INVISIBLE JIU JITSU'S REVIEWS
This has been fantastic for both my physical & mental health. David is extremely knowledgeable and does a great job breaking down sequences so even newbies like me can understand. The wider group is always keen to help, and makes you feel so welcome from day one. Highly recommend joining to anyone!
David at Invisible Jiu Jits offers some of the highest class of teaching I've seen after training at multiple BJJ clubs. Extremely attentive to everyone's needs regardless of skill level, creates a fun and safe training environment, and cultivates a really great club atmosphere. Would highly recommend starting with the beginners course to get a solid foundation.
Me and my son could not have wished for a better instructor and bunch of people to train with. Great place and friendly Highly recommend.
Having come from a previous gym, I was welcomed in and have thoroughly enjoyed training since I joined. A very relaxed and enjoyable environment in which David gets down to the smallest details of every technique he shows and explains why they work. Would recommend to anyone new and to anyone who has been training for some time.
Love this place. Great bunch of people, great facilities and an outstanding teacher. Only wish I'd found Invisible Jiu Jitsu academy sooner!
Awesome place to train, flexible classes, friendly people, available for all levels, especially beginners. Would 100000 percent recommend.
Having trained karate for 30+ years, I wanted a new challenge. From day one you are coached to the highest standard and encouraged to push yourself to be the best you can be. Through David's excellent coaching and the support of all students, I've won national Jiu Jitsu and Shootboxing events.The best bit is, there's still so much more to learn!
David Morcegão
David is a 3rd Degree Black Belt who began his training at the birth of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in the UK. Starting at the famous Rough House gym in Nottingham, David was raised alongside future UFC fighters Dan Hardy, Paul Daley and Andre Winner.
In 2008 the sudden and tragic loss of David's father, a mere month before his 50th birthday and retirement from the fire service gave David the sign to not wait to follow through with his dream of pursuing Jiu Jitsu full time. His father had put off much of what he enjoyed doing in life saying that he would have all the time in the world to do it once he was retired. He never got the chance. From this painful loss David learned that sometimes there is no tomorrow and that the leap towards a better life has to be made today, before the choice is taken away from you. Putting aside his career as a high school science teacher he made the move to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to continue his training full time with the very best BJJ and MMA fighters that the home of the sport had to offer.
His dedication to training full time saw him promoted from Blue belt to Black belt in an almost unheard of 4 years, becoming the first and only English Black Belt under living legend, Master Ricardo de la Riva, the famous inventor of the de la Riva guard position.
Aside from Jiu Jitsu, David is also the highest ranked native teacher in the United Kingdom of Luta Livre, the Brazilian descendent of catch wrestling adapted for MMA competition. His instructor is 6th degree Luta Livre Coral Belt and UFC/Pride MMA veteran Miltinho Vieira.
David always emphasises technical correctness during his sessions at Invisible Jiu Jitsu in Burton on Trent, focusing on what he calls the “Invisible Jiu Jitsu”. These are the minute details that are often overlooked by other instructors that can't always be seen but can make or break a technique. He draws on his training as a high school teacher to deliver outstanding lessons tailored to get the very best from each and every student as individuals.
Some of David's competition successes include medalling at the prestigious ADCC World's European Trials, taking gold in multiple British Championships and the winning the Copa America in Brazil. David is also proud to have been the first UK Jiu Jitsu player to be sponsored by world famous Japanese clothing company Bull Terrier.
