# Roger Gracie Academy Preston
Roger Gracie Academy Preston is a specialist Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training centre located in Preston, offering comprehensive grappling instruction across multiple disciplines and age groups. Established in April 2021, the academy has quickly become a prominent BJJ destination in the North West, operating from a modern 4,000-square-foot facility with professional-grade equipment.
The academy serves a diverse clientele including complete beginners, experienced practitioners, children aged 5-15, and women seeking dedicated training spaces. Each demographic receives tailored instruction focused on technique, physical conditioning, and personal development.
What distinguishes RGA Preston is its direct affiliation with Roger Gracie, a 10-time world champion and grandson of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu founder Carlos Gracie Sr. This legendary lineage ensures authentic instruction rooted in genuine Gracie methodology. Beyond combat credentials, the academy cultivates a distinctive family-oriented atmosphere where members feel welcomed rather than intimidated—a deliberate contrast to many martial arts environments.
The academy's class structure reflects this inclusive philosophy. Adult Gi classes emphasise traditional technique and positioning, whilst No-Gi sessions cater to those pursuing MMA or preferring faster-paced training. Women's-only classes provide a safe, empowering environment, and children's programmes emphasise character development alongside physical skills including discipline, confidence, and resilience.
This combination of prestigious lineage, modern facilities, diverse programming, and genuinely supportive community positioning sets RGA Preston apart as Preston's premier BJJ destination.
