    Iron Grip has changed my kids lives in more ways than I ever could have inticipated. Under the excellent coaching and leadership of the Coaches, they have both grown into mentally and physically strong individuals, making a difference in life and being bold about good choices. Thank you, Iron Grip for making the world a stronger, kinder, better place!

    My boys absolutely love going to JiuJitsu. It is the highlight of their week. At home they also carry on rolling with their dad and siblings. I appreciate this academy’s neatness, friendliness and help in every aspect. They are on time and their communication is good. Highly recommend!!

    Our son has been at Iron Grip for more than a year now, and we are very happy. Coach Bhavish (who coaches the younger teens) is excellent - he teaches the techniques well and patiently, and is warm and approachable while maintaining good discipline. The kids are taught to stand up for themselves without being aggressors. They are not only taught useful techniques, but also values and principles. The coaching counters bullying, and my son's rugby has even benefitted from both the technical knowledge and his increased confidence. The owners are welcoming and supportive, and it is a safe, respectful environment for all. Much appreciation for all involved.

    I've been at Iron Grip for a year now and can definitely say that it has been an amazing experience. Everyone in the gym is extremely friendly and willing to help at any time. Would recommend to anyone wanting to try a new sport or form of exercise, or even just a way to socialize with new people and learn something new at the same time.

    -more classes a week than you will want to attend. -fantastic curriculum with a strict grading system. -for intermediates - most of the BJJ you will learn is pretty much the best Jiu Jitsu from the best teachers out there, compressed into an elixir. names like John Danaher, Jon Thomas etc. come to mind - very clean interior with GOOD mats. large mat area. - many students from a wide range of skill and size level to practice with - friendly staff - coffee machine - showers - inverter system to keep things going during loadshedding. - extremely committed staff

    My son has been at Iron Grip since February of this year and it has truly had a positive impact on his life. He looks forward to the days he has to train and learn the art of BJJ. He has gained a lot more confidence and made connections with other little ones that will surely last a lifetime. If you are a parent looking for a way to teach your children self-confidence or self-defense, this place is a must. I cannot give Iron Grip a higher praise.

    Been at this gym for 7 months now. The fundamentals class is well structured and will bring out your inner completionist. The coaches here are friendly, helpful, supportive and patient. Also, the community here is very welcoming and full of friendly and supportive individuals. Absolutely love this place.

    Amazing! The staff are wonderful! They are professional and share their knowledge in a way so my little boy can easily understand. He loves going to Jiu-Jitsu! He has found some amazing rolemodels to look up to which warms my mother-heart.

    I trained with Iron Grip before the pandemic. Sadly when I moved jobs I had to move gyms too. My first class at the new gym (won’t mention where) I badly injured my shoulder. Needless to say, I’m back with iron Grip (even though the commute is a pain) because they really are the best. They are a family of enthusiastic coaches and athletes that are supportive and welcoming. Love the classes and would not train anywhere else.

    Iron Grip is not only a place to learn BJJ, it is also a place where kids learn self-confidence, discipline and a sense of community. The staff and coaches are passionate about the well-being and development of each of the members.

    I was visiting from the UK and would strongly encourage anyone looking for somewhere to train while in Cape Town to head to Iron Grip for a few sessions. There was a decent group of higher belt training partners and a great standard of teaching. Modern gym with plenty of space. All super accommodating and very reasonably priced. Reinhardt and the team at Iron Grip have created an amazing BJJ vibe at this gym. Everyone is super friendly and there is a welcoming, almost family-like atmosphere, all egos left at the door. There is a great balance between the fundamental/self defence training and sport BJJ. Trained plenty of takedowns and had gloves out for one fundamentals sessions. Lots of sparring opportunity and they have a competition team if that is more your thing. Thank you everyone at Iron Grip for a great time while I was in Cape Town - I really enjoyed spending some time with you all!

    I would like to let you know how much we appreciate your investment in our kids lives. It's an amazing experience from when my children first walked into Iron Grip. Thank you to everyone at IG! The amount of time, detail & dedication you put into every class & every event, is on a different level! We're so grateful for your efforts!

  • 5/5 Lucy C. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited Iron Grips Martial Arts whilst visiting Cape Town from the UK. I found it to be a very friendly gym and enjoyed the classes very much. I stayed for both fundamentals and advanced class. The head instructor Reinhardt spoke with me before class and asked about my previous injuries... It was nice that he took this into consideration and checked what I could and couldn't do. I would definitely recommend this gym to people visiting or those that live in the area and are thinking of doing BJJ. If I have time, I'd definitely go back to train again. Thank you for having me.

    Enrolling our 2 boys in Jiu-Jitsu at Iron Grip has been one of the best decisions we have made!! Our boys are more focused, confident and school grades are up too!! They not only teach Jiu-Jitsu skills, but valuable life skills too. They boys have build friendships and they have loads of fun while learning. The coaches at Iron Grip are passionate about what they do, and really invested in our kids well being. As a family, we feel fortunate to be part of Iron Grip.

    The best decision I have made was joining Jiu Jitsu and I am so happy I had started at a institute such as Iron Grip! The staff and training partners have become a family away from home and its only once you have that , you find out just how important it is. Thank you Iron Grip for changing my life for the better!

  • 5/5 Armand F. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the best dojo I have trained at in ten years. It is clean, spacious, and modern. One feels welcome and reassured upon your first step inside. The instructors are professional, passionate, and technical. The members have a great sense of pride and camaraderie. I would highly recommend this gym to everyone.

  • 5/5 Francois H. 1 year ago on Google
    The pride they take in their service delivery is out of this world. Truly blessed to be part of the Iron grip Family. The professionalism and way they treat, educate our kids is amazing. It's all about discipline,hard work and never giving up no matter how tough it gets on the mat. If I could, I would give 6 stars. Thank you Coach Reinhardt and team.

😠 Disgusting, spot the cardio machine that works, rusty handles and equipment that will give you a disease when you show the staff they honestly ask what you are complaining about WHY because it's been like this for years!

👍 This Virgin Active Red is clean and well set up. No pool (Virgin Red is a more basic set up). A day pass will cost you R50 (card only, no cash). The staff were friendly, but seemed a little unorganized while checking us in. This is likely because they don't get day visitors on a regular basis. The g...
