North12 Martial Arts Academy

This is an amazing Academy!! My two boys have been completely transformed they are happy and confident now , they are being taught invaluable life skills from coach David and his team. I can honestly not thank them enough for all their hard work !! Thank you :)

Excellent, clear, well-structured instruction from a 3rd degree BJJ black belt and black belt in multiple other martial arts. Fantastic sense of community. Professor David and all the instructors at North 12 go the extra mile to cultivate a club that is not only fun but also pushes me to reach my potential. He is genuinely invested in my advancement, as well as that of every other student. The premises are spotless and the atmosphere is welcoming. Highly recommended!

I'm a purple belt and I've been training at North12 for over a year now. Coming in as an experienced student, I have learnt more in the past year here then I have since I started training Jiujitsu. Amazing coaches with world class teaching ability and technical knowledge. Very clean facilities, spacious and well maintained.The level of the students is also very high, on average the most technically advanced individuals I've ever trained with, across the board from White belt up to Brown belt; Which is a clear reflection on the coaches and their teaching abilities. I would recommend North12 to anyone; from complete beginner to black belt.

I thought I would wait 6 months before I left a review. My son aged 6 started BJJ back in January and all I can say is his confidence has been built so much. He is quite a shy boy but he really looks forward to these lessons and I feel like it pushes him out of his comfort zone. Coach David and all the other teachers are all respectively fun and well disciplined. There are hard rules there for young children to follow but David does such a good job at balancing that with humour and keeping the children laughing!I really do recommend this club for children and I’m sure the adults classes are probably equally as fun!

Been training here for about 2 months and it’s a very welcoming place, every session makes me want to come back more and i find i’m always learning something new from the great selection of coaches.

Highly recommend North12. My children have been attending for over a year now. Coaches are kind, patient and encouraging. They set clear boundaries; developing discipline and self-confidence in each child. My children love their sessions and their knowledge of jujitsu, their confidence and their fitness levels have all improved massively. Coach David and his team are absolutely awesome.

Can’t rate this dojo highly enough…I am 51 and have been training here for over a year… I have to say North12 is run like an outstanding school.Students what ever their age, what ever their ability feel safe and welcome here. The progress by us the students is remarkable and evident even in one lesson. The facilities are great, well maintained and most importantly for a dojo spotless clean. With any school, staff are the most important asset. The coaches here are nothing but exceptional. Their love, passion and experience for their individual areas of expertise pours into lessons and inspires the students to be better, to try harder and to practice beyond the dojo walls.The camaraderie between students and with their coaches is heartwarming and rare in in such an adrenaline fuelled environment. None of this is possible without a the professor. Like any great head teacher, he not only has a vision of how to create an outstanding dojo but that vision is shared and backed by experience, expertise and his own great deliver of lessons and constant visibility and quality assurance. Cannot recommend North12 highly enough.Sorry to make this sound like an Ofsted report… but at the end of the day this is a school with the capacity to transform lives.

My son Harrison started last November so I have waited a while before leaving a review. This place is amazing. From the incredible coaches to the immaculate venue, all under the watchful eye of Professor David, I can’t speak highly enough. They have achieved the perfect balance of fun, learning and discipline. It’s tough to keep an eight-year-old boy interested in anything for more than five minutes, so that says everything. Keep up the amazing work!

My two girls have been learning Brazilian Jiu-jitsu at North 12 Academy for over 8 months now & from the first contact we had with Coach David & his team we felt so comfortable and in the best hands. It is an amazing place for children to learn new and life changing skills with the absolute best teachers, who are both nurturing but firm.Great & super clean facilities, lots of classes to choose from, friendly and warm staff & last but not least award winning coaches.A great place to train for both kids & adults.
