Tokei Martial Arts and Fitness Centre

Tokei Martial Arts and Fitness Centre has been part of London’s martial arts landscape since 1975, evolving from a traditional gymnasium into a multifaceted training hub. Located on Magdalen Street near London Bridge, it is the city’s oldest gym still operating, maintaining a commitment to high-quality martial arts instruction across a broad spectrum of disciplines. The centre’s instructors bring extensive experience from national and international competition and coaching backgrounds, reflecting a depth of knowledge in their respective arts. This longevity and breadth of expertise have established Tokei as a place where martial arts are taught with both tradition and practical application in mind. The BJJ programme at Tokei focuses primarily on no-gi training, offering fundamentals classes that cater to all ages and skill levels alongside more advanced sessions. Students progress through structured classes designed to build a solid technical foundation before moving into intermediate and all-levels training. The centre integrates Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with complementary disciplines such as judo and wrestling, supporting a well-rounded grappling education. Unlike gi-focused schools, Tokei prioritises no-gi as the core BJJ format, aligning with its broader mixed martial arts curriculum. Beyond BJJ, the academy provides a diverse range of martial arts including karate, Muay Thai, boxing, and judo, with classes spanning from juniors to senior practitioners. Fitness classes such as circuits, Pilates, and yoga complement the martial arts training, supported by a fully equipped gym featuring cardiovascular and resistance equipment. Visitors and drop-ins are welcome, reflecting Tokei’s open approach to community involvement and consistent training opportunities throughout the day. The centre’s history and comprehensive programming make it a distinctive fixture in London’s martial arts scene.
