Even though the Gorilla Gym does place a substantial emphasis on the most effective of all stand up fighting Arts; Muay Thai Boxing, the Gorilla Gym isn’t just a Boxing, or Kickboxing Gym.
Even though the Gorilla Gym does place a large emphasis on the extremely neglected aspect of fighting inside the clinch, which includes strikes (elbows, knees, hands, and so on), takedowns and throws (from Greco Roman wrestling, freestyle, and BJJ), and positional control (from Greco Roman, and Muay Thai), the Gorilla Gym is not a wrestling Gym, or MMA “fight club”.
The Gorilla Gym is about people, and our mission is to provide the state-of-the-art in self defence, combat athletics, fitness, and personal growth, to each and every type of human body that walks through our doorway. Not just 20 Year old Athletes (although they will undoubtedly get what they need right here also), but to professionals who have to work 40 hour weeks. To females of all ages. To older men and women, trying to get into shape, have fun, and learn self defence. To youngsters of all ages who can discover martial arts in a positive environment of friendship and fun.
Gorilla Gym is for everyBODY.

About BJJ Classes in Stoke On Trent
Not all BJJ classes are equal, in fact some are certainly greater than others. Regardless of the desire for wishing yourself or your child to study BJJ, we know that you don’t seek to waste time learning one, only to find that it doesn’t really work for the real world. We also know that you do not wish to discover later that there is BJJ classes elsewhere in Stoke that better prepares people for the reality of defending ones self or our loved ones.
For these reasons, our club is unique in that it only offers BJJ that has been proven effective in competition and on the street.
Why are BJJ classes in Stoke On Trent trained with functionality in mind?
It’s a healthier way to train. A good BJJ gym in Stoke On Trent will provide an environment where healthy competition is encouraged and the class gain confidence in the self-defence skills they’ve earned – as well as their improved fitness level.
And, most importantly, the BJJ training is enjoyable. After all, if it weren’t enjoyable, our members wouldn’t be coming back week after week.
The skills are directly relevant to street self-defence situations. BJJ for self defence emphasizes awareness of the immediate environment, conflict recognition and de-escalation. Fighting, as it should be, is a last resort.
BJJ exponents know that their skills are functional as they make them work against resistance, every practice. They can focus on the more important aspects of training: enjoyment and personal growth.
Oh, and did we mention that they also have fun!
Functional Fitness and Stress Reduction at BJJ Stoke On Trent
What is fantastic for developing self-defence skills is also good for developing real world fitness. Because BJJ involves constant, adaptive movement of the entire body (rather than static positions or robotic exercises), it is an excellent means of getting in shape and reducing stress.
And unlike many of the fad workouts promoted in the media today, our BJJ classes in Stoke On Trent are never boring. Training for performance by its very nature requires your concentration, interaction, and involvement in what you are doing. As much as it’s about developing new skills, it is also about being in the moment. That’s natural stress relief at its best!
