I visited the bare-kimono fighting class with leg locks in December. It was my first time in Finland and it was an amazing experience. Great atmosphere and training partners. I learned a very useful technique from Coach Juho. 5/5.

I've trained Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at three different gyms in Helsinki, and AOGG has undoubtedly been the best in my experience. The classes are fun and the atmosphere is very friendly.

The best BJJ academy in Helsinki. The community is truly welcoming, and the coaches are exceptionally skilled and supportive. They offer a wide variety of training sessions, ensuring everyone can find a schedule that suits them. After attending a few classes, my only regret is not signing up sooner.

Absolutely! You don't need to be in "peak condition" to start. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a fantastic way to improve your fitness, and the training is designed to let you progress at your own pace.
To start as beginner or in No-GI classes, you only need comfortable indoor sportswear (t-shirt and shorts/sweatpants without zippers or buttons) and a water bottle. Dental guards are highly recommended. For BJJ with GI, you will need a BJJ Gi (uniform).
No problem. Life happens! If you miss a class, just join the next one. We review techniques regularly, so you won't get left behind.
Yes. Safety is our priority. All training is supervised, and we teach everyone from day one to respect their partners and to "tap out" early to prevent injuries.
