Grip Gym
Oslo

Grip Gym is a multi-discipline facility in Gamle Oslo owned by Eirik Digre. The gym combines a full general-fitness studio (cardio, weights, sauna) with dedicated combat sports training in Muay Thai, BJJ, and MMA. Muay Thai classes are led by coaches Carlos and Andreas, with Eirik personally leading MMA Basics. The model is closer to a hybrid gym than a pure Muay Thai specialist — trainees can use the same membership for general fitness and martial arts.

About the Gym

Grip Gym is positioned as a modern, well-equipped hybrid facility in Gamle Oslo. It functions simultaneously as a general fitness studio and a combat sports academy, with the same membership covering both. Equipment is described by visitors as new and professionally maintained. Owner Eirik Digre personally coaches the MMA Basics program. The Muay Thai instruction is led by Carlos and Andreas, who receive consistent positive feedback for attention to detail and individual coaching. BJJ is taught by Max and other coaches; the program receives strong reviews from visiting practitioners as well as locals. The facility has changing rooms, showers, sauna, and a clean overall environment. For visitors to Oslo, English-language access is reportedly good — multiple international reviewers (a French BJJ practitioner, English-speaking visitors) describe being able to train comfortably without Norwegian. A few caveats worth noting from public reviews: one reviewer described locker contents being discarded after extended absence (with no prior notice about locker fees, though the locker policy is the gym's prerogative). Another mentioned slow equipment repairs in the gym area and described one interaction with the owner as feeling sarcastic. These are individual reports rather than a structural pattern, but worth being aware of before signing a long-term membership.
