About

Grappling Alliance (GA) has friendly open mats, seminars and social space for BJJ and no-gi grapplers. GA has been going since 2022.

To join the open mat you must be:

  • training at bjj or no-gi club. We do not take on newbies.


Couple of rules for the open mat:
  • need to be over 18, or come with your parent or guardian. 
  • cut your nails
  • use washed gear only
  • wear slippers or spare shoes when not on the mat
  • need to sign a release of liability waiver (if you are below 18, your partner or guardian will sign on your behalf)


The events usually consist of:
  • warm up
  • drilling
  • rolling
  • stretching / cool down
  • social


We strive to be an inclusive space, but we do not accept abuse or dangerous practitioners.
