Strive BJJ is an independent gym founded in 2023 by Karl Tallowin, a coach with 20+ years of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu experience. Based in Norwich, it's affiliated with Mavericks Jiu-Jitsu, being the first UK location in that lineage. The gym emphasizes a welcoming, no-pressure environment where training is optional rather than mandatory. Classes include gi and no-gi training for adults, plus dedicated women-only and youth programmes. Strive caters to all levels from complete beginners (minimum age 4) with loaner gear available, through to competitive training, supported by the Mavericks network of seminars and online resources.
