BJJ in Gateshead

Gateshead is a 3-gym Tyne and Wear satellite slug across the river from Newcastle upon Tyne, part of the wider Tyneside BJJ cluster. Adult-unlimited tickets run **£60–£70/mo** (city average **£65/mo**) — sitting at the affordable North East English band consistent with Newcastle and South/North Shields. **Blaydon Grapplers** at £65/mo flat is the headline academy in the wider Blaydon / Gateshead area. **222 Jiu Jitsu** under **Tyrone Elliott** BB at £70/mo flat. **MTK Newcastle** at £60–£70/mo brings the **MTK Global** brand (originally a boxing management / training network) into the Tyneside grappling list, primarily focused on combat sports cross-training. None of the three rooms hold a confirmed major Brazilian network affiliation in the data — Gateshead's mat scene is locally coach-driven, with Alliance / Carlson lineages sitting across the river in Newcastle proper.
