Training in St Jude's

Iron and fight gyms.

LA Gym on Easton Road has been family-owned since 1986: two floors of plate-loaded machines and free weights, with 24/7 access for members. Trojan Free Fighters on Newfoundland Street teaches MMA, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, boxing, Muay Thai and wrestling, and Artemis BJJ, Bristol Kickboxing Association and Athena Combat Club, whose kickboxing and Muay Thai classes are for women and marginalised genders, add more. StrengthLab and Piloxercise cover studio work, and BUMP Rollerdisco is the wildcard.

Riverside Park follows the River Frome and has an outdoor basketball court, and St Matthias Park sits on the western side. Lawrence Hill and Stapleton Road stations are both close, so it's easy to get here for an evening session with a sparring partner or someone to share the squat rack.
