Back to school. Back to the mat. Let’s make this their strongest year yet.!!

What a seminar! 🥋🔥

A huge thank you to Rayron Gracie for joining us at RGA Darlington on Friday and delivering an incredible session!

So much knowledge, technique and detail packed into one seminar — an amazing opportunity for our members to learn directly from one of the very best. 👊

We’re incredibly grateful for the time, energy and knowledge you shared with everyone on the mats.

Thank you, Rayron! 🇧🇷❤️

A huge well done to everyone who graded on Sunday!

Another fantastic grading day at RGA Darlington. It was brilliant to see all the hard work, commitment and progress on display.

Every stripe and every belt has been earned through consistency, resilience and hours on the mats. We couldn’t be prouder of every student who stepped up.

A big thank you to all of our coaches, volunteers and parents for your continued support – our club wouldn’t be what it is without you.

Congratulations to everyone who received a promotion… now it’s back to work!

Summer Grading 2026.

Another grading day done.

Massive congratulations to everyone who stepped onto the mats and earned their next belt. Every stripe, every belt and every promotion is the result of hours of hard work, consistency and showing up when it isn’t always easy.

Whether this was your first grading or your tenth, you should be proud of how far you’ve come.

A huge thank you to all of our coaches, teammates and families for supporting each other throughout the day. That’s what makes RGA Darlington what it is. 👊

Congratulations everyone—we’ll see you back on the mats this week.

Rayron Gracie returns to Darlington.

One of the best in the game is back on the mats.

If you train BJJ, you already know.

The gi sniff test. The Monday limp. The white belt who thinks it’s the ADCC finals on a Tuesday night.

It’s a lifestyle. It’s a sickness. It’s the best thing we do all week.

Tag the training partner who still owes you a roll. And the one who’s “definitely coming back next week” (we’ve heard that before, mate).

See you on the mats at Roger Gracie Darlington.

Your first roll is on us.

Whether you’re brand new to BJJ or just new to RGA Darlington, we want to see you on the mats. No pressure, no experience needed — just come and see what we’re about.

SUMMER GRADING IS HERE.

The hard work has been done. The rounds, the drills, the early mornings, the sore fingers… now it’s time to step on the mats and show how far you’ve come.

Whether you’re earning your next stripe or your next belt, grading is about progress, not perfection. Every promotion represents the hours no one else sees.

📅 Sunday 12th July

🥋 Juniors: 12:00–13:00
🥋 Adults: 13:30–14:30

Good luck to everyone grading. We can’t wait to see you all on the mats. 👊

This is what confidence looks like. 🥋

Not just learning to fight — learning to focus, to problem-solve under pressure, to get back up when things get tough. That’s what BJJ gives our kids at RGA Darlington.

Every roll, every rep, every small win on the mats builds something bigger than technique.

If your little one needs an outlet for their energy (and you need 5 minutes of peace) — we’ve got you.
