Rebel Bjj: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I was on a city trip in Ireland and asked last minute if I could drop in for training. I got a quick reply and was welcomed right away. The gym was easy to find, super clean, with great mats and solid wall protection. I was greeted warmly with a coffee (a really good one!), and the vibe was friendly and relaxed. The techniques were awesome—lots of cool details—and I even left with some great rashguards, shorts and spats. The team was very friendly, helpful, and genuinely there to support you. The coach focuses a lot on playing from bottom, which I really enjoyed, and I felt welcome to return anytime I’m back in Ireland. If you want to toughen up while training with a fun, welcoming team, this is definitely the place to go!

Fantastic experience: Lovely, friendly, open gym for all ages and genders. Coach Dino is a sweet and caring teacher, always offering you tea and coffee, making sure you can access the gym regardless of any barriers (economic, social, etc). Everybody teaches each other in this gym, and everybody is helped to make themselves at home. Come try, you won’t regret it <3

Fantastic experience: Considering I am 48 years young, I joined rebel bjj last February. The moment I walked in the door I felt at ease. It’s a beautiful club, spotless mats and an atmosphere u want to train in. Every single student of Dinos, welcomed me, and spent time teaching me. Dino is a fantastic coach , passionate about his students and their success. Dino always looked out for me as he understood I’m 48, the body doesn’t move like it did at 28, most importantly when I trained in the mornings Dino made me the best coffee in the world with a touch of vanilla . Love ya Dino.. keep going..

Did your "friends"tell you to leave a fake review. Man I have no idea who you are so stick your 1 star where the sun doesn't shine

David Alejandro Venegas Villanueva 5 months ago

Negative experience: I had a negative experience at Rebel BJJ. The students were very kind and welcoming, but the instructor was not. Instead of constructive feedback, I was told my Jiu-Jitsu “sucks” and that I shouldn’t have my belt. As a visitor, I expected respect and professionalism, but unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. I cannot recommend this academy.

Fantastic experience: I joined rebel BJJ to develop a solid base for MMA groundwork. I’ve trained in a number of clubs, from boxing to taekwondo, but this is the first club that has made me feel like more than just another number. Coach Dino treats us like his sons, he pushes us forward when we feel like stopping, and he helps us up when we fall. Many times my motivation and enthusiasm has slipped but Dino’s energy and enthusiasm is infectious and it is impossible to not return. In Rebel BJJ, I have found more than just a club. I have found teammates. I have found friends. I have found family. And if you decide to join, I hope you will too
