Testimonials

“I had the honor of stopping by Factory BJJ while on a tour of the U.K and I must say Adam is one of the best instructors I have ever seen teach.

Not only is Adam a great instructor but he is truly a great guy with an awesome group of students and facility!”

Adam Adshead is a fantastic coach. He has an excellent technical knowledge, and can convey this well to his students.

More importantly, though, he has an obvious love for the sport, and will go out of his way to help his students improve.

He helped me out greatly when training for the ADCC tournament, and gave me several pointers that really helped my game. I’d highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn jiu jitsu.”

“I just love training with the Factory BJJ guys!
Adam is so technically orientated, so creative in his approach to Jiu Jitsu, that grappling with him is like playing a game of chess while running an obstacle course!”

Factory BJJ provides the kind of grass-roots training that has always appealed most strongly to me in my martial arts travels.

The culture that Adam has built on his mat is one of mutual respect and infectious enthusiasm. I absolutely loved my recent visit and cannot wait to get back there next year.”

“This was my first ever seminar in the UK and the guys all treated me with a lot of respect. The club has a great atmosphere with a great group of people to train with.

I look forward to going back to roll and train with them again soon and would highly recommend that anyone looking for a club in that area should check out Factory BJJ.”

Factory BJJ is a fantastic place to train. When I first began training I was a little nervous, but everyone welcomed me with open arms.
I enjoy training at Factory BJJ for many reasons a few of them being – the atmosphere of the gym is great, no matter what sex you are you are treated equally and the coaches are highly professional and very helpful.

I would strongly recommend to all women and men who wish to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to come and down and join the club!”

“When I started training at Factory BJJ I was the only woman and I was worried about training with all men but I have always been made to feel welcome.
The coaching at Factory BJJ is great; Adam and the rest of the coaches are always on hand to give advice when you need it.
Women are in the minority in BJJ but I am lucky enough to have some great female training partners, as well as lots of great male training partners of all levels. Factory BJJ has a relaxed atmosphere but everyone trains hard and has fun at the same time.“
