Pro Rugby Coaches Open Specialist Martial Arts Facility in Bridgend
A new Brazilian jiu jitsu facility has opened in Bridgend, co-founded by rugby performance coach Simon Rhys Church and British jiu jitsu champion Aled Rees.
The facility, Motley Grapple, was launched in 2024 and has now moved to its own purpose-designed space in a newly refurbished unit in Bridgend, thanks to a £7,500 Start Up Loan from the British Business Bank.
- Brazilian jiu jitsu classes for all levels
- Inclusive and specialist home for grappling in the local area
Simon, currently Head of Performance at the Ospreys and a former professional rugby player, spotted a gap in the local market for a dedicated jiu jitsu space.
