Jesse Navarro

"Aloha๐Ÿค™๐Ÿฝ I came to visit family from Las Vegas and train at Aliiance/Cobrinha ๐Ÿฅ‹ I learned that my nephews have been training here and love learning from Professor Elliot and Coach Danny โค๏ธ EDHJJ has also allowed me to bring my two girls on many occasions to train with their cousins and thought it was only fitting to drop in myself ๐Ÿ˜œ Professor Elliot and his team has cultivated a family friendly and conducive learning atmosphere for all ages ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ The instruction engages students and focuses on sound techniques, but most of all, makes it enjoyable ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿฝ The gym is very tidy which speaks volumes for those worried about cleanliness ๐Ÿ˜… I highly recommend you stop in and see for yourself๐Ÿซต๐Ÿฝ You will quickly see how welcoming EDHJJ is and soak in the positive vibes.

It's asset to the community! Go build some positive structure and discipline."

David Chao

"Coach Eliot Kelly is awesome. He has been working with my son for almost 2 years. It's a great environment for learning BJJ mixed with just enough fun to keep the kids engaged."

Gibran Maciel

"I have been a member of the gym for close to three months now. I came from another gym and I have 9 years of BJJ experience, I am ranked at brown belt. I moved to EDH Jiu Jitsu because of the quality of instruction and the community that Eliot has built around the dojo is second to none in Sacramento. I travel from downtown Sacramento to El Dorado Hills to learn specifically from Eliot because of the strength of his technique and the character of the dojo. EDH BJJ has my highest possible recommendation."
