# Business Description
Arlans Siqueira BJJ is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy with locations across Essex and North London, specialising in training for both adults and children. Founded by Arlans Siqueira, a 4th degree BJJ instructor and pioneering figure who established the first BJJ classes in the UK back in 1996, the academy combines decades of experience with a welcoming, community-focused approach.
The business serves families, children and adults seeking authentic martial arts training in a safe, friendly environment. Their junior programme, particularly strong in Buckhurst Hill and the wider Redbridge area, teaches core values of respect and discipline whilst building confidence and self-defence skills. They explicitly market their kids' classes as "bully-proof" training for local areas including Chigwell, Loughton, Wanstead and Barkingside.
What sets Arlans Siqueira BJJ apart is Arlans' reputation as a "colourful character" renowned for fostering special bonds with students—a personal touch often missing from larger chains. The academy offers flexibility with both weekday and weekend classes, including innovative family training sessions where parents and children (aged 12+) train together in No Gi classes on Saturday mornings. They've expanded their offering to include complementary MMA training through their New Element MMA Academy in Chigwell.
With multiple North London and Essex locations, strong social media presence, and transparent FAQs addressing common concerns, they've positioned themselves as the accessible, heritage-rich choice for BJJ training in Greater London and Essex.
