    Beautifully designed and well-set up facility. Excellent standard of teaching plus welcoming, friendly people and coaches. We dropped in when visiting Penang and liked it so much we went two more times during our short stay in the city. We really appreciated the gi hire included in the drop-in rate, as well as the fresh towels to use for a much-needed shower after class. They have ice cold drinking water all the time and free coffee after morning class! We had a fun time sparring and picked up some awesome new technique. Added bonus was getting local tips on the best food spots in Penang. Honestly, we loved training here.

    I trained here for two weeks while visiting Penang and had a wonderful time here! Fun, easygoing and welcoming atmosphere. Classes include a good balance of technique, drills and rolling. Very approachable instructors passionate about the sport and always willing to help answer questions. Thanks Flow BJJ Team!

    FLOW is an awesome place to train. The facility is top notch, and it provides everything you can ask for when you are looking for a place to train. However, what makes FLOW an elite gym is the staff, they treat everyone who comes through their door like they have been apart of the gym for years. If you are looking for a place to train, or want to get started in BJJ; this gym should be the place for you.

    I contacted Flow about getting some training in while visiting Penang and Poppy got back to me right away. I was able to drop in and attend the No Gi class as well as the Gi class the next night. Both classes were well taught with a nice group of students attending. Everyone interacted with was very friendly and welcoming. The facilities are also extremely tidy and clean. I would definitely suggest Flow if you're interested in starting BJJ or are passing through and want to continue with your training. Thanks for having me!

    Oh, this dojo has a soul folks! Positive vibes and a super helpful, supportive, and cheerful bunch. An ego-free environment that’s just perfect for Jiu-Jitsu training for beginners and all through the advanced levels. I wish we have more Jiu-Jitsu studios like this around the world. Way to go Poppy, Will, Jessen, and the team! If you’re a visiting jiujitsuka or a local looking to learn the gentle art of self-defence, you must check out the Flow BJJ academy.

    I have been training at FLOW BJJ for almost 3 months before going back home. The atmosphere, the quality, and the passion for BJJ is omnipresent and the coaches Poppy, Jessen, and Jason are thriving to improve their personal skills themselves whenever they can. This brings so much dynamic and up-to-date knowledge into the classes which I think is one of the gym's greatest aspects. I loved being there, learning from great personalities that laugh, play, and train with their students. Whenever I got the chance to come back to Penang, I will definitely drop by and get some time on the mat! Thank you!

    Moving to Penang as a brown belt, I was looking for a BJJ academy that fits my style. FLOW is laid back, friendly, and full of great people. My kids also started training here and love it.

  • 5/5 Eve L. 2 years ago on Google
    Decided to pop in for a trial during my holiday in Penang. This place is such a vibe and different from what I imagine a 'martial art center' would look like. The people (instructor and other students) are warm and friendly. I went for an all level class and they really meant all level. Instructions was clear and they took good care of me and another lady (1st timer too) really well. Would totally recommend flow bjj if you were thinking to try your hands on something new.

    FLOW BJJ will become a part of you since the first rolling. The place is peaceful, reminds you to stay patient and to think while rolling. People are professional, a lot of them training for competitions, so the level and energy is really high. First I though that the techniques are too advanced for me, as I have just started BJJ two weeks ago. But during the practise there were more explanations while doing it so that really helped me to get the point. Plus they are really friendly and like to laugh which makes it easy to learn and have tons of fun as well. So just come and try, even if you are just passing by and you will definitely prolong your stay because of them as I did ;). Martina

    I came here whilst visiting Penang on vacation. Everyone at the gym was really welcoming & friendly. The technique that was taught was well detailed and explained. The rolls that followed were also challenging. I would definitely recommend and return the next time I’m in Penang!

    As a brown belt I have been travelling around and training in many gyms. And I can say that this is one of the most beautiful gyms you can come across in Asia. Its clean with a modern feel for design and the art of bjj. The people are also very friendly and passionate about the sport. Had some very tough rolls with great guys!
