    Been looking for a dojo forever, but they're so arkwardly placed. There's quite a few in north London (Wembley) and Central London.

    This is a pretty good map of all the BJJ places round England. Currently I'm at trojan free fighters.

    >Not expensive

    Pick one.

    Anyway, if I was in London I'd ideally train at Roger's place.

    A BJJ dojo? Strange considering no-one refers to a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu school as a "dojo".

    Go with the Roger Gracie academy in Ladbroke Grove, really friendly people there.
    Also the Carlson Gracie gym in Hammersmith (my old place) is ****ing awesome too
    Depends where you live, but it's got to be one of these two if you're in london

    Roger Gracie Academy also have a smaller gym in Kilburn, but I have not heard good things about the place..
