Fightworx Academy Taunton opened its doors in 2015 with the intention of providing a friendly, family-oriented, clean, and welcoming gym. Our goal is to ensure that no one feels out of place or intimidated. We aim to create a gym where you can train in Combat Sports but is not just for fighters. It is a gym for hobbyists, individuals looking to try something new, or those who want to get fit and build their confidence.
It is a gym for children and females. In short, it is a gym for anyone and everyone.
At Fightworx, we offer Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ), Muay Thai, and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). Additionally, we provide fitness training, strength and conditioning, and sports massage. Our classes cater to all levels of experience, from beginner to advanced. We take pride in offering a welcoming, friendly, and family-style environment where everyone feels comfortable to train.
We believe that training should be available to everyone, regardless of their skill level.
Our instructors are highly trained, experienced, and approachable. They are dedicated to helping you achieve your personal goals and provide individual attention and guidance throughout your training journey. Fightworx Academy boasts a fully matted out and equipped training area to ensure a safe and optimal training environment for all our members.
As part of our commitment to growth and development, we offer access to competitions and provide full training and preparation support. We also have a junior programme for children and teenagers aged 5-15, which encourages discipline and self-defence in a fun and friendly environment.
Fightworx Taunton BJJ is proud to be affiliated with the Roger Gracie Academy (Bucks) under Kev Capel, a 3rd Degree Black Belt.
But don't just take our word for it.
- “Sliding into my 30s weak and flabby with the organs of a pensioner is a hard pill to swallow. I wasn't confident, I didn't know of any grappling martial arts, and I was scared, to say the least. The family at Fightworx took me in and changed all of that. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, and the coaches are all great teachers.
- “I started training BJJ at Fightworx in Feb 2016 after attending a few private lessons with a friend in our spare time. I was very nervous to join a club to begin with as it was massively out of my comfort zone, but after walking through the doors at Fightworx and seeing the professional facility and approachable coach's, I was sold!
