The BJJ programme centres on grappling and wrestling with a focus on no-gi, though gi is included in kids' and adults' sign-up gear. Owner and head instructor Jeff Haddad began training in 1999, has taught since 2006 including coaching a high school wrestling team to multiple championships, opened Ascension in 2016, and is a two-time IBJJF world champion, an undefeated professional fighter and a former pediatric and occupational therapist. The school runs a scholarship programme funded by local Bristol businesses for families who could not otherwise afford classes.
