Thrive Jiu Jitsu Academy

Great friendly environment, very knowledgeable coaching. New gym is amazing. Definitely recommend.

I joined the free self defence class for women and on the first day I was made to feel welcome and at ease by coach Naomi and the rest of the team. The class itself was very informative and all the techniques were well explained and demonstrated. I also brought my son here for a kids trial class and he loved it from the beginning and quickly settled in. The kids class coaches have a great approach and my son now attends the kids classes on a regular with a smile. I highly recommend Thrive!

Amazing place to train, and by far the best BJJ gym I have been a part of. The coaches are excellent and have created a friendly and inclusive environment to train in. There is a strong team spirit and I encourage anyone who is considering taking up jiu jitsu to come and visit Thrive. The new training facility they have just opened is a great bonus too

Thrive Jiu Jitsu is an incredible place to learn, develop and have fun. I’ve been attending the Ladies Self Defence classes run by Naomi who is an excellent coach who helps and encourages every step of the way. The atmosphere is really relaxed and the classes are very enjoyable and structured in a way that makes it easy to learn. All of the Ladies who attend the classes are really welcoming, supportive and friendly and keen to help each other. I’d highly recommend Thrive Jiu Jitsu to anyone who is looking to learn new skills and meet a great group of people :-)

I started jiu jitsu to learn new skills and give purpose to my fitness, but ended up becoming part of huge family.The best jiu jitsu facilities and club in Peterborough. I particularly like the raised insulated mats :)If you are looking to learn, sweat and find your second family, then Thrive Jiu Jitsu Academy is the place to be.It's not just about jiu jitsu, it's about thriving in life

I recently joined Thrive Jiu Jitsu academy, and I'm extremely impressed. Mark and Vini are highly knowledgeable and experienced, providing excellent guidance to students of all levels. The training sessions are well-structured, challenging, and inclusive. The academy and it's members fosters a strong sense of community that makes beginners like me feel so welcomed. Couldn't recommend enough.

I joined Thrive Jiu Jitsu Academy in Peterborough when it opened a couple of months ago and can't say enough good things about it. Both black belt coaches are excellent and have very different styles of BJJ to each other meaning one of them is always ready to offer advice/help with the many Jiu Jitsu problems you will experience. Questions are encouraged and the students are never made to feel like they have asked a stupid" question. I have previously trained at other gyms and can honestly say that the improvements I have made at Thrive far exceed anything I have experienced and I can't wait to continue my journey with this team. Everybody at the club is very friendly and positive always pushing others to succeed in whatever they aim to gain from the sport. I started this martial art for fitness and to learn something new over 16 months ago

Highly recommend Thrive! I go to the Women’s self defense class on Friday nights. Naomi is such a great teacher, very knowledgeable and always makes the classes enjoyable! Lovely group of women attend the class and everyone makes you feel comfortable.

I have only been with Thrive a few months now and can say what a welcoming and encouraging group they are. I’ve trained in several martial arts over the years and the general feeling and atmosphere within a club is a real big thing for me and has put me off before. I’ve had members I don’t know come over and say hi, ask how I’m getting on, offer advice, share a joke, making me feel relaxed each sessions so far. Both instructors are knowledgeable in their BJJ and teach in a friendly manner, they welcome questions and understand your individual ability and help advise on how to adjust your technique to get the best out of it yourself. I’ve not felt pressured by them to attend every class, buy their equipment ect like I have at other clubs. I fully recommend Thrive, not just those wanting to try out BJJ but anyone wanting to work on fitness and socialise. I look forward to being a member going on.
