Morning classes can be arranged through private lessons. We will have group classes in the morning but not at the moment.

For any gi classes you should bring your own washed gi, belt and a bottle of water. For any other classes bring either your gym clothes (t-shirt and shorts/sweatpants/leggings) or the no gi equipment (long sleeve rashguard, shorts and spats).

You don’t need to spar if you don’t want. Sparring is good to improve your technique but your safety is our priority, so if you don’t feel like sparring (doesn’t matter why) just let the instructor know beforehand so that he is aware of your request.

You should buy your gi when you attend to any gi class. Gi is the traditional uniform for Jiu Jitsu.

We do sell no gi equipment, more specifically rash guards, spats and shorts. Feel free to ask to check them out.

We are located inside Alpha Grove, a community center in the Isle of Dogs, just 10 minutes walk from Canary Wharf.

At the moment we do not have showers.

The mat is usually 540 square feet (54 square meters), but for busier classes can increase to almost 700 square feet.

Yes, we do provide private classes either individually or as a package – please go to the membership area or send an email to hello@canarywharfbjj.com
