Our Testimonies

“If you’re curious about learning self-defence - Rob Williams BJJ is a great place to start! As a late 30’s, Mum of 3 with no martial arts experience and a range of health issues, I was hesitant & self-conscious to ‘try’ jiu jitsu. Then I realised there was no perfect time to start learning - ‘bad guys’ aren’t going to wait for me to be fit, healthy or injury-free to attack me if they wanted to… I have to learn these skills now! Nearly 1 year into my journey I am loving the way that Gracie jiu jitsu works with your bodies limitations - jiu jitsu is the right fit for everyone! Now our family of 5 are all learning it! Rob Williams and his star coaches give personalised attention to their students to help them be their best. Rob has created a genuine, friendly & welcoming environment for all to learn! If you're unsure about starting jiujitsu - don’t let your fears hold you back any longer. “

"Rob Williams understands people, and it shows in his teachings. He knows when to be blunt and when to take a softer approach. Rob is not just teaching BJJ; he is creating better humans in all aspects of their lives. My son and I both train here. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to start their BJJ journey to start it here at Rob Williams BJJ. Great people/students that are more than willing to teach and help you nail the drills."

”As an autistic 30-year-old who hasn’t joined anything in over 10 years due to anxiety and all sorts, I would 100% recommend Rob Williams BJJ to anyone. Not only are there great people in the classes, but there's also an amazing coach who goes above and beyond for his students. Looking forward to many more years with these guys and girls. 🤘🏻”

“I started training with Rob a few weeks ago now, and I’m absolutely addicted already! Rob and the other students have been very welcoming to myself and my brothers, and Rob delivers coaching in a way that is fun, easy to understand, and doesn’t overload your mind. It’s a great place to learn new skills and also hang out with some great people, and I can’t recommend Rob enough to anyone who is thinking of learning BJJ!”

“Wow! What more can I say? ⭐ My son has many diagnoses. He is withdrawn, worried, anxious, and he never joins in or tries anything new. He has meltdowns and becomes overwhelmed and overstimulated very quickly. But he loved training with Rob. He joined in without hesitation and did everything asked of him. I was getting thumbs up and smiles all lesson, saying it was great and that he was doing great. Rob is amazing. He has a huge heart and knows exactly how to talk to and train these kids with (and without) special needs. Highly recommend!”

“I have been training BJJ with Rob since August 2022. It was exactly what I needed, and now I’m hooked. Professor Rob and the class made me feel part of a community. Rob has a teaching style that is engaging and technical while being easy and fun. At 35 and starting off very unfit, with a bit of a belly, I am consistently seeing improvement in my stamina, body shape, and quality of sleep. I’m not the sort of person who enjoys going to the gym to exercise, so this is the perfect alternative. It has inspired me to consistently do some cardio at home, not because I want to be able to run a marathon, but because I don’t want to be fatigued when training with our team. Rob has my respect and my gratitude. His mantra is "better every day," and thanks to Rob and our team, I am better than I was yesterday.”
