Marc Walder, a black belt since 2005, has an extensive martial arts background spanning eighteen years, including years of training in the United States with the Gracie family. His experience includes competition across Brazilian jiu jitsu championships, submission wrestling, judo, and cage fighting. The academy’s instruction is deeply rooted in traditional Gracie Jiu Jitsu principles, reflecting a commitment to technical precision and practical application developed over years of international training and competition. Training at the academy centres on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for adults at all levels, with a strong emphasis on fundamentals as well as progression into more advanced techniques. Classes are held in gi, maintaining the traditional focus of Gracie BJJ, and are complemented by open mat sessions that allow students to drill and spar freely. This structure supports steady development and provides opportunities for personalised learning and experience on the mats. Visitors and drop-ins are welcome, making it accessible for those new to the sport or passing through London.
