Positive experience: Great gym, knowledgeable trainers and the technique drills are very thorough. Only improvement would be the beginners timetable, specifically the 7:40pm start time.

Hi Stephen, I hope all is well. We have 2 specific beginner classes a week and 3 mixed level classes which cater for beginner and the more advanced. With the option of 5 classes a week where could we make improvements that would suit you?

Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Attic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is amazing! I’m Brazilian and have been training at Attic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a while, and I can only say good things! The atmosphere is welcoming, the people are super respectful, and the instructors really know what they’re teaching. I’m learning so much about jiu-jitsu techniques, both in practice and theory. The level of knowledge and dedication from the instructors is impressive, always willing to help and correct details so we can improve. If you’re looking for a place to learn and improve your jiu-jitsu with quality and seriousness, I highly recommend Attic! I can’t wait to continue my journey and learn even more.

Fantastic experience: There’s not one negative to this great little club! Very professional and respectful in all aspects and most of all there’s a welcome that’s not found in other sports or clubs! If you have ever thought of trying jujitsu this is definitely the place to dip your toes and you won’t be disappointed! It’s a top class life changing experience!!!

Fantastic experience: Started at the attic last year and I never looked back, I couldn't ask for better teachers at all

aine dunne 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Since starting in the attic it has been the Highlight of my week it is a great sport if your looking to improve strength and improve your fitness levels I knew nothing about the sport to begin with but the coaches are very welcoming and the other club members if your struggling with something they take time to show you step by step and you always learn something new

Fantastic experience: Best confidence builder in Carlow. It’s the best thing my son did for my grandson. His confidence has soared since he started ju-jitsu with Brian. I can’t recommend this club highly enough.

Hugsie -Music- 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Staring Jiu-Jitsu in Attic was the best decision of my life. Amazing, friendly atmosphere with a real culture of respect and fun, active learning. Brian and Darren are amazing coaches, very professional, skillful, experienced and approachable who are both still actively competing in BJJ themselves. Attic is a very welcoming place and caters for all ages and skill levels. The timetable caters for both beginners and mixed ability classes, with classes on every evening of the week and Saturday morning open mat after kids and adult classes. A brilliant place to train.

Owen ONeill 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Probably one of the best decisions I've made was taking the leap and starting with the club. While starting a new adventure and entering the unknown can be quite intimidating I have to say the community of people in Attic Brazilian jiu jitsu were so welcoming and helpful. The one thing I remember being said by multiple people was everyone had to start somewhere once. Knowing that every higher belt was once in my shoes showed me where, with time I could end up was and is a big inspiration. So if you're even considered starting take the jump and sign up for the beginners program. There is a reason multiple members travel from other counties to train at Attic multiple times a week. Best decision you'll ever make.

Jonathan Block 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Darren and Brian have put many many years into the game and have set up a great school. Both black belts, still improving and still competing. Really high standard to drop in as a beginner to learn and start your journey.

Ellis Dolan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Started training in Attic Jiu-jitsu in 2017, took time off due to work and tried gyms closer to work but never found another club or other Coaches or training partners like the ones in Attic Jiu-jitsu. so i started back in 2022 and havent looked back since. Great Atmosphere, top level coaching and a class timetable to suit all, would recommend to anyone starting there Jiu-jitsu journey or if you've previous experience, Attic caters for all. ‍♂️

R Corden 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Attic is a fantastic club to both learn Jiu-Jitsu and for higher level belts to test their abilities and pick up finer details. The beginner classes are well structured and paced, with a balanced mix of technique learning and sparring rounds to practice these techniques and track your improvement (which comes on fast). The advance classes improve upon all areas of Jiu-Jitsu and then open rounds at the end bring a great intensity across a wide and deep skill range. A fantastic club with a great atmosphere and great people. You will quickly find it to be one of the highlights of your week.

Ricky Nolan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: A great Jiu Jitsu gym with great coaches. The sessions are very carefully planned and thought out. The coaches are top level and explain everything in great detail. With a wide variety of classes available throughout the week and people of all skill levels from white belt up to black black there is an option to suit anyones schedule and skill level. If you are thinking of starting Jiu Jitsu, or even if you're more experienced, I couldn't recommend Attic Jiu Jitsu enough. You won't regret it. They have a great beginners program to get you started.

Kris 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: "I have been training at the BJJ school with Darren and Brian as the main coaches for over a years now, and I am extremely satisfied with my experience. The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, making it the perfect place for both beginners and advanced practitioners. The coaches are highly knowledgeable and skilled, always willing to share their expertise and help each student reach their goals. I have made great progress and learned a lot since starting here, and I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to improve their BJJ skills."

Mick Cunningham 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I'm a little over 4 months into my training at Attic. I was a complete beginner when I stepped through the doors and was made feel welcome from minute 1. The instructors are fantastic and the classes are very well thought out and put together. There are a wide variety of experience levels to train and roll with. One of the main take aways I'd have from my last few months training here is the complete lack of egos from the lads here. If you are reading this and you are trying to decide whether to give it a try or not, my advice would be to bite the bullet and walk through the doors. Take advantage of the beginners programme the lads have setup. You won't regret it.

Clayton Long 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: The best decision I've ever made was joining this club. The two coaches Darren and Brian couldn't be more welcoming and willing to teach. You will have amazing team mates here who are friendly and helpful. Every night there is learning, laughing and an overall great atmosphere. I'm only part of the club around 6 months but it already feels like a home to me filled with extended family. I'm extremely grateful to have this place to come to so thank you Darren and Brian
