About

Our Story

We are a Submission Grappling gym based in West London. Silviu Nastasa and Eoghan O’Flanagan set up the school in late 2022 after having been teaching in various schools around London for the better part of 10 years.

Their goal is to use their complementary styles to create a training environment balancing hard work and fun as finely as possible, combining their expertise to have a balance of specialist skills in a very broad sport/martial art. 

Eoghan and Silviu have been training partners for over 5 years and have helped each other excel in the field and would like you to join on their journey.

What is Submission Grappling?

Often referred to as “No-Gi Jiu Jitsu”, Submission Grappling is a combination of multiple grappling arts which use techniques such as takedowns, joint locks and strangle holds to control and submit an opponent starting from a standing or grounded position. 

At Submission Grappling Club we will never compromise on quality of instruction nor will we focus on techniques that are not effective for both grappling competition and self defence.

We keep up to date with the latest techniques developed by the best submission grappling athletes around the world as well as having very solid understanding of the fundamentals to ensure that we stay ahead of the game in this rapidly evolving sport.
