Factory BJJ is a quality training set up to learn the art of jui jitsu. It's a community I'm proud to be part of and honoured to be taught by Adam and the lads. It's a 10/10 and even the music is spot on Don't be shy give ut a try!
Fantastic experience: my son has been training at the factory for over a year and he absolutely loves it. He has improved so much in a short space of time. we entered our son in a BJJ tournament a few months back and he won it. I strongly recommend Adams gym for bjj.
Fantastic experience: Top place, very welcoming. Good mix of classes so you can roll with junior and senior belts. Adding more classes like yoga and S+C sessions which is great. Really enjoy it
Fantastic experience: As a 39 year old, complete beginner to BJJ, this place has been brilliant! Great coaching, friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Started the intro course in Summer 22. Quality of the intro course and included Gi is great. Progressed to the White Belt classes now and enjoying the quality coaching from Adam and Pete.
Fantastic experience: If you are looking to get into a form of self defence or martial arts then I would 110% recommend factory BJJ. Not only is it fun and a great way to stay fit it’s also great for mental health. Adam is an absolute amazing guy who will give anyone the time of day and not let anyone feel uncomfortable whilst there. Regardless of your gender, height, weight you won’t fell left out. Everyone is there to help each other and help improve one and another. The only thing I will say is if you are serious about wanting to do this you will have to invest a lot of time into it (unfortunately I wasn’t but my brother in law is now a blue bet in which he did in 16 months) But Adam will make sure you get there if you devote your time. Trying to get my daughter to go to the Saturday classes as I feel this would be great for her to let off energy whilst learning to defend herself.
Fantastic experience: Thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Adam is a very high level competator and coach with a wealth of knowlege to share. Very approachable and happy to help all students. Great atmosphere, good people and we're very welcoming on my visit. Look forward to coming back.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been at Factory for I think, about 12 years! The culture is fantastic catering for all types of individuals whichever mindset you have towards martial arts. The atmosphere is very collegiate and the group diverse. Needless to say, as a way to improve fitness and general health BJJ is on point. There are morning and evening classes as well classes on both Saturday and Sunday. The standard of instruction is also very high and is recognised by the peer group nationally and indeed internationally!
Fantastic experience: Amazing club! I’ve trained at a few bjj clubs and Factory is the best by a mile. Super friendly staff, everyone is really helpful, excellent lessons. Perfect place for the beginner right through to serious competitor.
Fantastic experience: Adam at FactoryBJJ has created such a great community - for an friendly environment to learn BJJ. It can be quite daunting starting a new hobby/matrial art but Adam's passion and friendly nature shines through and makes you feel at ease. The members at the club are helpful and everyone is on hand to offer tips or advice in becoming better at BJJ. Could not recommend joining FactoryBJJ enough! Best decision I've made.
Fantastic experience: Dropped in at Factory a few times as a friend trains there. Amazing atmosphere and attitude towards beginners (like me). I was helped by everyone I rolled with and would highly recommend to anyone thinking of starting BJJ!
Fantastic experience: Great place to train. As a newbie woman in BJJ, I feel both welcomed and challenged in the best possible ways. The coaching team is excellent and very helpful. Safe and comfortable environment to practice. The cherry on top is that the vibes are great (with an occasional MF Doom and other great tunes as soundtrack).
Fantastic experience: Started at Factory about 18 months ago and it's one of the best thing's I've done! Really great place, a welcoming environment with plenty of really experienced members always willing to help out. Tons of classes available with great instructors. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: After researching gyms in my local area I settled on Factory as I read lots of good things about the quality of teaching and the atmosphere. The reviews couldn’t have been more true! From day 1 I was welcomed as a fully fledged member of the team and some of the more experienced took me under their wing (still do!). If you’re thinking about it like I was, give Adam a call/message, you won’t regret it!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place to train, amazing coaches and members. I've trained at factory for just over a year now and I've enjoyed every session. Adam, the coaching team and all the members were friendly and welcoming when I first started. All in all a fantastic gym and community.
