Training in Lidgett Park
Mats, pitches and a park.
The most-reviewed venue in Lidgett Park is Gracie Barra Roundhay, a Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy. Leeds Shotokan teaches karate, Roundhegians Rugby Football Club began as Roundhay School's old boys and now plays for all of Roundhay, and Lakeside Fitness is the local independent gym.
The suburb took shape after the city bought Roundhay Park in 1872, and the park's lakes, woodland and Saturday parkrun are still the obvious place to run. Jiu-jitsu needs a partner by definition, and a regular one makes the drilling better.
