Start Your Journey — 30 Days Free
Training at our school is different. We don’t throw beginners in the deep end, we don’t force sparring on day one, and we don’t expect you to “keep up.”
Our 30-Day Free Trial gives you time to learn the foundations properly, safely, and at a pace that actually builds confidence.
You’ll discover a welcoming environment where every coach understands what it’s like to start from zero — and where every member remembers their first day.
A Structured Beginner Program — Designed for Adults
Our beginner curriculum breaks BJJ down into small, manageable steps.
You’ll learn:
• Fundamental movements
• Basic escapes and defences
• Core positions
• Simple, effective techniques that work in real life
Each session is clear, calm, and coached with patience.
No pressure, no chaos, no confusion.
Local Knowledge
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Norwich and Norfolk
Norwich has a small but passionate BJJ community, and BJJ Success sits at the heart of it. We were the first dedicated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school to open in Norfolk — and we have been training students continuously since 2003.
Why Norwich Practitioners Choose BJJ
The Norfolk BJJ community has grown steadily over the past two decades. Students come from across the county — from Norwich city centre, from the Broadland villages, from the coast — because consistent, high-quality BJJ instruction has historically been hard to find outside major UK cities.
At BJJ Success, we have taught:
- Complete beginners who had never set foot on a mat
- Former rugby and football players transitioning to grappling
- Children as young as 4, right through to adults in their 60s
- Post-surgery athletes looking to return to training safely
- National-level competitors representing Norfolk on the UK and international stage
What Makes BJJ Success Different in Norfolk
There are very few places in the UK where you can train under an instructor who holds all of the following credentials simultaneously: a legitimate 4th-degree BJJ black belt, a SKILLZ Paediatric Master Specialist qualification (the first and only in the UK), three published books on BJJ-related subjects, and over 27 years of continuous teaching experience in the same region.
That combination is what makes BJJ Success, ICON, the authority on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Norfolk — and why we are trusted by students across the county, year after year.
What to Expect From Your First Visit
Your first session is free and entirely without obligation. You will meet Steven and the team, observe or participate in a class at whatever level feels comfortable, and leave knowing exactly what BJJ training looks like in practice. There is no hard sell and no pressure. If it's the right fit, we'll see you again. If it isn't, we'll do our best to point you in the right direction.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
We Don’t Throw You Into Sparring
You learn the mechanics before the intensity.
Sparring comes only when you’re ready, confident, and fully prepared.
No Mat Bullies. Ever.
We have a zero-ego culture. Everyone trains with respect, awareness, and control.
Your safety and enjoyment come first.
Step-by-Step Guidance
Every class has a clear warm-up, focused lesson, partner practice, and optional progression drills.
Nothing is random. Everything has purpose.
Built for Real Adults — Not Full-Time Athletes
You don’t need to be fit, flexible, young, or experienced.
You simply need to show up, breathe, and take the next step.
WHO THIS IS FOR
• Complete beginners
• Adults returning after years away
• People who feel nervous or unfit
• Anyone who wants a safer, smarter way to train
• Those looking for a non-intimidating, supportive community
The Online Beginner Portal
As part of your 30-Day Free Trial, you also get access to our unique Online Beginner Portal — a private training hub built to help you learn at home, at your own pace.
Inside, you’ll find simple video tutorials that break down every movement you’ll learn in class. This means you’ll never walk in feeling unprepared or unsure. You’ll always know what’s coming, what to expect, and how each technique works before you even step onto the mat.
It’s the perfect support system for nervous beginners, busy adults, and anyone who wants to build confidence faster both in and out of class.
