Loughborough BJJ is very happy to announce that one of our previous students "Karl Horsley" is now running a new BJJ club in Barnstaple, North Devon - imaginatively called Devon LBJJ. Based in Roundswell, the club caters for all levels from beginner fundamental classes to the more advanced level training. The club offers a friendly atmosphere as part of the BJJ community and will leave you hooked excited for your next session the moment you walk through the door. Be sure to check the club out and to look out for any seminars that will be held there by members of our team in the near future.​Karl the instructor is a student of Nathan Beeby.​​Nathan Beeby is a 2nd Degree Black belt Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioner and instructor. He began his training as a white belt with long time training partner and fellow BJJ Blackbelt Ian Moffett, they both started their tuition under Ben Poppleton at Michael Dean’s gym in Long Eaton Notts. Since a young age Nathan has had an interest in combat and martial arts, and gained the rank of Dan grade (Black Belt) in both kickboxing and Judo. Nathan has ensured that his own academy (LBJJ) adheres to the ethos and fighting style of the original founders of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and encourages his students to pay attention to technique, fitness and resilience of character. His academy has become renowned for its emphasis on physical fitness and its direct and hard fighting style (Porrada) which incorporates old school techniques. Since the club was established in 2005 Loughborough Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has continued to grow, acquire its own premises and continues to add new members each month. Nathan continues to commit his time to bringing on a new generation of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu students and instructors.​​For further information on Devon LBJJ please call: 07305 858965
