THE FARM is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu project created by Founder and Coach Scott McGuigan. It is a project designed to enable others to practice and develop their self defence skills through the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & MMA in a unique and spacious environment. Situated in a old industrial factory in the town of Manacor, THE FARM offers a unique setting for individuals wanting to start or continue their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey in Mallorca.
At THE FARM, we pride ourselves in the friendly atmosphere of the Gym. We like to push the boundaries in every class, providing stimulating and challenging lessons for all our students. We spar competitively in every lesson as to make sure we stay sharp. We try to stay up to date with the latest techniques and developments in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to make sure our students get the best lessons possible. We achieve this through with an emphasis on the effectiveness of task based or objective based learning methodology. We also strive to improve our facility constantly, having recently installed 130m2 of FUJI SMOOTH SERIES tatami in our gym as well as toilet, shower and changing facilities. Our tatami is of the highest standard and we try to deliver as professional a training environment as possible.
We are also an official member of the Balearic Grappling & MMA Federation, so drop in and have a go!