Fantastic experience: Signed up to Factory around 2 years ago and my only regret is that wish I’d started sooner. Great Coach, Great gym and a Great and welcoming atmosphere have kept me turning up to every lesson I can make. I can’t recommend this gym enough!
Fantastic experience: Trained here nearly 2 years now and it has been great, all thanks to Adam and the incredible community he has created. This place has helped build my confidence inside and outside of Jiu Jitsu, all the coaching staff are amazing, friendly and always willing to help.
Positive experience: Good training space and typically the people who go are very decent, but the head coach Adam can be an antisocial nob. If he is having a bad day and you break a rule of some kind (like leaving an item of clothing somewhere it shouldn't be left) then he will visibly lose it and shout at you like you're a naughty child in front of everybody there. A lot of people have quit because of him personally. If you aren't very extroverted and able to butter him up then be prepared for occasional tension, or go to morning classes to avoid him.
Fantastic experience: High level Jiu Jitsu gym with great facilities, the training you receive is second to none, Adam has a great in-depth and technical approach which makes the learning all that much easier. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I wanted a training environment that was friendly, clean, technical, physically and mentally challenging and open everyday day. I got that at Factory. Adam’s detail oriented coaching is second to none, delivered in a friendly manner drawing on years of experience and always happy to help answer any questions.
Fantastic experience: It is one of my favourite places to spend my free time. Here I can progress in a practical martial art with many friendly and helpful people on different belt levels. Adam, the head coach, has a casual, funny and detailed teaching style that I find easy to engage with. I can only suggest this gym to anyone no matter their age or gender. Warning: you will be hooked.
Fantastic experience: Been training at FactoryBJJ for sometime now. The training space and style is a very welcoming place. Head coach Adam has always been very supportive with a great teaching style. The rest of the factory staff also help to make it a friendly environment to train. 10/10 fully recommend for anyone wishing to start Jiu Jitsu.
Fantastic experience: I've been a member at Factory for just under 2 years now. I can honestly say that joining here and learning Jui Jitsu under Adam has been one of the best decisions I've made. Walking into an environment that is completely unfamiliar for the first time and learning a brand new skill is always gonna be challenging. But facing that and coming through the other side has benefitted my life across the board in ways I couldn't have expected. Adams ability to teach to all levels (even complete beginners like me) is top notch and the way that he is able to communicate seemingly complex techniques into easily understandable steps shows great skill and understanding. Ive always felt the support is there if needed from him, the other coaches and teammates.
Fantastic experience: Really enjoying training at Factory BJJ. There's a variety of classes throughout the day, everyday, and the coaching is top tier. I've found everyone super friendly and welcoming - especially as a woman training in male dominated sport, it can be quite intimidating but Factory is one of those clubs that just feels holistically inclusive. It's like a second home and has sparked my enthusiasm and joy for training jiujitsu again for which I'm most thankful for
Fantastic experience: Highly highly recommend this gym. From complete beginners to black belt. You’re going to be welcome here all the time. Morning and afternoon classes are available. Adam, Steve, Salem are always helpful and the whole team is just class. No matter how skilled you are you are always welcome in the gym. People’s attitude is just fantastic. 10 starts out of 5
Fantastic experience: Deciding to start BJJ in your 50's is probably not for the faint hearted but right from day one I was impressed with the welcoming, relaxed and friendly atmosphere which allayed any concerns I might have had. The teaching is top notch and enjoyable from Adam and the other coaching staff too. Adam is always very approachable and willing to spend time to explain something or answer any questions I might have. I think BJJ is insanely good for you, both physically and mentally, and it’s been a fantastic experience for me. So, if you’re knocking on a bit and want to try a more fun and interesting way of keeping fit and staying young, I can think on no better place or accepting environment than Factory BJJ.
