Itaipava Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA

I will be available Mon - Fri between 10am and 1pm for private lessons in MMA, BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU and NO GI GRAPPLING. Slots available.

£30 per hour.

For clarification on what I do just to save time asking questions....

I'm not a pad man, i do skills training. I am unable to hold pads anymore due to a serious shoulder and back injury. However that does not mean you wont get quality training, i just focus on different things. If you are an absolute beginner i suggest trying classes before private lessons, as you will benefit way more, all of our classes are beginner friendly. That does not mean i wont coach you but priority for me is to aid those already training, I will try to help beginners anyway i can but it starts with trying a class.

I don't do fitness classes, there are times I will do conditioning sessions for my students but I have no interest in that style of coaching. We have other PTs in the gym who can help you with that.

What I do do..
Build skill
Develop techniques
Problem solve issues in training
Drills
Live scenarios
Fight gameplan

Feel free to inbox me.

Thanks

We're back tomorrow, Monday 27th, with some temporary changes to the timetable.

Classes will be no-contact, and due to distancing measures numbers are limited, so please message us in advance to secure your place and receive instruction on the new protocols for gym use.

Times have been tough all round, and we’re still awaiting clarification on when we can reopen. Thankfully the recent problems haven’t halted our expansion plans, and we’ll soon have another facility in Walbottle, Newcastle: offering BJJ, MMA and Kickboxing, as well as a full weights gym.
Itaipava Martial Arts will be serving the West End with head coach Stephen Fairbairn, and Fight Centre will continue to serve the East End.
Newcastle’s number 1 for BJJ and MMA.

Congratulations to Mr. James Ryder on taking silver at BJJ 24/7, winning his first match and then losing in the final on points.

Congratulations to all the Itaipava BJJ team Crezio de Souza competitors who took part in Scottish grappling this weekend.
Between 2 athletes from Newcastle Fight Centre and 6 from Livingston Fight Centre we brought back 9 Gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze. Good going guys!

Huge congratulations to our great friend and former team captain Hassan El-Wardany on earning his Brown belt today from the esteemed Pedro Bessa.
Family and work life meant that Hassan had to move away from Newcastle, but he’s always a revered team member and friend to us all.
Well done Assassin!

Big weekend for the team- Congratulations to Stephen Fairbairn taking silver in Spain in his first tournament as a Purple belt, and brown belt Luke Lofters grappling to a tie in London in his submission only match. Great work guys.
