Good clubs grow the sport
We're proud to partner with academies to back their members, share their stories and connect their community to ours.

Partnered Academies
Forge 83 - Caerphilly, Wales
Forge83 was the gym that took our founder in when he moved back to Wales, and it’s where he now helps coach the kids’ classes. As our first partner academy, Forge83 is where FlowRoll’s mission becomes real: backing members, sharing their stories and making it easier for new people to walk through the door.
How partnerships work
A FlowRoll partnership is simple. We support your club and its members, and together we help more people find their way onto the mats. There’s no fee, no contract and no pressure on your members to buy anything.
What partner clubs get
- Club Waves. Limited-run FlowRoll designs made with your club, in your colours or with your name. They’re always optional, so members wear them because they want to, never because they have to.
- Access Fund nominations. You know your members best. Partner clubs can put forward people ready for their next step, whether that’s a first membership, a first comp or kit to get started.
- Your story, told well. We film and photograph open mats, classes and member stories, with permission, and share them across FlowRoll’s channels. That’s free content for you and a spotlight for your club.
- Member perks. Your members get early access to new Waves and a discount code for your club.
- A wider network. You’ll be connected to other partner clubs for open mats, drop-ins and events, so your members have more doors open to them wherever they train.
What we look for
We partner with clubs that:
- welcome beginners and visitors from other gyms
- care more about good training partners than team politics
- want to see the sport grow beyond their own four walls.
Size, affiliation and competition record don’t matter. A ten-person club in a community hall is as welcome as a big academy.
