Of all the coaches that I’ve worked with, either in my work or in personally capacity as a father for my own children’s sport coaches, Vinc one of the best I’ve seen. He's dedicated, truly passionate about his sport and genuine about teaching. I want to thank him for taking the effort to reach out to my son Chris and affirm him when he deserves it, and tell him as it is if he can do better. In his first month, Chris was almost close to giving up and decided to give himself until end of Nov before he quits as I’ve told him I’ve already paid up for the month.

If not for Vinc personal pep talk and words of encouragement with Chris, he would have left the sport. Today, he looks forward to going for training. Though he’s still very confused with many new techniques, he gets encouraged whenever he ends each session having learnt something. Hopefully, he can stays in the sport for long. I’m hoping with his new school and his new CCA, he can still continue to stay motivated in your sport.

He respects Vinc very much and I can see why.

For me, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Vinc's S&C sessions. They’re well planned and structured, and I appreciate how he genuinely push each of us beyond what many of us thought we could achieve. That’s the difference between someone who just give instructions on activities and one who believes in the spirit of the activities.

All the best for this year!

I started attending Fort's MetCon classes more consistently since October this year. Within just a few weeks, I can already see a difference in my physique and fitness levels! The physical changes are a bonus but more importantly I've grown so much in terms of my mental tenacity.

Definitely recommend Fortitude to anyone looking to kickstart your fitness journey. The workouts are HARD but can be tailored to each individual's progress. The sense of community in the gym is incredible, everyone is so supportive and encouraging. I've never felt left behind even though I'm just a beginner.

Thanks Prof Vinc, Coach Kacie and the Fort fam for all your guidance!

My 6yo boy started BJJ with Fortitude this year in Feb. It’s like a big family here, besides their very dedicated and experience coaches, everyone else was also so welcoming and guided him like their little brother. He loves coming for training. It’s a great sport, at the same time it’s also so important to be taught the right way with the right attitude. The new gym is great too, feels really cozy! Highly recommend Fortitude!!!!

It was great training at Fortitude after I’ve stop training for nearly 4 years. Vinc is really technical and helps to break down complex techniques making it easy for every level. Everyone tries to take care of each other to avoid injuries. Overall, i really enjoy training with the team.

Our son has been with Fortitude for 3.5 years and is still looking forward to the classes everytime. Throughout these years, we can see Fort has put in alot of effort to be constantly improving be it the Profs and coaches themselves, the way they teach, the facilities and the classes they provide. The gym has become more like a family than just a gym.

If you are looking for a bjj gym with coaches that is dedicated in making you strong, push you to your limits, and make sure you improve on a daily basis then I highly recommend this gym, it goes by the name it self. Coaches with legitimate lineage, and highly decorated. You enter like a kitten but will leave like a lion.

Fortitude is a bjj school with dedicated, professional coaches in a nurturing & cosy environment. Prof Vinc obviously loves the sport & enjoys teaching.

Aside from drawing the best from their students & making them test their limits, Fort coaches continually work on themselves, to stay on top of their game & stay relevant.

When you join, you join a kickass bjj family where everyone looks out for & looks after each other.

So yes, def highly recommend Fort esp their kids class & I type with 3 years experience with them...oss! 😊

I can’t recommend Fortitude BJJ enough. I’ve been training BJJ for almost 9 months now and time really has flown by. I’m very fortunate to have found this gym as I’ve made many good friends as well as having the most passionate and helpful professors who genuinely care about their students.

There’s plenty of gyms around but here in Fort you’ll be joining a FAMILY. Everyone helps build each other up - nobody gets left behind.. and you get the pushing when you need it. I’m very grateful to be part of Fort!

Thank you Prof. Vinc and Prof. Shane. Oss!

My son was transformed from a boy full of doubts about himself to one where he realises how his life is determined by his choices and beliefs, all because of the philosophy that Fortitude embodies - no success without grit, no grit without self-belief. Prof Vinc and his team of coaches are on top of their game, and carries the sport with so much passion that my son is inspired just by the way they fight and push the fighters. Over at Fortitude, education is key to success and much as the place is competitive, everyone their embraces the spirit of learning and the seniors never fails to stop to teach whenever a teachable moment presents itself. Absolutely no regrets putting my son there. You won’t too. Many of the kids and adults there have been there for years training at Fortitude, testament to their enduring values and beliefs.

