Autumn Reload 2025

Price Review

Ok , so let's get the negative stuff out of the way. I have been reviewing the prices of our memberships and compared to all the competition we are significantly cheaper, especially considering the timetable we offer. With the increase in running costs, we're in a position where we need to increase our prices across the board.

Please see the new prices below.

Mini's £40 per month - Juniors £60 per month - Teens £60 per month - Adults £95 per month

This increase will be implemented from January 2026. If you have any issues with this or want to discuss this further please don't hesitate to get in touch. Again, thank you all for your support.

Competition News

BJJ All Stars South

Last weekend we attended the BJJ All Stars South in Crystal Palace with 9 competitors.

We made a phenomenal showing, achieving a whopping 8 Golds and 4 Silver medals. Earning 6th place for all clubs and playing our part to get Checkmat as the comps top team.
This is an awesome achievement considering there were 1122 competitors in total.

This was the first time that we had any of our Teens compete also, which has given me a lot to work on as a coach.

It was amazing to see everyones progress, implimenting a lot of the techniques and stratagy we have been working in class and private sessions.

Massive thanks to the team for their efforts and supporting the club.

A special thanks to Gate for assisting with coaching duties 👊

Student Focus -

(Double) Dave Crowther

Over the past few months Dave suffered some potentially serious injuries. Injuries that would put a lot of people off getting back on the mat. However, Dave was not. Infact he worked his arse off, determined to get back to where he left off.

Not only did he achieve this, he recently won DOUBLE GOLD at comp.

Just so this story doesn't put you off. Dave's significant injuries for the most part were NOT BJJ related.

Awesome job Dave!

1 Year Celebrations and Grading

After our 1st year, our club is growing and going from strenght to strenght. What better way to celebrate than a Grading.

We handed out many well deserved stripes and even 2 Belts this time.

It's important that you or your child understands that these stripes are personal to the individual and we award these for a variety of reasons and that the learning curve in BJJ is far from being linear. Not the only, but a great way to test your ability is by competing. If you or child is interested in this, then please let me know.

Club Gi's, Rashguards and Shorts - Pre Order NOW!

We are in the last steps of finalising the new kit.

Apologies for the delay. It turns out that Andy's Pakistani isn't as good as he thought 🤦‍♂️. We want our products to be right!

We will be reaching out for pre-orders imminently via the WhatsApp Groups for each age group.

Juniors Open Mat - Memento Mori - Reigate

9am Saturday 13th December at Memento Mori BJJ in Reigate, we are holding a Juniors Open mat. This will give the opportunity for the juniors to roll and test their skills against the students in Reigate and other friendly gyms. It will be a fun and chilled environment, not like a competition environment. Let me know if anyone is interested or would like to know more.

Community running club

Just a reminder that outside The Armoury on Tuesdays at 6pm, some of the fitness crew, who work with Adam have organised a weekly run/walk. Word on the street is that there's a Whatsapp group for those who take part.

Get in touch if want to get involved. Close friends and family welcome. This week they did a comfortable 4.5k

Just to clarify, this activity is NOT being organised and/or supervised by Adam and The Armoury. Just a nice community led activity suitable for all levels and abilities.

Members Page

Don't forget to keep checking our Members Page for all the latest Content and technique instructionals.

With it being Mens Mental Health Month, regardless of gender it's important to remember why we train and what we get out of it. For many including myself, this sport is a form of therapy. I personally know some of your struggles, please remember that we are part of a supportive community that can lean on each other and learn from each other. 👊

Until our next Reload... Keep training!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined the Armoury about a year ago now and it was the first time doing martial arts as an adult. When I joined I had nothing but encouragement and support from the gym, such a great environment to learn BJJ and escape life’s general stress. Been to other gyms and no other has the same vibe.

Andy has created a great environment and a proper family here!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Armoury is a fantastic place to learn BJJ. I have been coming to classes for just under a year and Andy is an amazing instructor. He has built an incredible environment that is so welcoming to everyone. There are so many great, friendly and supportive people here with a real team culture.

Andy’s classes are always so detailed, safe and structured and he pays great attention to detail to everyone.

The best place to train!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’d never done any sort of martial arts before joining, to be honest I’d always felt it’d be awkward to join and setup but my good friend started a week before and said Coach Andy was different level.
6 months on and I’m absolutely loving it. From my first session, was welcomed into the community by the team - who are always happy to help you learn and Andy has an awesome way of teaching. Ego gets left at the door and everyone respects the sport and each other. If you’re considering getting involved, don’t hesitate!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andy is a fantastic coach and is very welcoming to those new to BJJ. As an older starter I was apprehensive about training, but right from Day 1 I was put at ease by Andy and how friendly everybody was. There is a great mix of levels and ages training here.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andy always makes you feel welcome, and builds great bonds with the children.  my daughter has learnt so much over the last year, from discipline within class to key skills of jujitsu. She always looks forward to the classes and learning new things.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve trained BJJ for a few years now under many coaches and Andy is a class above. When I joined I was surprised at the skill level  of even the newest people in the gym - which all comes down to Andy and the community at the Armory for the coaching and training.

Definitely the best gym in the local area - whether you’re just starting or want to progress your game - here is the perfect place.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is by far one of if not the best sports gym I have been to. It’s a really welcoming place with no judgment it made me feel very welcomed from day 1.
Andy is an amazing coach and really tries to look out for his pupils. Could not recommend this place enough
