Team Choke UK Submission Wrestling:

Team Choke UK Submission Wrestling is based on a combination of Brazilian and 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu, Submission Wrestling and other free-style techniques that are relevant within MMA, the grappling arena or even just for self defence.

Classes are open to all who wish to learn for whatever reason.  All we require is that on your way in you leave your ego at the door.

We look forward to the partnership of Team Choke UK Submission Wrestling and YMAA at their academy, training with Craig and his team, and look forward to seeing you there.

Philosophy

Regardless of everyone that we have trained or studied with, the 10th Planet no Gi system created by Eddie Bravo is the system that has made one of the biggest impressions on us.  Not only for its innovative approach to Jiu Jitsu, but Eddie Bravo’s teaching methods, as they’re hard to beat!!  His approach is fresh and ALIVE…a term that you will learn is important no matter what martial art you study and hence….we are still students of the arts as well as teachers.