Congrats to Fort on the brand new location. At such tough times, not only to survive but to thrive! Never regretted a moment to place my 2 girls under guidance of Prof Vinc and Team. It’s a place equally ideal for the casual learners as well as the serious achievers!

Have been with this gym for few years now. Very passionate profs and coaches who are fully supporting you and enjoying sharing their knowledges. I recommend for all types of people, from serious competitors to those who just want to discover the sport and have fun.

We have been training in this gym for years and it is like a second home to us. It is true that when you join Fort, you join a family. I love the culture here where everyone is so supportive and like a family. My boys also enjoy training here and they never want to leave this gym. Thank you Prof Vinc, Prof Shane, Prof Kacie and Coach Yazid for your guidance, dedication and encouragement through the years to which I am so grateful. I am also very grateful to all my teammates.Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Wonderful training environment where you can push yourself to the limit and find support in your jiu jitsu journey from the loving and talented community!I have been training under Prof. Vinc for close to 7 years and am always motivated and heartwarmed by his dedication to coaching and interactius… he holds discipline, respect, humility and safety of each student to a very high degree, inculcating students with these core values of any martial art.The coaches all have students safety and health as their number one priority, periodically checking in as and when you are injured and tailoring the trainings to suit your needs. During the pandemic, many precautions were put in place to minimise spread of virus while allowing us to continue training and honing our techniques while keeping us safe and healthy. They also keep a lookout on more high-intensity fighters to reduce occurences of injury when pairing them with new-comers or less experienced trainees, always intervening before one succumbs to injury if things ever get out of hand.Teammates, especially the more experienced ones, are all very considerate and eager to teach techniques and i am eternally grateful to many and coaches who have aided me along my jiu jitsu journey!

Fortitude gym has been a positive place for me to learn in a great atmosphere with helpful people, which encourages me to come to the gym more often to train.I remember the first time I came to Fortitude. I instantly felt welcomed by everyone. It feels like a second home here. Everyone looks out for each other during classes and makes sure nobody gets injured. As someone who’s new to this sport, I’m grateful that both of the profs are patient with me and push me to give my best .I’m fond of the Metcon classes here too, since they curate the workouts to make sure everyone is able to do them. The instructions given are clear and understandable, and the workouts aren’t repetitive and boring.I would also highly suggest taking private lessons if you would like to learn more in depth. It’s flexible and allows an individual to learn at their own pace. Taking a private class with Prof. Kacie was so much fun, and she got me to learn what I was lacking. She provided basic techniques which helped to build my foundation. Furthermore, those were one of the most enjoyable classes I had.The gym also maintains its cleanliness as they sanitise their equipment and mats regularly. Furthermore, the location of the gym is convenient as it’s a walking distance from the Lavender MRT. I strongly advise one to try training at fortitude.

10/10 would recommend this gym.Solid, close knitted community, everyone is warm friendly and looks out for one another.Prof Vinc, Shane, Kacie are amazing profs. Clear in explaining techniques, patient in teaching , even repeating the moves multiple times for the slow learners like me. You don't just learn BJJ or self-defense, but you leave with a different mindset and fitness.The gym itself is well equipped, a few equipments for strength conditioning, and spacious mat area for rolling. Place is hygienic too, members would clean the area if the mat is sweaty from previous classes and the profs will mop the mats at the end of the day.

An absolutely fantastic Martial Arts & Fitness gym.After many years in various martial arts I joined Fortitude about a year ago to learn BJJ.Prof Vinc, Kacie and Shane welcomed me very nicely. The trainings are intense but great fun. The community in this gym is fantastic. Everyone is friendly and helps each other. It is like coming to train with brothers, sisters and best friends. The way the Profs teach the techniques, concepts and tricks of BJJ are excellent. I have only one regret, which is not having joined earlier.

Started my BJJ journey here a few months ago.Vinc is one of the best professors I have ever had the privellege to train with. He's very knowledgable, knows exactly what works and what doesn't. The upper belts are also really humble and friendly, they let me work on my techniques and are (as far as my observation goes) happy to see me and other beginners learn and improve!I walked in as a spazzy white belt who knows nothing about BJJ, - and I walk out as a slightly less spazzy white belt who still knows nothing about BJJ - but with a new found love and respect for this sport and its practicioners.
