Founded in 2021, Lifestyle Monks is a holistic private training studio located on 8 Upper Main Street, Rush, County Dublin. We specialise in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, submission grappling, yoga, fitness, and neuromuscular therapy — all taught in a predominantly barefoot environment that promotes natural movement, resilience, and wellbeing. With over 14 years of experience in coaching, therapy, and performance, we work with members from 7 to 75 years of age. Our philosophy is rooted in lifestyle interventions, movement variability, and a positive growth mindset — principles that guide both training and rehabilitation. Whether your goal is to build strength, recover from injury, or develop discipline on and off the mats, Lifestyle Monks provides a supportive, fun environment to help you reach your full potential.
Jiu-Jitsu offers far more than self-defence — it builds toughness, discipline, and community while improving fitness, strength, and coordination. With consistent training, students develop advanced techniques, a deeper understanding of the art, and greater confidence in problem-solving both on and off the mats. Whether for personal growth, self-defence, or competition, Jiu-Jitsu is a transformative journey worth starting today. Our Senior session caters for those 16 years of age and above.
Yoga is a transformative practice that builds balance, strength, flexibility, and inner calm. Beyond its physical benefits, yoga nurtures mindfulness, self-awareness, and stress relief, making it a powerful tool for both body and mind. At Lifestyle Monks we teach Hatha Yoga — a more traditional style that is accessible to all levels and stages of life. Whether your goal is improved fitness, greater peace of mind, or personal growth, yoga offers a journey that can transform your everyday life.

The physical and mental benefits of Jiu Jitsu for kids is endless. Jiu Jitsu develops important life skills such as discipline, respect, integrity, punctuality, determination, persistence, humility, cooperation and teamwork. Jiu Jitsu teaches kids to work with others and develops key social skills. Jiu Jitsu has the power to calm down a hyperactive child, increase the focus of an inattentive child and instil confidence in a shy child. Our classes focus on self defence, fitness and having lots of fun. Our kids training sessions are catered to kids aged 7-13 years old.
