Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & Grappling.

Foundry Grappling is a community-focused martial arts gym based in Oldham, specialising in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), No-Gi grappling, and submission wrestling for both kids and adults. Whether you’re completely new to the sport or looking to level up your skills, our expert coaches and structured programmes offer a path for everyone — from beginners to aspiring competitors.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a dynamic, technique-based martial art that focuses on leverage, control, and submissions rather than brute strength. It’s one of the most effective self-defence systems in the world and a fantastic way to build strength, fitness, and confidence all while becoming part of a supportive, like-minded community.

At Foundry, we believe in high-quality coaching, consistent progress, and creating a welcoming environment where everyone can thrive.
