SBG Manchester; 7 grappling/ sub classes in a week, plus the stand-up sessions have some emphasis on takedowns and grappling too.

Theres plenty of cheap hotels in Manchester, too

Any Hostel at any station on the Piccadilly or District Tube Lines so you can get the gym on a direct tube.
Those lines go through some rough,cheap areas so it should be easy.

Try googling hostels in Shepherds Bush/Hammersmith for walking distance
digs.

You have PM.

Earls court is probably your best bet for cheap(ish) digs near(ish) to Carlsons.

The Griphouse.

Great gym in Glasgow if you fancy a trip up to Scotland.

Head mma/bjj coach is Paul McVeigh (Cage Warriors Bantomweight Champ and guest writer in Fighters Only mag.)

There are lots of guys getting ready for fights, so sparring is good, and classes are very technical. Great atmosphere plus classes on during the day.

Cardiff, full programme of classes with the Welsh Judo Academy and Pedro Bessa BJJ, hopefully a wrestling class starting soon also.

Loads of hotels and hostels within walking distance of the training venue; could also point you in the direction of Paul 'Hands of Stone' Jenkins if you wanted to train MMA or go dogging lol.
