  1. Kishore Dan ★★★★★

    Over the past few months, I have attended Aaron's classes in the mornings and it's clear to see he has a sharp and informative understanding of the biomechanics of the art of grappling. He is a friendly, approachable fella with a lot to give on and off the mats. If anyone is in or around the Ballyclare area do call in even if it is to sharpen up your own stand up or ground grappling game.

  2. Glenn Elliott ★★★★★

    Aaron has a wealth of experience in the grappling and wrestling community. Always a willing coach to teach and also learn new techniques for him and his students. Highly recommended Newtownabbey grappling academy!!

  3. David McD ★★★★★

    Aaron has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to grappling and fitness. He's easily able to communicate this knowledge to his students which allows them to grow in grappling confidence and competence at a much quicker rate. The gym has a friendly atmosphere and it's one of the things that stands out the most. Everyone is made to feel welcomed and Aaron is attentative and considerate when trying to ascertain fitness levels. There's no gym bro mentality at the club and you do things at your own pace, which is perfect if you're a beginner like I was when I first started at Newtownabbey Grappling Academy. .

  1. David Orchin ★★★★★

    I trained with Aaron just when the club was starting. At the time I was a belt belt, having a bit over 3 years training experience. Despite this, I learned a huge amount from Aaron - both with grappling and wrestling techniques. Aaron had a brilliant way of articulating and breaking down complex topics, making it easy to learn to put into practice. If you're looking for somewhere where no-gi grappling and wrestling, this is the place to check out!
