Pure Jiu Jitsu is the absolute best place to train. Whether you're just starting out or coming in with experience, training just for the love of the art, training to compete or even training to work on a better you- look no further. Tony, his coaches and his team are all friendly, welcoming people who all share the same passion. My family has been with pure for 8 years and have never looked backs since joining. If you want to better yourself with like minded people in an easy going, judgement free gym, then there is jo better place to be. 5 stars always!

Pure Jiu Jitsu is an amazing, family friendly gym. Tony is an awesome coach and an all round great bloke who is always ready to help you whether it’s in the gym or in your own personal life. I highly recommend Pure to anyone looking at starting a new sport.

My family has been training with Tony at Pure BJJ for 2 1/2 years now, and it’s been a fantastic place to learn, train, grow, and develop - both for me and my young daughters. This is a very family and female-friendly gym, we have been consistently welcomed and supported, and we have loved doing something we would never have normally tried. We have made friends, grown in confidence and strength, and are having fun doing it. If you’re female and are looking to give something totally new (and even a bit daunting) a go, the women’s only classes are a fantastic bonus to the class schedule. 5/5 recommend.

We moved to the Highlands recently and wanted our 7 year old son to practice Jiu Jitsu to improve his self confidence and athleticism. Coach Tony and his team have been absolutely brilliant, our son loves the classes and we love being part of the Pure Jiu Jitsu family! Can’t recommend highly enough!

We have been going to Pure Jiu Jitsu since 2022 and we have had a great experience here and highly recommend Tony as a coach. My daughter has recently joined now and she has so much more confidence thanks to her training.
